Last minute Sunday booking. Arrived at a very busy and full pub, nice large bar area and small separate dining room. Waited 15 mins for a table in the bar to be vacated and cleaned. Ordered the 3 meats Sunday roast and it was well worth the wait. The food was absolutely fabulous and the service from Jack first class even though he was run ragged; apparently 2 staff down! Definitely will return again when in the area.
Had lunch here on Monday after passing by and really glad we did. The lady on front of house was so lovely and very thoughtful, down to tiny details. The food was really lovely and fresh with great flavours and ended up having three courses as was so delicious. Would definitely come back knowing we will be well looked after. We went with our baby and they had high chairs, great kids menu as well.

The Prince Bonaparte sits proudly on the corner of Chepstow and Talbot Road on the edge of Notting Hill. The nearest Tube is Westbourne Park which is an eight minute walk away.

This pub was built 1850 and was originally called The Artesian. The name stems from “Artesian Place” which was renamed to Chepstow Road, date not known.

This is a good size bright and airy pub with an Art Deco feel. At the core of this elegant boozer is a horseshoe shaped servery which has an open kitchen on the right hand side. The bar area is laid out in a “J” shape. At the front are some poser tables, a sprawling banquette sofa and a ledge looking out through huge picture windows to the coming and going’s outside. On the right hand side are some comfy booths with pictures above of Prince Napoleon Bonaparte. At the rear is a dining area which has a chic and formal feel to it.

The beer line up was good and was craft centric, there was one cask ale on for the cultured drinker. I decided on a pint of Amstel, my pint was great and pleasingly under six quid. There is a modern seasonal food menu available here. The two Chefs in the kitchen were grafting away turning out plate after plate to the delight of the dining clientele, the food here did smell amazing. There are traditional pub grub options to choose from, Fish & Chips costs £17.50 and on a Sunday you can get a Chicken Roast for £19.

I arrived mid afternoon and the atmosphere was upbeat with a lively Jazz soundtrack in the background. The crowd was a mix of local well to-do’s plus tourists visiting the area. I was served by a very welcoming member of staff who was friendly and courteous.

The @bonapartew2 is a stylish pub which is far enough away from Portobello Road to enjoy a tranquil pint or bite to eat. This is an upmarket boozer which doesn't charge upmarket prices, for me this made the pub even more attractive. I really enjoyed my visit here, this is a great place to chill with friends or have a reflectful pint on your todd.
