  “Found this through a quick search of farm to table and local food. The Shed did not disappoint and was amazing. Great staff, drinks and food. I was there on rowdy night and the pork was incredible. The scallop is a must try starter. My house, Bianca, was personable and warm with great recommendations. The entire staff was fun and great atmosphere.”

  “Food was lovely, service was impeccable. I had the venison which was cooked to perfection and the salt baked potato! So crispy! Our server, Bianca, was very attentive. Even to the point of getting a cocktail remade as the original didn't quite hit the right flavour. Only issue for me was a very loud woman sat on the opposite table who it seemed wanted the entire restaurant to hear her conversation. I highly recommend this restaurant.”

  “Excellent lunch at the Shed. Exceeded our expectations. We were a group of 5. The fish platter for starters with a bottle of English wine, the mains such as pork chops, duck and tuna were superb. The 2 waiters were knowledgeable and very friendly. This place is a real gem.”

  “I came here to celebrate my friend’s birthday. Before our visit, I called the restaurant to ask about a particular dish, but unfortunately, they didn’t have it available. They recommended an alternative, so we decided to go with the seafood mix, which was fresh and quite good. We also ordered a bottle of champagne, sparkling water, and burrata with chips as a starter. Overall, the food was fresh and enjoyable, and we had a nice evening. However, when the bill came to £225, I was honestly surprised by the price. For what we ordered and the overall experience, I felt it was far too expensive. I’m happy to pay for quality, and I understand that sometimes you are also paying for the location, atmosphere, and style of a restaurant. But in this case, I don’t think the setting, service, or overall experience justified such a high price. The food was good, but unfortunately, the value for money was not. For £225, I would expect a much more exceptional experience. It’s a nice place, but personally, I wouldn’t return at that price.”

  “Went there for their summer lunch special. The prices are decent even not on the special, especially consider it is right next to the Notting Hill gate station. The food was great, tasty and nicely plated. The service was even better. The staff was really friendly and observant. They explained the concept of farm to fork and the dishes very well. Highly recommended.”

  “We booked a table at this restaurant more than two weeks in advance. It was supposed to be a special day — my daughter and I had not seen each other for several months, and we wanted to have a nice lunch together in a pleasant place. I arrived at 2:30 pm, exactly as booked. My daughter was running a little late, so I ordered water and wine and told the waitress we would order food together once she arrived. The waitress was very polite and friendly, helped me choose the wine, and explained the restaurant concept. The interior was cozy and the first impression was very good. But exactly at 3:00 pm I was suddenly told that the kitchen was closing. Honestly, I was shocked. Nobody mentioned this when we made the reservation, and nobody warned me when I arrived and sat down. I had to quickly order something before the kitchen closed. A few minutes later my daughter arrived and ordered a dish which turned out to be more like a small starter than a main course. The food came quickly, but it became obvious that we would still be hungry — the portions here are quite small. We wanted to order another main course each, but by then the kitchen was already closed. In the end, we paid around £170 and left still hungry. What surprised me even more was that £20 service charge was automatically added to the bill. Considering that nobody informed us about the limited kitchen hours, I honestly would not have left a tip voluntarily. It is a pity because the place itself is beautiful and the staff is polite, but the lack of basic communication completely ruined the experience. I am writing this review so future customers are aware of the kitchen closing time before booking.”

  “I was drawn to this restaurant because I love farm-to-table dining, so I was genuinely looking forward to visiting. Unfortunately, the experience did not quite meet my expectations. The restaurant was very lively and noisy, so I would not recommend it for a quiet dinner or a proper catch-up. We were seated next to the bar, and the table had visible stains when we arrived. Service was also slow at points. Our server was friendly, but the style of service felt too familiar for my comfort. He sat very close to me while taking our order, with some physical contact despite there being enough space, which made me uncomfortable. Later, when my friend was paying, he suddenly shouted “bang” playfully, which felt strange and out of place. As someone interested in farm-to-table food, I expected clearer knowledge of the sourcing. The sustainability angle was explained, but the farm/supplier details did not feel very clear. He also encouraged us to order more food even though we said we were not big eaters, which felt slightly at odds with the sustainability message. Some dishes were enjoyable, especially the goat’s cheese tart and duck breast. However, the mushroom risotto was disappointing: little mushroom flavour, more green pea flavour, slightly too salty, and undercooked rather than pleasantly al dente. When I shared this after being asked, the response felt defensive, though he kindly offered to remove it from the bill. Overall, this may suit people looking for a loud, casual night out, but for diners hoping for a thoughtful farm-to-table experience with refined service and clear ingredient provenance, I would suggest setting expectations accordingly.”

  “Excellent little find, tucked away by Notting Hill Gate. The atmosphere and overall venue is cosy and cute, especially around Christmas time and the staff are super friendly and welcoming. Big shout out to Kia who spent time engaging with us and other tables throughout the evening! Food was delicious - especially the scallops!”
