Local guide
About Earl's Court
Kensington’s more down-to-earth neighbour, Earl’s Court is a well-rounded base to explore West London – and beyond. Relaxed restaurants, traditional pubs and leafy side streets characterise the neighbourhood. Make sure you visit The Troubadour, an iconic music venue that hosted Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell in its prime. You’re more likely to walk in on a lowkey jazz session these days, performed under a decades-old collection of instruments...

Enjoy a pint at the Stanhope Arms
On Gloucester Road, you will find the Stanhope Arms, a traditionally decorated pub with a great range of ales to choose from. The perfect place for a quick drink after a long day of exploring.
Treat yourself to a cake at Fait Maison
We challenge you to walk past Fait Maison and resist the call of the cupcake or the smell of fresh brewed coffee from 8am most mornings.
Attend a private art exhibition at Gallery 286
This gorgeous gallery is to be found in a Victorian townhouse and can be explored by appointment. Worth getting on the mailing list.

Taste some English Ale at The Blackbird
This Fullers pub right by Earl's Court station ticks all boxes for a good old boozer. Expect pub classics alongside a good selection of ale and continental lager.
Find this tucked-away pub: The King's Head
At the heart of a sleepy, villagey enclave off busy Earl’s Court Road stands this once better avoided pub that following a makeover, now boasts a line-up of well-kept real ales and some decent grub.
Snap a photo at the Earls Court Police Box
A treat for Doctor Who fans, this refurbished police box outside Earls Court Station is a perfect spot for a selfie. Channel your inner Time Lord and capture the moment.
