Chez Kristof

About

Jan Woroniecki (the man behind Wodka and Baltic)'s offering to the West London crowd, Chez Kristof has been heaving from day one. The man's a master at creating atmosphere. In a very plain setting that was once Maquis he's created a vivacious buzz based around a two-tonne zinc bar, packed most nights with stylish ladies and gents loving the cocktails, and a louche dining area attended by a swanky staff. A dreamy regional French menu includes braising dishes such as cassoulet, classics like steak tartare, and hearty mains such as roast pigeon with lentils and bacon. The crab with mayonnaise and twice-cooked chips is quite delicious. Everything comes in cast-iron pans, giving an earthy feel to the meal. Spacious outside terrace.

Thank dieu such a popular place has a decent amount of covers – 104 inside, and a further 60 outside on a rather fab terrace. To hire the place for yourself, you need at least 75 guests, or 100 to 300 for a reception. Smaller events can take place in the cool cinema room (complete with projection screen and sound system) which fits up to 50 seated, 75 standing. Birthdays, anniversaries, business lunches, conferences, children's parties – you're welcome to hold most type of events here. Comprehensive menu choice. The extensive cocktail list served at the sleek zinc bar makes a top spot for pre and post event drinks. Patron's table and round tables available on request. Families welcome: highchairs and children's menu provided.
