Sydney Arms Pub and Brasserie in Kensington and Chelsea

Attempted to visit on Sunday evening, most of the tables were sticky and tv volume was at full blast. Very rough atmosphere. The two girls behind the counter had a bad attitude and didn’t know what they were doing. Asked for a bottle of Picpoul and didn’t know what it was. When I told her white wine she opened the fridge and I could see some already poured glasses, some wine inside the metal pourers in the middle of a messy fridge. It did put me off and left straightaway. They didn’t question it simply couldn’t care less.

My other half and I had spent a day at the V&A museum and decided to head back towards Sloane Square to find a quieter place for a bit of late lunch and stumbled across this gem of a pub. It was exactly what we were looking for: a relaxing atmosphere, filling food, and excellent dessert. My partner had the steak sandwich, medium rare, and it was cooked to perfection and I was very jealous of her meal as it looked incredible. We stayed longer than intended and left very satisfied and well fed. The manager was also very friendly and chatty and filled us in on the brilliant, homemade sticky toffee pudding which was just as good as he said. Would absolutely go again.

Went on Tuesday the bartender skai was so smiley and helpful. Food was good and had a nice vibe. Would recommend x

My wife and I popped into this pub for a Sunday lunchtime drink as it was a very hot day. I’m a lager drinker and I knew it sold at least one good one. However when ordering our drinks I was told, ‘sorry we’ve sold out of Peroni,’ Ok I thought, I’ll have a pint of Madri, I got the same answer. Well in that case I’ll try the Asahi, once again, sold out. Ok I said, what bottled lager do you have? Only Corona zero, I was told. The explanation was the pub had been very busy because of the hot weather and Royal Ascot had been showing on the tv. Well forgive me if I’m wrong, but the race meeting runs every year, and the hot weather was forecast 2 weeks prior. Needless to say we took our custom to The Chelsea Potter in Kings Road who had all beers available, and had a better choice. We won’t bother returning during the summer, because it’s clearly a lottery whether they’ve ordered enough beer.

Fast and efficient service. Hannah was absolutely lovely and informative. Will definitely be coming back

Amazing food great customer serives ... its one of best old real pub Thanks to luke and team for looking after us Great value of food ..

Red head behind the bar was amazing along with the other Russian bartender. Happy time and accommodating staff

Lunch for seven, food for five arrives in reasonable time, two people have to wait until the first five have finished. My first polite complaint was greeted with laughter, staff too busy watching the TV set. Had there been a service charge i would have refused to pay it. I did say read Trip Adviser next week so here it is.

Gorgeous pub in the middle of Chelsea that has top quality food, a warm and relaxed ambience, and the absolute BEST staff. Highly recommend The Sydney Arms if you're looking for a genuine and authentic British pub in the heart of London - also showing sporting events! Cannot wait to go back - thanks team for a brilliant evening!

What a cosy little pub in a great location! Super attentive staff and fabulous owners! 10/10 would go back again with family and friends.

Over £10.60 for a pint and a half of Amstel, rip off and the place is filthy. Would never go back hete

This used to be a lovely fun pub. Hopefully it will be one day again. Our experience was a bad one. Warm beer - at bonkers prices (£7 a pint) and really really average food. No doubt the pandemic has meant it’s been a struggle for businesses but can’t see many returning until standards improve. Staff are still super friendly but it’s clear the closedown has affected this place.

We spent the afternoon here for ascot ladies day. The service was great and the bar food was lovely especially the goujons. However one the racing finished Ann’s people obviously returned from ascot it was dreadful. The COVID rules required table service only however the owner and manager allowed too many people in and were servicing people at the bar with no masks. It made us feel extremely uncomfortable. I challenged the owner as we left and he said he can’t stop people doing what they want..he was extremely arrogant and should have been in control. My only other comment is that the toilets are disgusting. Such a shame our day ended that way.

If you want some music and fun, then come here. Amazing place for a late night drink. A special mention for Martha and Jessica. A credit to the pub and London hospitality.

Place has no soap on loo even during a global pandemic. Little man running it has power issues. Decides who is under 18 based on his sub intelligence rather than I.D.

£10.00 for the tiniest gin and tonic with no Ice. Staff not friendly. A bit upset as had only hear good things usually.

Maravilloso pub, relativamente barato para los precios de Londres, pero un personal increíblemente acogedor y encantador que fue extremadamente amable y apoyó a uno de mis compañeros que tuvo un episodio médico allí. En general, recomendaría el 100% de cualquier cosa, desde una sesión larga hasta una bebida rápida después del trabajo.

Busqué un pub para ver Royal Ascot en televisión con mi hermana y me encontré con Sydney Arms. Un buen hallazgo, agradable interior y ambiente, deliciosos bocados ligeros. Televisores grandes, pero definitivamente un mercado más alto para ver las carreras en comparación con muchos bares deportivos.

Crowds on the street and busy place with loads of atmosphere. Just off The Kings Road. Worth a visit.

Lively and buzzing on an early summer's evening. That's it though really. Service no better than OK, two of the better draught beers were off and we got charged two totally different prices for the same drinks?

Para una casa libre fue decepcionante tener 3 cervezas muy similares y ninguno de los 2 que probé eran brillantes y claros.El personal no era muy acogedor y me sorprendió que no hubiera una caja de caridad para cambiar, especialmente con un hospital enfrente y Marsden a la vuelta de la esquina.

Visité aquí para ver el Cheltenham Racing Festival, un gran ambiente y una buena selección de bebidas. Almorzamos que también fue muy bueno. Un montón de pantallas de televisión alrededor del pub para disfrutar de la acción, un pub temático de carreras de caballos y recomendaría una visita si desea ver algunas carreras de caballos. . .

A really welcome change from all of the chain pubs out there, the staff were great, the beer was good and the interior was lovely, reminded me of what a pub should be. Good bar snacks

We were visiting the Royal Bromton and needed a drink, this pub is directly across the road.My wife had a decaf coffee, I had a fruit cider (bottle) - £7.90My wife needed to ask for the coffee grounds to be filtered. The interior would benefit from some refurbishment. The staff were nice and friendly. Popped in due to convenience, but would not recommend.

¡Buena noches! Si está buscando un lugar para disfrutar, este pub es una buena opción. Puedes probar platos típicos ingleses y comida extravagante, por ejemplo, faisán. ¡Pasé una noche aquí con mis amigos bebiendo cerveza y comiendo una comida muy buena! ¡Echa un vistazo a todos! ?

Mientras exhibíamos en el Old Town Hall, Chelsea recientemente visitamos este pub para comer algo mientras esperábamos nuestra exhibición privada de nuestra Exposición de Arte en el Old Town Hall.Mi esposa tenía la pizza, nuestro amigo tenía la hamburguesa de pollo y yo tenía la hamburguesa estándar, servida con papas fritas.Con todo, la comida estaba bien, no era genial, pero con 4 pintas de cerveza la factura para llegar a más de 66 con un 12 "opcional". 5% de cargo por servicio (llegó a más de 7. 00) Pensé que esto era demasiado exagerado.

Llamado aquí para tomar una bebida y desearía no haberme molestado, el lugar está tan destartalado que no es un lugar agradable para sentarse, y no podía salir lo suficientemente rápido.

Overpriced wines which were not properly chilled. The decor is tired and the leather benches need recovering

Excellent pub, especially on a nice day with everyone outside. Helpful staff, good drinks. I would definitely return.

Bel pub in zona Chelsea, grande selezione di birra, Personale gentile e prezzi nella media. Esperienza Da provare!

Enjoying our drinks on this Sunday evening while watching the French football league. Marseille = 2 PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN = 2 Staff are good

Whilst in London, for my birthday, my wife and I popped into the Sydney arms for a quick drink. Several hours with left, great friendly service, superb food and somewhere to watch the world go by

Sunday evening and a dinner with partner and daughter. I have visited this place before and liked it as a gastro pub with a horse racing theme.

A small family gathering prior to a ceremony at Chelsea Town Hall. Great service, good small helpings of delicious food (asparagus) and a real pub atmosphere. Definitely to be recommended

Pasamos un sábado por la tarde aquí, y vimos algunas carreras. Conocimos algunos amigos y comimos el cangrejo más increíbles de langosta/y patatas fritas. Suficiente para nosotros dos en £20. También a media pinta de Newmarket salchichas. Increíble. Volveremos. En un entorno encantador en el Chelsea.

We are enjoying our drinks ( Birra Moretti and Coke ) on this late Friday night ( around 22:30 ) Toilets could be better The staff are good 😊 , Thank you Shayma

Después de una tarde de la liberación que fue rodado aquí Marsden en la recomendación de uno de los consultores. Habíamos llegado en sólo como una función privada carrera pr han terminado. Simples bocadillos - huevo scotch pato, sal y pimienta, calamares y alas de pollo. Simple y bien cócteles preparados.

The fish and chips were a bit bland and the beer was almost warm. Maybe I'm just used to cold beer and the beer in London is supposed to be warm? Also, we ordered a lobster & crab roll but it was odd. Mostly a...

We went there on a sunny noon and luckily we had booked a table at the garden. Very good service very cozy place. Kids enjoyed the scrambled eggs and sausages. The adults all went for the Sunday roast beef. Juicy Beef slices served with roast...

Un grupo de nosotros fuimos a almorzar. Sólo pudimos estar durante poco más de una hora. Todo el mundo estaba servido, excepto 4. Cuando llegó al punto de cuando teníamos que salir para reunirse con otras personas el 4 de nosotros pedimos nuestro dinero. Una...

We went there for dinner and the food was outstanding! We had the lamb special on the menu and it was utterly delicious. Lovely pub with friendly and helpful bar staff. Thank you - we will definitely be back!

I eat here fairly regularly. It is consistently good pub grub. From the calamari, to the shrimp and avocado on toast to the chicken and chorizo risotto. Prices are reasonable and usually the clientele is a mix of old and young enjoying a drink or meal, from the local area. Sometimes, unfortunately, you get the pretentious youth who speak to loud about their hedge fund jobs and trust funds. Overall, a great pub.

Quick dinner stop with my wife before seeing our kid perform at St Luke's next door - we were impressed. Good beer, friendly staff, an interesting 'other era' atmosphere of a few old Chelsea horse racing types around. We had a drink and simple but well made meal (scampi, nice fries with some lovely veg sides) and enjoyed an hour there. Does what a pub should do - and without West End pretence or prices.

Nice bar friendly staff just of King's Road food is good as well. Reasonable size but can be overcrowded guess it's very popular with the local..Over all a nice bar.

A real local treat. Although I live overseas I maintain a home in Chelsea and this is the place! If you are interested in horse racing this is for you. Great gastro pub food, great staff, great service and a friendly boss. A place to go before popping the short question!

Just popped in for a pint and ended up having lunch. The food was amazing and portions are massive. Great little PH and well worth a visit.

If you have never had a half pint of sausages, a pint of Landlord and a list of mini bar food goodies, you've missed the Sydney Arms.Like most Chelsea pub, it is crowded and cramped but in this case, there are nooks and crannies that you can reserve and enjoy the rest squashed next to the bar.The pub grub is terrific, particularly the scallops and min-fish and chips. Kids and wheelchairs are catered for and the atmosphere is less banker and more cosmopolitan footie fans.The staff are almost always Italian, French or other European, so it is a great place to avoid Brexiteers and the service is terrific.The Landlord ale is always good and they have guest ales which for the most part have been worthy of my supping.A fantastic variety of fresh, well prepared food and a jovial atmosphere.

We had lunch with some friends... it was a great London afternoon so we found a table outside. The food was good but service wasn't the best (not bad... average). The best was the outside area, but if we had to go inside I would have gone somewhere else.

I visited this Pub on Sunday 24th April 2016 to watch Leicester City play Swansea (Leicester won 4 - 0) I drank Timothy Taylor €4.50 a pint. The staff were friendly and helpful. The place was clean and there were plenty of TV'S playing the football.

we ate here as we were visiting the Brompton hospital opposite and it was convenient. given all of the other lovely places to eat near by it was a mistake.drinks ok but not cheap. ambience ok. food horrid. My sister ordered steak and ale pie - it was warm not hot when it arrived and the filling was over 20 pickled cocktail onions and 1 piece of steak! revolting. she had to take it back as it was inedible. I had fish and chips which was ok - but at £13.50 you could get a nicer meal at Bumpkin over the road.

Called in here whilst looking for somewhere to eat , drinks ordered - one sent back as not fit to drink , ordered food which Tasted good but was barely lukewarm . The staff were pleasant enough , maybe we just caught them on an off night but certainly nothing to write home about .

Located on Sydney Street which runs between the Kings Road and the Fulham Road and opposite the Royal Brompton Hospital (RBH) is the Sydney Arms. Reasonable selection of beers and the grub is quite good. We had a "welsh rabbit" which is another name for cheese on toast washed down with a pint of Guinness. It also has a number of televisions dotted around the pub which show most sports. Worth stopping for a pint.

Busy, buzzy local sports pub. Service a little hit and miss, but always a great atmosphere with the locals spilling on to the pavement, catching the last of the sun as it bends around the corner. Haven't eaten in here, but the beer is always well kept.

A very understatedly stylish venue, popular with local residents, but with food on offer that should open it up to a much wider crown. Some of the dishes on the menu are unexpected, a pleasant surprise. Some seating outside and large open windows make it a pleasant spot in the summer.

Went in for a drink yesterday evening - pint of Kronenberg + a can of diet coke - £9.90.Never again.

After working just down the road from this pub for ages, I didn't always give it much thought walking past. However, since visiting I am now hooked. The bar snacks and starters side of the menu is extensive, the most wonderful food and reasonably priced. It is also one of the last independent pubs which is a pleasure to support.

A regular favourite of mine. Try the frogs legs and get stuck into their great house wines. I can recommend the Red, the Rose and the White. They also do great pizzas and lots of good bar nibbles if you fancy a more tapas style meal.

Stopped into the "Arms" on a Sunday evening after finding out our restaurant of choice closed early. We were welcomed in and the friendly bartender offered tastes of the 4 ales on tap; none of which I cared for. I did meet a delightful Chelsea Pensioner at the bar who kept insisting that the best beer in pub was Heineken! Not exactly the English Ale experience I was looking for. Well, the Pensioner was so much fun that I had to take his advice. I ordered a beef pie with a wonderful puff pastry crust. It was delicious. my wife ordered a chicken pie with a crust of cheesy potatoes that she described as OK. Friendly, welcoming place...nice after a long flight from Ohio.

ambiente carino, buona birra, buone patate fritte, staff gentile (e una italiana che per chi parla pochissimo inglese non è male) e prezzo giusto. Alle 23 chiude, come mi sembra di aver capito fanno tutti i pub a Londra

Felt comfortable being alone here and enjoyed the interesting menu and good wine. Th service efficient and pleasant and glad I popped in.

A very nice local pub in the heart of Chelsea serving good and an interesting range of draught beers. Friendly service and a nice atmosphere. Just off the Kings Road so a nice place for a spot of lunch or a drink away from the crowds on the main drag.

visited here many times whilst staying in london whilst my husband was in the royal brompton hospital ! busy little pub , had food here which was lovely and good value , staff were all very friendly and polite ! was nice to sit outside and have a relaxing drink after visiting my husband , would definietly return here

We decided that we would go to a pub for dinner tonight and in walking around the neighborhood found The Sydney Arms. Seemed quite busy but they were able to accommodate us in spite of some football game that was live on TV. We ordered the scampi appetizer and the roasted tomato/red pepper soup - both of which were quite good. The scampi come out looking like deep fried scallops but once you get beyond the batter, it is a portion of the scampi inside. My partner's main was steak and frite (rib eye) with your choice of peppercorn or bernaise sauce on the side - he ordered it medium rare and it came out medium at best, more like well done and the peppercorn sauce had about 3 or 4 green peppercorns floating around in the sauce which was tasteless. I was a bit luckier - I ordered one of the specials: the half order of cornish lobster thermidor with fries - the fries were tasteless and the salad that accompanied the lobster had dirty leaves throughout. The lobster dish itself was quite nice. And not once did either of the two young waitresses come and inquire about our meals. When it came time to pay, it turned out that they brought the wrong bill which we paid....only looking at it more closely did we realize that it was not our bill. That then created a problem as neither one of the waitresses knew how to go into the credit card machine and void that particular transaction. They offered to refund the incorrect bill but why so we could get caught on currency exchange. We ended up paying the difference between the two bills. Not impressed one little bit....think the staff/management is more concerned about getting people in there to drink and watch football....don't bother going - lots of other pubs about.

Ask to change 2 beer cause not cold enough . The answer from the bar man was : it is what it is. I said :it is what it is?And he repeat again : it is what it is.I said thank you. Never again.Also dirty toilets .

Il Sydney Arms si trova nel cuore di Chelsea e l'atmosfera che ho potuto apprezzare in questo locale è veramente british. Dal momento che la zona in cui è situato in una zona piuttosto residenziale, non è un pub pieno di turisti piuttosto è frequentato soprattutto da abitanti del quartiere. In modo in particolare, durante la serata in cui ho cenato qui, c'erano molti tifosi di calcio intenti a bere comodamente birra, guardando la propria squadra del cuore sui numerosi schermi che vanta il Sydney. Il fish and chips è davvero ottimo e consiglio anche il soufflé al cioccolato.

It's a nice pub for a drink (which is pricy) but the food is pretty *hite. Expensive and poor quality. We wouldn't eat there again

I rarely eat at this pub but given I had an hour to spare I gave it a go.... To much disappointment. The burger, dry as anything, no seasoning whatsoever, no herbs, nothing... just a very dry minced meat burger sucked dry of all its flavouring. Brioche bun was also stale, just overall a rubbish meal. The sticky ribs didn't do much justice either. It isn't hard to cook ribs well but clearly here it was rocket science, again a rubbish meal. For a pint its ideal, anything else I would pass!On the upside, good service, waiters/waitresses were very pleasant.

This independently owned pub is best for beers and bar snacks but the steak and chips is usually good too. Great atmosphere, mainly a younger group than me but always something happening there.

This is generally a cracking pub with excellent food and I would generally recommend this however the Timothy Taylor's 'Landlord' beer we chose was terribly cloudy and should not have been brought to our table. Was it poor quality service or knowingly deliberate? Most experienced bar staff would see the beer was 'not right' and offer an alternative. Not in this case...however in balance a replacement was requested and brought without quibble and the food was terrific.P.S. Don't be fooled into thinking you can park nearby. The car park in Sydney street takes just 80 cars and is chocca from early morning. The rest is residents parking and the traffic wardens swarm like flies round a carcass.

Our hotel in London was quite near the Sydney Arms so we visited it several times. The cask beer selection was great and delicious. The food was good and served quickly. It seems a local hangout for people who are a bit younger than are we, but that was not ever difficult or intimidating. A lovely place.

Des pubs, me direz-vous, ce n’est pas ce qui manque à Londres. Mais, le Sydney Arms a Chelsea marque sa différence. Un accueil des plus sympathiques par l’ensemble du staff. Bien sûr, vous y trouverez forcément la bière qui vous convient, mais surtout n’hésitez pas à vous poser pour y dîner (il est prudent de réserver une table), la carte, sans être ostentatoire, vous offre une cuisine bien préparée et d’excellente facture. Attention, les soirs de match, football ou rugby, c’est blindé.

On a week-long visit to London, our tour guide recommended this pub. It was near our hotel, Myhotel Chelsea, and we stopped by on two evenings for drinks. It had a special atmosphere and not touristy and the staff was very friendly. That's why we came twice. Special tip: just cozy up to the bar and ask one of the staff to draw you a pint of their 'finest' bitters. Then strike up a conversation with a local and enjoy a special evening!

To be honest, we only go there for lunch so this review is specifically for lunchtimes at this pub - but that said, it has friendly service, terrific bar food and an excellent, slightly 'country bumpkin' atmosphere about it, particularly when there is a football match on

J adore l ambiance anglaise de cette brasserie pub à taille humaine . Le cadre est chaleureux on s y sent bien . Les verres de vin sont de vrais verres de vin les plats sont bons . Si vous aimez les courses et le matchs de foot et rugby les jours des grands événements sportifs et hippiques ambiance assurée !!! Le tout dans cet endroit chic sans trop en faire . Restons simple et convivial entre gens biens . Bref j aime ..... Le service est très sympathique le personnel attentif l équipe est souriante et agréable . Les prix sont très raisonnable une bonne adresse

Ci hanno portato in questo locale xke volevamo far provare un buon fish&chips alla nostra bimba e devo dire che ha rispettato le aspettative. Veramente ottimo e i dolci superlativi!

Located just off the King's Road, close to the Royal Marsden, this is a quintessential "Hurray Henry" pub. Large TV screens were showing the Ashes and, on the mid-July Thursday lunchtime we were there, the clientele were 95% male, middle aged, public school and all very pukka; "Made In Chelsea" it was not. Outside every other car was a black Range Rover with drug dealer windows, the rest were Ferraris with pass through exhausts.The pub has some nice al fresco seating but the black metal tables in the sun were too hot to touch so the interior with punkahs on the ceiling made a cool eating place in both senses of the word. .Visited with my interning daughter in the middle of the working day: one slightly small but tasty pepperoni pizza, one lemonade and one ginger beer, £17.00 is that good value? The pizza was thin and crispy but took the best part of 20 minutes to arrive - how hard can it be?.St Luke's church Portico Cafe and garden next door with a sandwich would have been a good alternative.

This pub is perfectly situated across from St Luke's Church and the Chelsea Gardner. Sunny afternoons have the patio full. Great wine list, actually rather impressive for a pub. Also, cold beers and solid good food. I went back twice during my stay in Chelsea. You have to serve yourself at the bar. But the staff are friendly and efficient and show great flexibility with moving chairs outside on sunny days!

I write that because the pub's owner owns at least two horses, and the TV sets are tuned to races (with sound off). People from the very mixed Chelsea neighborhood gather here for a typical gastropub dinner with a wide range of beers and ales. Ordinary people like us and a group of extremely well-dressed men in their 50s were standing around talking. These streets in Chelsea are littered with Ferraris, Maseratis, Aston-Martins, and Porches, but this independent neighborhood pub — which means it's not owned by a massive brewery chain — is a gathering place, one of the old-time pubs.

Met up at Sydney arms with some friends visiting London - they picked this place because they wanted to see the rugby game. I wish I had eaten before.. Very poor roasted chicken - greasy and total lack of flavours. Fries were soft and tasteless. I tried one of my husband's mini burgers and it was terrible too. This place is really just for drinks and watching sports. I will not judge the service as this place was a madhouse because of the game, maybe it is better on a normal day.

This pub is great. My friend recommended it to me, and I took a couple of mates for a pair of pints and some food. The bar is busy with obvious locals, and has a nice atmosphere, not too noisy but a bit of a buzz. We had some of the snack menu items whilst we chilled drinking our brace of beers, which were great. There is some great options, like half a pint of cocktail sausages, deep fried squid, pint of prawns and the best scotch egg i have ever had.Really nice pub with good atmosphere and great bar snacks, would definitely return next time i'm in Chelsea.

Had dinner in the Sydney Arms last night with an old friend, excellent food, service and atmosphere and very good value. I had the home made cottage pie which was excellent and my friend had a delicious steak, followed by the chease board. The interior is very well designed, reminiscent of a Parisian bar. I would certainly recommend this bar to anyone.

Un pub très sympa. L'équipe est très accueillante et attentionnée. Les plats sont savoureux et les bières bien choisies et excellentes.Le cadre est chaleureux.Un peu en retrait de king"s road, c'est une très bonne adresse.On a bien envie d'y retourner d'ailleurs.

I rented a flat around the corner and stumbled on this terrific pub/brasserie. The service was welcoming and friendly. I was dining alone and the staff made me feel very comfortable. I found the food and wine to be top notch and a definite step above "pub fare." The Chelsea location, just off the Kings Road on Sydney Street, makes this a convenient stop for shoppers.

Lovely proper pub, delicious food, friendly staff, will definitely visit again. This pub was showing the Rugby which was great because it wasn't too busy and we had a delicious lunch whilst watching the game. Great find!

Went here as part of a wedding group. We all loved it . Tons of champers and nibbles. They reserved a section for us and turned on the fans as we were all over dressed. This might be my new Chelsea sneaky pint.

this is a horse pub... meaning those that love watching the racing who arent at the meets will be here, with lots of tv's showing the races. If there is football on they will show this on one screen so dont worry if you love both. They even have their own race horse. The staff are friendly, the bar snacks are phenomenal... lots of different ideas whether they be mini fish and chips to newmarket cocktail sausages its a lot more exciting than a packet of crisps. the beer selection i believe is good, but i am drinking the wine..... without knowing the official name order the rose with bycycle on the label.. they will know what you mean... a great blush.This is also a brasserie so if you want something more to eat you have the tables at the back, and with tables outside as well its a friendly corner pub, without too many pretentious drinkers (considering the chelsea crowd arent too far away)

A group of us all had drinks and dinner here and all the food was poor. It looked nice, but was all so incredibly bland. I don't know where they get their products from, but think they need to rethink their suppliers. Can honestly say i've had tastier food in hospital. Had to send my luke warm steak back. It's expensive food too.We also had to keep serving ourselves, after waiting very long times went and found our own menus, went to the bar to order a round, went back to the bar to ask for someone to come and take another drinks order from us. I wouldn't eat here again. Also for the fact that I wrote them a physical letter (they're not on email) to give them a chance, two months later I still haven't heard back. I wouldn't recommend this place. A shame as I wanted to visit for years only to be a bit embarrassed for my colleagues over in the UK on a work trip.

Sono stata in questo piccolo e intimo pub di Sydney Street a pranzo. Il menù è ricercato, tra piatti tipici inglesi e qualche piatto francese. Le escargot nel tegame erano veramente molto buone. Nonostante l'ambiente chic, ci sono gli schermi per seguire i match sorseggiando una buona birra inglese.Peccato l'abbiano dipinto di nero, era molto più caratteristico tutto blu.

Been to the Sydney Arms a couple of times after work at approx 7-7.30pm.The staff were friendly and we were seated in the cozy dining area which is the other side of the busy and bustling bar. Service was excellent on both visits and the food of a decent gastropub standard.Prices were not cheap, but not unreasonable for Chelsea.The dining area is quite small and all tables occupied on both visits so you're probably advised to book a table.

One of our friends recommended this place to us when we visited London. We'd been doing some shopping on the Kings Road and its two mins walk down from Chelsea Town Hall/Heals. We had an excellent lunch - squid to start - my wife had sea bass and I had entrecote steak. Great choice of wines. Staff very friendly and helpful. Owner was chatty and seemed a bit of a character. Thought we spied racing legend Peter O Sullevan a few tables down from us. Highly recommended when in Chelsea. Sensible prices for London. Loads of tvs - apparantly its a good place to catch football, rugby etc..
