Pre-Christmas Dates to Take A Kensington Escort To

It’s the time of year when those who are well prepared are already making their plans for Christmas days or nights out, and many restaurants and popular attractions - pop-up or permanent - have opened their bookings.

So if you’re also making plans, but are looking to include booking an escort in Kensington among them, here is a small guide to some of the choicest attractions which will be coming to the area in and around W8 in time for the festive season.

Get wrapped up in Christmas at the Churchill Arms: This pub on the border of Kensington and Notting Hill styles itself ‘London’s most Christmassy pub’ and is renowned for going all-out for the festive season, with its twinkling lights and dozens of Christmas trees.

Even when it isn’t preparing for a festive blowout, this pub is highly regarded for its Thai food menu, leaving one recent reviewer so impressed that they commented: “having lived in Thailand for a decade I cannot recommend the food enough. Not only is the food authentic but also delicious”.

Whatever time of day you and your escort in Kensington visit, you’re also sure to find plenty of conversation-starters among the massive memorabilia displays focused mainly on , which make the pub a real treasure trove. A good range of the local Fuller’s ales is also available.

• 119 Kensington Church Street, London, W8 7LN. Food served until 9.30pm daily.

Say ‘oui, oui’ to Cote Kensington: Several of the dishes on this well-established French-style bistro/restaurant’s menu take the fancy of regular visitors, in particular its French onion soup, and for dessert the creme caramel gets high marks.

Quieter in the early and mid-afternoon, it’s a little spot of France in west London, so your escort in W8 is sure to appreciate the fine quality food, which reviewers say represents surprisingly good value.

Booking is recommended, but you can strike it lucky and find a walk-in table if you and your Kensington escort are starting early and heading on elsewhere afterwards.

• 47 Kensington Court, London, W8 5DA. Open until 10pm Sun-Thur, 11pm Fri and Sat.

Catch a festive carol concert at the Royal Albert Hall, or take one of its free daily tours: One of the most recognisable Victorian buildings in England, let alone London, this spectacular concert hall will again be staging its annual series of festive-themed concerts on various dates in December, with scheduled performers including Rick Astley, Jamie Cullum, and Jools Holland and His Rhythm and Blues Orchestra.

If you don’t fancy any of these, or can’t get tickets, there are daily one-hour tours of the auditorium, where you can bring your escort in Kensington and together get a taste of the history of this world-famous venue. Tours are held daily, and you can book at the box office, which opens 9am-9pm every day (entry via Door 12 except when there is no show in the auditorium and the box office closes at 5pm).

• Royal Albert Hall, Kensington Gore, London SW7 2AP.

See how to celebrate a right ‘Royal’ Christmas at Kensington Palace: Seasonal displays and historic festive decorations illustrating 190 years of how the Royal Family has marked Christmas down the years go on display here from 8 November.

The exhibition charts the future Queen Victoria and her family’s Christmas in the countryside at Claremont House, Surrey. Decorations and displays are designed to capture the magical atmosphere of the young Princess’s outdoor surroundings.

• Kensington Palace, Kensington Gardens, London, W8 4PX. Open 10am-6pm Wednesdays-Sundays, closed Mondays and Tuesdays.

See Hyde Park turned into a Winter Wonderland: From 19 November to 3 January, the park is being taken over by more than 150 rides, attractions and shows, including Christmas by Candlelight Concerts being staged on certain dates.

A small number of off-peak entry tickets are being offered for just £1 each, allowing admission to any session on a Monday to Thursday in November, so they could be a great chance for you and your escort in Kensington to beat the crowds and see all the attractions before the queues start to really build.

• Tickets are available online at Hydeparkwinterwonderland.com. Hyde Park, London, W8. The nearest entrance from High Street Kensington underground station is closest to the Bavarian village and Christmas markets.

Boldly go forward in time at the Space Gallery in the Science Museum: If you and your Kensington date enjoy your sci-fi, then this is a great, weather-proof idea for you to explore together.

The exhibition, in the Museum’s West Hall, marks the first time two human-flown spacecraft have appeared alongside each other - one from the American Apollo missions, and the other a Russian Soyuz spacecraft.

And 35 years on from her history-making adventure, the exhibits also include the spacesuit worn by Helen Sharman, the first Briton to go into space.

• Admission free, the exhibition is on Level 0 of the Science Museum, Exhibition Road, South Kensington, London, SW7 2DD. Open 10am-6pm daily.

Add a little Indian spice to your festive preparations: The perennially popular Dishoom restaurant in Kensington will be undergoing an ‘art deco, Bombay jazz-inspired’ makeover in time for Christmas.

This chain of Indian restaurants is known for pulling out the stops for the festive season, so this will be a pre-Christmas Kensington escort date night on a grand scale if you can plan far enough in advance.

Open from 11am daily, and serving dinner from 5pm, bookings are highly recommended, as the tables can fill quickly as the festive season approaches.

• Dishoom, 4 Derry Street, Kensington, London, W8 5SE.
