Westbourne Grove

...West London

---

Once the seedy-side of Bayswater, Westbourne Grove is now a very up-market area full of chic and trendy restaurants, bars and shops.

Take a stroll from the bottom of Queensway to this new little area and you could easily think you're in Kensington or Knightsbridge.

The change is dramatic! The area still has it's local pubs and but is also full of up-market shops, boutiques and cafes.

The road stretches from Kensington Park Road to Queensway and cuts across Portobello Road so vert close to Portobello Road Market and just a ten minute walk from Notting Hill.

There are many antique shops, cafes and shops along this stretch.

Rodizio Rico's Brazilian churrascaria is a meat-eaters paradise. Chilled out atmosphere and friendly people.

If you like Greek food then don't miss Aphrodite's which is just off the Grove in Hereford Road.

---

Traditional Greek dishes and lots of delicious deserts, fruits, coffee and lovely Greek music. There's also a Greek coffee shop next door.

TIP! - A great way to spend a Saturday afternoon is to start at Portobello Road and work your way down the Grove to Whiteleys in Queensway.

If you still have some energy, go to the top of Queensway, cross over the Bayswater Road and you're in Kensington Gardens.

Weather permitting, enjoy a drink at the cafe outside the Diana Memorial Playground or have tea and cakes at the Orangery.

If you have time, visit Kensington Palace and then 5 minutes away is Kensington High Street where you can enjoy some shopping.
