I ordered take out 3pc small fish and chips. Fish was a bit dry but I did take out do anyways staff is great atmosphere lively with a band. That's nice but 3 small pieces of fish and fries for $30 isn't worth it. Add some slaw or bigger pieces of fish. I'm a regular size woman so this should be filling but I was still hungry
Terrific fish & chips. The fish is great. The chips are great. So is the coleslaw and tartar. I want to try more from the menu, but it will be hard to stray from the F&C. It has the reputation of a day care center. It was not full of kids when I was there.
Cute little neighborhood pub. The food was delicious and the waitress with purple hair was attentive/nice/ awesome (hi if you're reading this!). The items were maybe a little more expensive than I would pay for by a few dollars, but I think I'm okay with that since the overall experience was very positive. I would definitely come again!
This is a real English pub, started by an Englishman back in the '80s and then sold to an American, Scott McFadden, about 10 years ago. Scott has maintained the character and flavor except I think the food seems to get better steadily over the years!! It is mostly locals with or without kids into mid-evening. There is a play area with toys. Often there is live music for a few hours starting mid-evening. The toy area becomes a stage for the band and many of us who have been playing together for decades show up to perform. And many of us who have been listening together for decades show up to listen. The musicianship is generally superb.
Really relaxed classic pub atmosphere. Drinks are poured well and the burger are delicious!
Our visit to Kensington Pub was easily summed up in one word, excellent! The owner is outstanding and you can tell he is a great friend to all who join him at the pub! We started with appetizers and drinks, which were both refreshing (cobb salad) and juicy and delicious (chicken tenders & fritters)! The waitresses were wonderful and made us feel like family as they were on top of everything, very helpful, kind and efficient! So saying we had great service overall is an understatement! The thick cut pork chops were recommended and I must say we definitely had the juiciest and most tender ones we could have asked for! Absolutely delicious and will have again, especially with the accompanying buttery mashed potatoes and veggies! Another in our party had the burger and fries, which were a great surprise as well, as they are well-cooked real potato fries! (The garlic fries were a nice treat as an appetizer also!) To finish it off, we ended with the highly recommended sticky toffee pudding. My goodness, I could have eaten that over and over again! Such a delicious flavor and well-paired with a giant scoop of vanilla ice cream and whip! A favorite to all for sure! To summarize, we couldn't have been any happier with the overall hospitality, friendliness and great food! Made for a nice ending to our evening and we will be back for sure! Thanks again!!
Definitely not a pub closing at 9 pm and 8 pm. The fish and chips are very good. The coleslaw tastes like sugar. Beer selection is good. Overall, would be great but their hours make them super duper wack-a-roni.
I must say, we thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Kensington Circus Pub, from the hospitable owner to the great food to the wonderful staff! Myself and my friends were able to visit during a week day evening and it had a nice, relaxed atmosphere, although I hear the music is a great time during the weekends too! I will be sure to come back for that sometime soon as well. The appetizers were delicious, as I'm a big fan of the fritters, and the burger and fries were just the right touch for a good pub food evening! The topping on the cake was having the sticky toffee pudding that I had heard great things about! It definitely did not disappoint and I must recommend to all as well! I'll be back for more, thanks again for the great evening and hospitality!!
