About Cheneston's Restaurant
Very near Kensington High Street, the award-winning Milestone Hotel's Cheneston’s Restaurant offers a spot of luxury for lunch and dinner.
Reminiscent of a stately home, the room's focal point is the fancy fireplace, in front of which charming staff pass to and fro attending to your every need. Luke Davis’ international menu focuses on modern British dishes such as seared Orkney scallops with creamed baby leeks starter, and main of hay baked cannon and confit shoulder of Shetland lamb. Desserts are divine - try the warm dark chocolate tart with vanilla ice cream washed down with a sweet glass of Muscat de Rivesaltes 1998.

I had afternoon tea with a freind at Cheneston's in London this past weekend and it was absolutely lovely. Perfect atmosphere for a quiet catch-up, delicious food - and not too much (we didn't come away feeling sick as one often does with a full afternoon tea!), but great value for money by comparison to some of the big names out there. This is definitely a place I'll come back to!
The Milestone worked hard on decor and presentation, and its "cream tea in the library" is a perfect period piece to impress guests with. The finger sandwiches are very good, the little cakes very traditional. There does not seem to be great choice of teas and the waiter that took our order did not understand a request for Lapsang and produced a Darjeeling instead. A request to share a cream tea was also ignored /lost in translation, so that a double portion and double bill ensued. Shame.
Cheneston's offers a good service and nice food. WE enjoyed some afternoon tea there and consider coming back one day.
Dinner at Cheneston's on a Friday night. This place has a quintessentially English atmosphere. With candle lit tables, it is intimate, perfect for a quiet romantic dinner. The menu is English with a modern European influence without being contrived. Our main courses were pork and beef. Both were delicious, tender and cooked perfectly. The dessert was different and we both had the fig and toffee pudding which we found a touch on the savoury side rather than sweet. Service was attentive.
I've been to Cheneston's a couple of times for breakfast and lunch. Had very good experiences but my last visit for dinner was a bit of a disappointment. Not only was it extrememely expensive but the portions were tiny. Also the cheese course was very boring in its selection.
