The Ladbroke Arms, Notting Hill

A customer of 25 years, I continue to visit periodically and my last (mixed) review was made about three years ago. I've had staggeringly good meals as recently as December 2008 and, in the last two weeks, a couple of mediocre meals. I've shrugged off the changes in clientele and the re-figured layout that makes it difficult to move about, but if the food continues to take a dive I will regrettably write this place off. I think someone is cutting back on either kitchen talent or ingredients, probably blaming the economy. Sorry to have to write this.

We've had several good meals here, although some folks who've gone with us have commented on high prices and pretentiousness. A small-village-pub transformed into a Destination pub. They used to run early bird specials which were good value.

I'm afraid I have to agree with others about the changes this place has seen over the 20 years I've been visiting. Used to be full of interesting-looking people who apparently didn't have jobs to go to and now.......suits, suits, cellphones & foreign languages. So sorry.
