The Fox & Pheasant is a little “country” pub tucked away in a small corner of Chelsea. The pub was founded in 1846 and it began its life as the Bedford Arms. Ten years later it changed to the Prince of Wales and in 1965 became The Fox & Pheasant and we have no intention of changing its name again!Not only are we a snug pub in the winter with 3 fire places, a dartboard and dog biscuits for the well behaved companions (dogs)! We are lucky enough to be able to wind back our roof in the conservatory for those long summer lunches to. Alongside our a la carte menu we have a bar snack menu that not only runs all day, everyday but also contains such pub classics. Roasts run all day on a Sunday and we guarantee to make sure you will always have ample spuds, gravy and yorkies!

    We had an exceptional dining experience at Osteria Romana. Originally, we had booked a 5 PM reservation from the U.S. for Valentine’s Day, but due to jet lag, we needed to adjust our plans. The restaurant graciously accommodated us with an 8 PM seating, which we greatly appreciated. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the service was impeccable, and the food was outstanding—authentic, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every detail contributed to a perfect evening. We highly recommend Osteria Romana and look forward to returning on our next visit to London!

    The chairs need to be replaced, it’s so uncomfortable and feels really cheap. The arrival experience is dreadful with an over crowded entrance and unimpressed by the welcome. Food good (except the starter which was an attempt to a pizza?? from the valentines menu)

    This place doesn't disappoints. The food is inventive, well presented and delicious. No pretence. Just good food. Valentine menus tend to be boring but not this one. The choices were good and the fixed price was such good value for 4 course..
