About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
  • Great for craft beers
The Anglesea Arms is found on Selwood Terrace in South Kensington, where Charles Dickens once resided at no. 11. The site was originally a market garden and nursery dating back to 1712. The beautiful traditional pub is a Grade 2 listed building, steeped in heritage from the local South Kensington area.

The site today is a vibrant and iconic London venue, popular with locals and tourists alike, sporting a routinely bustling bar area, a beautiful garden terrace, along with a quiet & cosy dining room.

We are very happy for people to bring in dogs to the pub, but in our restaurant we run on a strict no dog policy.

    Disaster. We waited ages for food then they delivered starters and mains at the same time. The food was very poor. Very sad to see this from what used to be an excellent pub.
    Anglesea ArmsResponded 5 days ago
    Hello GJ, We’re genuinely sorry for your experience. This is not the standard we want to deliver, and we completely understand your disappointment, especially knowing you’ve enjoyed visiting us in the past. We had a new team member who unfortunately made a mistake with your order, resulting in the starters and mains arriving together. We take this seriously and will make sure the necessary steps are taken to prevent it happening again. We’re also sorry the food didn’t meet your expectations. Thank you for your honest feedback, and we sincerely hope you’ll give us another chance to put things right. All the best, Liz
