The Hummingbird Bakery

Best cupcakes on the planet! The famous Red Velvet was born here. Many other cupcake companies have tried to copy them, but they never come close to Hummingbird's.

Fez Mangal

Fez Mangal

A bustling Turkish restaurant close to Ladbroke Grove Underground Station that cooks amazing Turkish BBQ'd meats. Great takeaway or fun with a few friends to eat in, as it's BYOB. If you're feeling hungry, get the special mix. Also the mezze starters are tasty too...actually everything is!

Why not explore the nearby areas of Holland Park, Westbourne Park, Ladbroke Grove, Bayswater, Kensington, Paddington, Maida Vale, Shepherd's Bush, Earls Court and West Kensington

"The crescents and gardens around Ladbroke Grove owe their design to the Hippodrome, a racecourse that was built here in 1837, with the roads following the original course of the track."

Lively and lined with trendy independent shops, bars and restaurants, it's no wonder that Portobello Road is so popular!

David Roberts

In contrast to the Westfield development, Shepherd's Bush has some lovely period properties.

Mark Nockles

From jewellery to dresses, Portobello Market has it all...

What locals say about Notting Hill

  1. Lovely architecture

  2. Breakfast at Bluebells on the top of Portobello Road is a weekend habit I can't seem to kick!

  3. I reckon you can't beat Pizza East for an amazing Sunday brunch, buzzing atmosphere and a bit of celeb spotting. It's definitely the trendiest hangout spot for locals.

  4. Despite having lived in Notting Hill for 18 years, I've just got a dog and discovered the joy of escaping for a little peace and quiet in one of the many hidden parks in and around the area. Some of these are reserved for residents, but Holland Park and Little Wormwood Scrubs are open to all and are particularly beautiful.

It is a cosmopolitan district known as the location for the annual Notting Hill Carnival, the setting for the 1999 film Notting Hill starring Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant, and for being home to the Portobello Road Market. Notting Hill has a contemporary reputation as an affluent and fashionable area; known for attractive terraces of large Victorian townhouses, and high-end shopping and restaurants (particularly around Westbourne Grove and Clarendon Cross). Notting Hill has had an association with artists and "alternative" culture since its development in the 1820s.
