Your favourite High Street London Pub

Just moments from Hyde Park and High Street Kensington station, our pub is a true London gem where visitors and locals alike come to enjoy traditional British hospitality. Whether you’ve spent the morning exploring the parks, shopping along Kensington High Street, or simply wandering through the neighbourhood, our doors are always open for a relaxed pint, a glass of wine, or a proper pub meal.

Inside, you’ll find the welcoming charm of a classic London local, friendly faces behind the bar, the buzz of conversation, and tables filled with guests enjoying the best pub classics, a proper London pub.

Delicious British Classic

At The Britannia, we’re proud to serve fresh, seasonal British food that celebrates the best of the traditional pub menu. Our kitchen is well known for doing the classics properly, from indulgent burgers to comforting seasonal dishes, all prepared by our talented team.

The star of the show? Our iconic fish and chips, widely loved by visitors and locals alike and one of the most popular dishes on the menu. Crisp golden batter, flaky fish, tartare sauce, curry sauce and mushy peas, it’s the perfect taste of Britain.

Alongside the classics, our seasonal specials board is always changing, offering something new for returning guests. And on Sundays, our kitchen serves up generous Sunday roasts, perfect for enjoying after a walk through Hyde Park or a day exploring Central London. Whether you’re visiting for lunch, dinner, or a leisurely Sunday meal, we’re the place for great pub food in the heart of London.

What’s On in Our Pub

There’s always something happening in our pub. Join us for Easter celebrations, May Bank Holiday gatherings, Father’s Day feasts, and of course National Fish & Chips Day, the perfect excuse to enjoy our most famous dish. From seasonal celebrations to relaxed community moments, our pub is a great place to gather throughout the summer.

Summer Drinks

Longer days call for refreshing drinks. Enjoy perfectly poured pints, crisp summer wines, and refreshing spritz cocktails, ideal for catching up with friends or unwinding after a day exploring Central London. Whether you’re stopping in for a quick drink or settling in for the evening, our bar has something for everyone.

Dog Friendly Pub in London

Four-legged friends are always welcome here. In fact, we have a few regular neighbourhood dogs who love visiting just as much as their owners. Expect water bowls, treats behind the bar, and plenty of fuss because no proper local pub would be complete without a few wagging tails.

Private Hire in London

Looking to host your get together in a pub in Central London? We offer four private and semi-private spaces perfect for gatherings of 12 to 60 guests.

The Willow Room and Monty Room, located upstairs on the first floor, offers a more private setting ideal for celebrations, corporate gatherings, and special occasions. Within the main pub, we also offer lively semi-private areas that keep you close to the atmosphere while still providing space for your group.

For warmer months, our charming Posh Alleyway provides a relaxed outdoor setting, perfect for drinks receptions, casual celebrations, or small summer gatherings.

Whatever the occasion, our team will help you plan a memorable event.
