There’s just something special about Sundays at The Scarsdale. ☀️
The sun out, the terrace full, beautiful roasts coming out the kitchen and classic cars parked outside like this. Proper Kensington Sundays.
A Bloody Mary turns into a bottle of red, one roast turns into dessert and before you know it the whole afternoon is gone.
Honestly one of the best spots in London to spend a Sunday.

We are delighted to invite you to ‘It All Started At The Scarsdale’ on Monday, 18th of May.18.05.26
Art Viewing: 12 - 4 PM
Talks: 2 PM
Max Denison-Pender and Boyd Bishonga come together for afternoon centred around conversation and storytelling.
For Max, ‘The Scarsdale is the reason my career could take off and all those years later I’m honoured to be championing Boyd in the same opportunities I had’.
At seventeen, Max found himself painting at pubs which inevitably lead him to the Scarsdale, where he painted from life, became part of its community, and held his first solo exhibition, The Heart of London, which sold out.
Over the past decade, Max’s practice has taken him far beyond the Scarsdale. His work has ranged from painting live volcanoes to portraying NHS nurses during the pandemic, working on the Front Lines of Ukraine, and living among recently contacted tribes in the Amazon rainforest, where he created a series of collaborative portraits.
At the heart of ‘ It All Started at the Scarsdale’ will be a series of talks, in which Max and Boyd reflect on how they met, the ideas that underpin their work, and the experiences that have shaped their artistic journeys. These conversations will unfold within a show of new works created specifically for the space, alongside key pieces drawn from across their careers.
We hope you can join us for an inspiring and intimate afternoon of art and conversation.

Before Kensington became what it is today, there were places that quietly shaped it…
The Scarsdale Tavern is one of them.
Dating back to the mid-19th century, the Scarsdale has stood on this corner through generations — from Victorian London to post-war 1950s Britain, when this photo was taken. Back then, pubs like this were the heartbeat of the neighbourhood: no reservations, no rush — just locals gathering daily, pints of Watney’s and stout in hand, sharing news, stories, and life itself.
Those wooden benches, the tiled floors, the etched glass windows… they weren’t design choices — they were part of everyday life. A proper public house in every sense of the word.
Over the decades, the Scarsdale has evolved with its guests — from simple ale houses to the refined, character-filled space it is today — but without ever losing what matters:
that sense of belonging, of history, of walking into somewhere that has always been here.
From post-war pints to fine wine evenings…
same spirit, just a new chapter.
