Whits

21 Abingdon Road, Kensington, London, W8 6AH

Whits Restaurant and Bar provides modern French and British cooking in a light, airy setting just off High Street Kensington. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly where diners could sit back and enjoy a meal or a drink at the bar. It also benefits from its unique location close to major attractions like the Odeon Cinema, Royal Albert Hall, Holland Park and Kensington Palace. As a prelude to a hearty meal, expect to find a wide array of starters such as fondant of salmon and red peppers with anchovy and shallot salad, or petit steak tartare with allumette potatoes. This could be followed by crisp confit and roast breast of duck with braised red cabbage, dauphine potatoes and honey cumin jus, or roast tuna with piquillo peppers, chorizo and haricot beans and brandade fritter.

The dessert list has a distinct Mediterranean feel with a cappuccino crème brûlée and tiramisu and praline ice cream, and hot banana soufflé with mango sorbet.

Whits does not neglect the time honoured English custom of celebrating Sunday lunch, and they also offer a daily changing, prix fixe menu in the evening.

REVIEWS OF Whits

Emmajn100 (12 May 2011)

Whits is great! The food is fantastic quality and Eva and Steve are fabulous hosts. We try and go at least once a week.

Sarah (11 August 2007)

The Whits is our favourite local restaurant by a mile. The menu changes regularly but always includes great steaks, as well as innovative seafood dishes (e.g. langoustine risotto with tempura scallops). Eva is the manageress and general personality - always warm and bubbly even when the restaurant is busy. This is a great place for excellent food, reasonable wine and friendly service. About £40 a head for three courses and wine - oh and the home made ice-cream was delicious!
