Bumpkin South Kensington

Popped in to Bumpkin after a disappointing visit in another restaurant in Kensington. Such a lovely place! It has a strong pub-like vibe but with full service and much cleaner tables. I had great fish and chips, really one of the best I've ever tried. Mussels with cider were also very good. Service was upstanding, waitress was checking in with us was fairly quick with our orders given the never of people dining. They have modest selection of wines and some non alcoholic drinks which is always a plus.i will be back for sure.

We wanted to have Sunday roast and Bumpkin was close to where we were. It turned out to be a fantastic meal. Rare roast beef slices with a fabulous horseradish sauce, Yorkies with gravy (I wouldn't have minded another couple of those), some potatoes and carrots and what I think were collard greens, and some cheese cauliflower. We finished it off with some sticky toffee pudding which was amazing. Combined with eating outside and some agreeable weather, it was a great meal! I have no idea how authentic of a Sunday roast meal it was, as I have nothing with which I can compare it, but every bite was tasty!

We arrived late on a Thursday and they kindly kept the kitchen open to feed us. Went back for Sunday roast today and it was more of the fabulous same - cosy fun atmosphere, couples, families, singles, young and old. Great quality Brit fare, friendly service. We would never eat at same place twice in 4 days especially in a town like London with so much choice but this was really solid. Thankyou people’s!

Wonderful seemingly small, quaint restaurant with outside seating and a well stocked bar at the entry. Once you enter you find its quite large with an upstairs VIP room. The chef does marvelous things with... everything... then comes the sticky toffee dessert, absolute heaven. We will make this a regular stop when we want a special treat. Did I mention the staff? Excellent and friendly.
