    My knowledge is based mainly on driving in the area but if you come out of the hotel and turn right you are going into quite upmarket territory - but there are to my memory several cafes of the patiserie variety and a really lovely looking deli!

    If you turn left there is a huge roundabout in front of you. I am sure that there were a couple of places just by that roundabout. If you walk over the roundabout, straight across then you are walking into Shepherds Bush Green where there has to be a greasy spoon of some sort - it's a very busy area full of shops. There's a Morrisons on that left hand side as well, I think.

    Hopefully someone else knows the area a bit better than me, but you won't be stuck.

    Ah just realise your looking for a local cafe for breakfast or somethink?, really just got to walk around for a bit!, as long as it aint in the same circle for 2 hours!
  • If you are staying in Hilton Kensington Holland Park Avenue - I was there in November and used the Holland Park underground station to get to the hotel and along this road near the tube exit there were lots of cafes, I didn't eat in them but they were busy which is a good sign.
  • Thanks every1 for your help:beer::j:j:j
    I think were probably going to use holland park tube........im going to be really cheeky & ask for directions from hotel to it?........

  • Come out of hotel turn right and keep walking (about 10 mins) you can look on Google maps to see just how close the tube station is.

    There is a bus stop right outside the hotel if you don't fancy the walk.
