Brasseria Notting Hill is an all day Italian restaurant at 290 Westbourne Grove. It opens for breakfast on weekdays and moves naturally through brunch, aperitivo, long lunches and late dinners. The polished but relaxed dining room feels equally suited to a morning coffee or an evening meal, and dogs are welcomed as part of its neighbourhood approach.
Breakfast includes eggs cooked to order, an Italian take on a full English breakfast, ricotta pancakes and French toast with fruit and caramelised walnuts. Yoghurt with berries and house granola provides a lighter start, supported by pastries, porridge, fresh juice and espresso. Weekend brunch adds eggs Benedict, Florentine and Royale alongside avocado toast and cocktails.
The main menu begins with Italian snacks and starters such as fried artichokes, focaccia, truffle arancini, burrata and crisp squid. Pasta is made with Italian tradition in mind and ranges from tomato and aubergine combinations to carbonara, seafood, porcini mushroom and truffle. Pizza brings crisp bases topped with buffalo mozzarella, vegetables, cured ham or spicy nduja.
Larger plates include chicken or veal Milanese, sirloin steak, calf’s liver, salmon and sea bass. Fresh salads and vegetable sides balance the richer dishes, while Italian desserts and cheese provide a leisurely finish. Spritzes, classic cocktails and a wine list shaped around Italian regions carry the restaurant from aperitivo into dinner without changing its easygoing character.
