Best London Restaurants within a 5 minute walk of Kew Gardens Station | Ratings, Reviews & Maps

Love this place. We found it on the off chance last year while driving home through Kew and went back today, and it was just as good. The area is really nice and the restaurant has an authentic French feel. Staff are all friendly and helpful, and the food was fresh, well presented, and super tasty. The liver was soft, perfectly cooked and tasty, the Hake was fresh with a lovely prawn sauce, everything was amazing. Thank guys, I'm sure we'll be back.

This restaurant have dinner and lunch options, friendly staff serving food to the table (Available in 2&3 couse meals). The food was absolutely wonderful, juicy steak and comforting soups, I personally think that this restaurant has a very reasonable price for what you get. Worth it!! Recomendations for 2&3 couse meals FOR LUNCH: Starter: Homemade soup of the day Main: Rib Eye Steak (Medium Rare). Be Aware: £7 suppliment required (fact up-to-date on day of review) Dessert: Plum and pistachio tart 12.5% Service charge required.

Great Wi-Fi quality, is full signal! I liked the Irish beef fillet very much😄and the light 💡 in restaurant too, there’s a butterfly style one. The server was cute and humorous haha.

Very well cooked food, French classics. Service a little too keen to clear away mid meal, but the food is very well done. Not inexpensive, but a good Sunday lunch option

Ok, negatives, or should I say the one and only negative out of the way first. The service by all waiting staff was excellent but could be a little more aware that you were waiting to order. But once that was over, the maitre'd and the other two ladies were always on hand to help. Now the food. Excellent is all I can say. I've eaten French food North, South, East, West, and Central France, and I'd say it was the measure if not better than all the little bistros I've eaten in over the years. The scallops were fresh with a rich creamy sauce followed by the chicken breast with an equally decadent sauce, tarragon pesto fried gnocchi and tasty accompanying vegetables and potato gratin. I finished with the crepes suzette and vanilla ice cream and a generous shot of Grand Marnier. Definitely try Ma Cuisine and enjoy the welcoming cosy atmosphere, excellent food, and overall excellent service.

Great! We live nearby and have eaten here many times over the years. The food is always amazing and freshly prepared. For breakfast we regularly take the eggs Royale. For lunch I have had the fish cake, pie, chicken burger and pizzas and can recommend them all. It is not the cheapest restaurant in Kew but the atmosphere is great and the food very good quality.

I really love this find! It’s so cute and the food was amazing! This place has the best burnt basque cheesecake ever. My friends and i had a great time 🤍

We were rather underwhelmed by this place. The food is good, but not outstanding and it certainly does not meet the high prices. We (two adults and one child) tried the pizza, which was fine, three starters, the Whisky & maple cured pork tomahawk, duck fat chips and one glass of wine and this came to over £90. The pork was around £25 and it was basically a few cuts of meat and two bits of grilled corn. It certainly didn't feel like a £25 entrée. Value for money for us wasn't there and the service was average.

Nice food, really loved the Turkish eggs (see photo)/ fresh pressed juices are a bit expensive though (6 pounds each)! still would recommend for breakfast / brunch and lunch!

We had our lovely Lunch time on Saturday, ordered a few breakfast dishes along with the Pepperoni and meat pizza. Drinks were amazing, I really enjoyed the late art skills from the bartenders. Lovely staff, I believe our server was a manager (red shirt) really good service good recommendation on wines. COMING BACK FOR SURE!!!

It was busy when I got there, and definitely easy to see why. The barista still took the time to give everyone some latte art in their coffee. Really nice place to visit.

Nice latte and mocha. Service was efficient albeit a little brusque. We also got a raspberry brownie, but there was no discernible raspberry flavour. Ambience was relaxing.

Lovely place, great coffee, nice outside area when warmer. Friendly staff normally. Music often vibes funky Mediterranean or Middle Eastern. Shame they STILL don't have a hook in the toilet for a handbag etc after I have mentioned. Must have been designed by a guy right? Huh? Will they read this ...? Let's see

The place is really beautiful and the staff are so nice and friendly. I went on Sunday morning so it was a bit busy and it took around 20-30 minutes to get the food ready but it was worth it. The taste is amazing and you will have a great day by starting at this cafe. Highly recommended :)

Lived nearby all my life and never been before. Came back to visit and I wish I discovered it sooner. The sandwiches you can have toasted are stunning and full of fresh ingredients so you really get your money worth. We also had the brûlée cheesecake which was amazing. Wish we could have come back more.

Very nice and not expensive chips and fish. Love it. You definitely will be satisfied with their big portions.
Serghei Tiutiunic - 4 months ago

Stopped by for lunch. The owners and staff members were friendly. Ordered fish and chips, and chicken kebab. Both were delightful. The fish was great but the chips were just OK. The price was decent for the amount of generous portion. Both dishes came with some veggie on the side. This restaurant is right by the Kew station.

I seriously love my fish and chips and this was hands down the best fish and chips I’ve ever had in my life. Everything was completely made to order and boy was it worth the wait. The batter was so crispy but not greasy and the fish was so juicy and succulent in the middle. It was literally cooked to perfection. The chips were amazing too. Not to crispy and not to soggy. A perfect blend and you can tell they use really good potatoes. Really friendly service in lovely little area. Just a shame I don’t live closer as would be here every Friday! Highly recommend!!

The fish and chips was delicious. We had the haddock and cod. Very fresh. Would certainly go back again. Our server/cook/cashier is very friendly and polite.

Absolutely delicious with extremely friendly staff with a smile. If you're visiting and want fish and chips -- look no further!! The fish is fresh and tender and the batter crisp and just right. Portion size is great too. You can't go wrong with the haddock or cod. 10/10!!

Had a lovely portioned cod and chips. The fish looked golden and had a really good taste. Will visit again when around the area!

Hands down the best Fish and Chips I’ve ever had. I had the Cornish Pasty which is not industrialised, but looks and tastes home made, deliciously seasoned and fresh. The Cod was the most flaky, juicy with super crispy crust and the chips were on the same level, chunky and soft on the inside but crispy on the outside. They made it to order and nothing was left sitting on the counter. I more than 100% recommend it. They seem to be a family business and have very good customer service, very attentive and quick. The space is sweet and yes, it could have a bit more to the decor but at the end of the day, the food and service is what matter the most, and they definitely excel! The large Cod portion is massive, they put a whole fillet + another chunky piece, with loads of chips.

Food was tasty, but not cheap and small portions of some of the dishes. Over £40 for two people.

The pizza was too hard, couldn't even cut it with the roller they provided at the table and also not with the table knife, it was extremely difficult.. don't remember what I ordered, posting this review after three weeks

Have been to Pizza Express several times and always left feeling unimpressed There is nothing wrong with their food or service but there is nothing special And it it's very expensive when compared to other pizza places in London where you get more of everything for few less quids.
alex the great - 5 months ago

Can’t recommend for a place to go out for dinner. Only recommend if have kids as restaurant is very child friendly. Pizza is good, although pizzas almost too thin but if you like that then quality is good. Prices have gone up massively at pizza express. Over £18 for some. Plenty of much better and authentic Italian pizzas to go to instead. Restaurant seemed quite dirty, used napkins on floor. Service poor - waiters forget things, seemed uninterested. Always very busy so they much make lots of money but go somewhere else unless you want a quick meal.

Found ourselves in the town after a tour of Kew Gardens and was looking for a place to eat. Came across Pizza Express and decided to give it a try. We were not disappointed. Food was very good and the service was very good as well. Glad we decided to give it a try

The place is very crowded on Sunday, but the drink are totally worth waiting. Had caramel waffle latte with whipped cream, my weekend guilty pleasure. It is very tasty and very sweet

Nice Starbucks! Stopped by to grab some drinks and snacks. Had the Matcha Frappuccino and Peach Iced Tea. Both were great and the baristas/staff members were friendly and very speedy. One of the few stores that open a bit later in the area but with limited seating especially after 6/6:30 PM. Overall it was great and not too crowded while we were there.
Han Stw - a year ago

Ordered drinks and then 2mins later told "we are closing this section off". Given that the space is limited and some of the available space had the stools already on the table this was a shabby thing to do. This was over an hour before the closing time. The place is run for the convenience of the staff rather than customers. Fortunately there are plenty of alternative coffee shops nearby, so bye bye Starbucks in Kew.
Andrew Hall - 2 weeks ago

5 stars for the brewed coffee. Fresh, hot, tasty. Staff will brew a fresh pot if needed. Dogs allowed. Honestly, sometimes you just need 20oz of coffee. 😳
Thomas Maufer - 2 months ago

Nice Starbucks near the idyllic key gardens station. Food/coffee is typical Starbucks qualify, however there is a nice big discreet seating area in the back of the store consisting of about 8 smaller tables and seating.

Attractive Italian eatery in close proximity to Kew Gardens. Service was friendly and attentive. Although the pasta was well cooked we felt that we could have produced a similar tasting dish at home for a fraction of the price. The orange chocolate cake was luxurious and a decedent was to end a well rounded meal.

Hospitality was excellent, like you are welcomed into their home. Very appreciative, attentive and genuine people. The food was authentic, fresh and delicious. Great atmosphere and food was reasonably priced. Highly recommend!

I've been looking forward to visiting this restaurant for quite some time, based on previous Google reviews. Honestly, it was a little disappointing when we did manage to get some food here. The staff are extremely friendly, can't complain about the service at all. The atmosphere was good but could be better. The real disappointment was the food. It wasn't at the level I was expecting. Though the starters were good, the mains were mediocre. I've had better food at many other Italian restaurants. Please don't take this as negative criticism, that's not my intention. I would suggest looking into hiring another chef to elevate the taste. Or drop the prices. You can't have both mediocre food and absurd prices.

Q Verde is an old favourite with our kids who live locally. This was my 3rd or 4th visit and we went with our grown up children, (group of 6) for a family dinner. Whilst the service is always exquisite and entertaining from the lovely owner who goes out of his way to be accommodating & generous, a couple of us felt the food quality had slipped. I remember 4-5 years ago that the cuisine was exemplary; now it is just ok. Which made our bill of £350 seem rather in the expensive side. We had starters, mains & some desserts….maybe it’s just that London prices have increased substantially since the Pandemic. My fish portion was tiny and the thick orange sauce tasted somewhat like a packet mix (as did all the pasta sauces to my mind). Q Verde is still enduringly popular and always advisable to book; the kids all loved it…perhaps the chef was just having a bad night. We hope for a better experience next time.

What a superb evening. The atmosphere and food took me back in time to my mother’s house in southern Italy. An absolute treat and perfect romantic night out. I had a new steak special and my husband had saltimbocca. Absolutely divine. We will be coming back. Delighted with our first date night out for a while.
