We started off trying to find a place in Notting Hill to eat dinner but took a wrong turn and ended up at The Castle. We were hungry and decided to settle on it for dinner. Wow - this place ended up being exactly what we were looking for! Delicious, local, cozy, and trendy.
The atmosphere is great with it's big oak bar and large couches for hanging out or grabbing a bite. There is also a dining spot around the back of the bar for larger groups. We came for a later dinner, around 8-9pm but it looked like the happy hour crowd was still hanging out and enjoying their time. Younger crowd mid 20s-30s. A casual laid back upscale vibe.
The bartender was awesome! He took our order at the bar and took a moment to break away and check on us during our meals. Great guy! The food was fantastic, highly recommend their pies. Nice appetizers too, we ended up getting a meat/cheese board and it was delicious. Great beer selection.
I wouldn't hesitate to come here again! -

The Castle was located on our daily route from our place to the train, so I often would walk by and see crowds of people enjoying happy hour cocktails spilling out onto the street. Looked like a fun place so I bookmarked this for later.
After noticing it was somewhat hard to be seated in a group at restaurants, we made a reservation for a Sunday Roast dinner. I noticed we were running late, so I called the restaurant and they held our table.
After a long day of touristy stuff, we were hungry. My family ordered their favorite comfort foods including a watermelon salad, the chicken roast, the beef roast, steak and fish & chips. The kids had lemonade and we ordered a little beer and wine.
Dinner was good and service was as well, good spot for a nice Sunday Roast. -

Just spent a week in London and went to this spot three times. It's very convenient to the Holland Park Tube station and a short walk from the Hilton Kensington.
Nice selection of beer and cider and we adored the local pub feel, especially after discovering a lot of pubs around London now share a single owner (with the same drink selections and food menu - so boring!).
The food at The Castle is good, especially the beef reuben and the baked cheese appetizer. Also the toilets don't involve stairs, which was helpful to my arthritic knees. We'll definitely be back when we get to London again. -

This place is a great local pub a block away from the Holland Park underground station and a short walk from the Hilton Kensington. The ambiance is warm and cozy. We ate here twice during our stay in London. The fish pie and fish and chips were delicious. My mom also enjoyed the burger. The beer selection is decent.
The second time we visited we had to wait for a table, but we didn't have to wait long. There is space for more tables but they currently are not maximizing their space.
