January, But Make It Sparkle

Who says January must be restrained? This month, The Kensington invites you to embrace life’s little luxuries with a sparkling Champagne offer at our neighbourhood restaurant Town House and The Drawing Room.

Tables of four or more enjoying the à la carte menu or the decadent Let Us Eat Cake Afternoon Tea will receive a complimentary bottle of Charles Heidsieck Champagne when spending £200 or more. Extend the celebration to a table of eight, with a £400 minimum spend, and a Magnum of Charles Heidsieck awaits.

Because January is still a time for elegance, indulgence - and raising a glass to the year ahead.
