28°-50° Chelsea – recently awarded “Best Brand of the Year”

Put down your shopping bags and partake in a little culinary indulgence at 28°-50° Chelsea, situated in the middle of King’s Road, London.

Prime Location and Atmosphere

The location is perfect for a little retail therapy, being situated on King’s Road. It exudes a relaxed atmosphere combined with excellent service, as in all of their dining establishments. This superb restaurant offers French and modern cuisine from the à la carte menu, overseen by Executive Chef Julien Baris.

28°-50° is an ever-evolving brand, growing exponentially. There are now five venues in London, and I have a feeling they are not done yet! It is the perfect dining experience. I must not forget to mention those skilled sommeliers on hand to advise with wine pairing. The extensive wine list has been hand-picked by these experts. Coupled with the fine and always fresh food—including light bites, an impressive charcuterie and cheese selection, seafood, vegetarian dishes and a great grill section—you are guaranteed the most delightful meal.

Our Dining Experience

We began our 28°-50° dining experience with a cocktail at the bar on gorgeous pink velvet bar stools while we checked out the menu. The dining room is bright and airy, featuring a Victorian aura with the classic 28°-50° signature trademarks of oak and marble tables, dark velvets and a wine crate display.

After a cocktail or two and some time to soak up the vibes, we ordered our starters. I can never resist oysters, so I had half a dozen; they were fresh and flavoursome, and I couldn’t get enough of the clean, fresh flavours. My husband decided on the tiger prawns served with aioli; they were succulent with depth of flavours and quality, ever so slightly spicy. For our main course, we both chose the famous 28°-50° cheeseburger, served with iceberg lettuce, pickles, smoked bacon, garlic mayo and steaming hot crispy fries. The burger was probably one of the tastiest we have ever had, and the presentation was great. We washed these luscious dishes down with a fabulous bottle of bubbles—perfect for a Saturday lunchtime treat. Our clean plates spoke volumes!

We very nearly decided to opt out of dessert until we were tempted into looking at the menu. It was tough to choose, but we shared a lemon posset and coffee crème brûlée. With a coffee to finish, we were well and truly sated. It was a spectacular dining experience.

Why We Love 28°-50°

We love 28°-50°; the team in each venue is without a doubt hand-picked. They are knowledgeable with regard to both the wine and food, and the service is always impeccable.

We watch 28°-50° as a brand with interest and wonder where they will appear next!
