    Built in 1840 this pub was apparently bought by Charlie Chaplin for his brother Sid. Worthy of a visit for the history buffs if you are in the area.

    Guiness and their own brew.  If you drink beer, you'll know which is which.

    What a charming neighborhood pub in London's Kensington neighborhood. It dates back to 1840 and, while tastefully updated, retains its authentic charm. The bartenders are all very nice and the beer was excellent...Great tap selection and they also serve their own brews. The food looked delicious! But we were just there for a beer, this time. We will be back!

    Pints outside!

    Years ago I got an AirBNB pad in Soith Kensington, and decided to do a little exploring up Brompton Road. Well, every neighborhood in London (and England) has its own pub, or "local", and The Zetland Arms is the one here. Once owned by Charlie Chaplin's brother, this pub is a great place to grab a pint & chill while people watching. There are now tables out on the street for a little Al Fresco action. There is a full bar with a full menu, and it's all great. Be sure to make a stop here if you find yourself in South Ken!

    Googled a pub food after a visit at nature history museum. We enjoyed the fish and chips and Sunday roasts and chicken & bacon sandwiches, and beers! Ordering the food at bar is not something we used to coming from the USA but no problem at all. People cut in front of you seems just normal here?? and you just wait until the the bartander see you. Thanks for a local lady's help. Friendly staff, who brought our orders.

    Crispy!!

    Great fish and ships.Nice ambience and perfect service. They can improve on the mens toilets though. I would recommend nonetheless.

    Steak and ale pie

    Stopped by this pub on a whim to get a pint and a pie. They didn't disappoint. Service was fast and the food tasted great. Will definitely be back when I get a chance and recommend this place!

    I came here with my family for lunch today. I really liked the ability to order/pay through the app. We noticed that quite a few items were unavailable to order through the app. We assumed that these items were either out of stock or not served during the lunch hour. My husband was a little bummed because chicken wings were among the unavailable items, and he was really looking forward to having wings. Regardless, he found a different item to order, not a big deal. Our food came out quickly, and I was AMAZED by the fish and chips. We're from Wisconsin, USA and have some REALLY good fish fry restaurants... but this was better! The batter was top notch, the chips were great too! We all really liked our meals. However, my husband was a little annoyed when he heard someone at the bar successfully order wings. I'm not sure why an item would be marked unavailable if it wasn't, so that was weird. Other than that, we had a great experience. Great food, friendly service.

    Jasper and George are the best bartenders here! Ask for them when you come! Best pub in South Kensington.

    Cromwell Tavern! I think I'll joke about this place for the rest of my life. My co-worker and I…read morewanted a place to go for a late night drink close to our hotel and this was the only place opened past midnight that we could find. It's at the bottom of a Holiday Inn, or at least, it appeared to be that way, and was a strange mish-mash of a pub. I think it was trying to feel like it was really old, yet it had the strangest collection of furniture and decor. We had a blast making fun of this tavern. Tables were laid out in sort of a weird fashion and at first we were really close to this group of 20 somethings that were fairly drunk and really obnoxious and a woman who was sitting by herself at a table for 6 who was reading a book while her food sat off to the side. The drunk group left and it got nice and quiet and so did the woman who had a better table than we did so we took her table. Nothing we drank was anything we'd ever come back for. There are way too many good pubs in London. Unless everything else is closed and this is the only option, go elsewhere!

    Good meeting place for a drink. Good selection of libations, on tap and in bottle, to slake your…read morethirst. Plenty of seating options and if you want to make it a working lunch, there's outlets nearby to grab some juice while you get some...juice. GF'ers, try the Old Mout Cider - very refreshing. The food looked (and smelled) good but it was only liquid libations for us. Great staff, everyone was friendly. Not sure what the thing about hotel guests only is, I'm sure there were other people here and they weren't checking for room keys.
