This is a total favourite for afternoon tea inside Kensington Gardens ( not the same as the tearooms at Kensington Palace). It is v popular and you can't book - you have to queue but for me it is worth waiting to sit inside this beautiful old building - you can have lunch here too. The photos here are have been added automatically and are incorrect - The orangery is a large airy Victorian building which has not been structurally altered since it was built.

This road has a lot of Chinese restaurants as well as food from other areas. Royal China has a good reputation - not cheap - but it's fun to walk along and just pick somehwere. The bowling alley and ice rink are here too

This is where we've always got our fish and chips - it's a five minute walk down Ladbroke Grove from our place - just before you get to the underground station. You can eat inside or bring the food back home with you. This is traditional English food and it's perfect if you get into London late in the evening as it is usually open until 10pm ( though it's alwaysbest to check)

It's where William and Kate live.
It's interesting to walk around inside - but mainly it's a beautiful and iconic building. There is a cafe directly outside but there is a fantastic tea room - the Orangery very near by - worht the extra short walk! See food recommendations!

It's a huge area for strolling, biking or skateboarding. You can row a boat on the Serpentine - or take a look at the Serpentine art gallery. There are several cafes, a fantastic children's playground, the Princess Diana playground complete with huge wooden pirate ship. and the famous Diana fountain ( a stream that runs through granite) a great place to sit and dip your feet in the water on a hot day - though it can get crowded. Plenty of trees to sit under, and areas to sunbathe and there is the Round Pond for those who like bird-life!

The bookstore on Blenheim Crescent opened in 1979 and was made famous in the film Notting Hill - it was freqented by the film's direcotr who lives locally and was the inspiration for the bookshop in the film though it was not filmed there. Everyone takes selfies outside but please do go in and buy a postcard even if you don't buy a book. The original business closed down despite it's fame. But this is still a good place to buy interesting travel books. Someone has now also opened a bookstore on Portobello itself in the location where the film was actually shot at no 142 Portobello Road. This sells souvenirs.

Iconic department store. It’s part of the John Lewis group and is in Sloane Square - at the end of King’s road which was THE trendy shopping street in the 1960s and still is to some extent. It’s close to the Saatchi gallery so you could combine a visit to the gallery. And there is a nice square next to the saatchi gallery with a few cafes and restaurants which have lots of outside tables. Peter Jones is right opposite Sloane square tube which is a couple is stops on the circle line from Notting Hill Gate and sells men and women’s fashion, children’s clothes, makeup, fabric, bedlinen. carpets, crockery, glasses, coffee makers, and electronics. Most things you could possibly want and all of a good quality.
