The Kensington Arms
Bristol, United Kingdom
The read// why locals go
The Kensington Arms is a British gastropub on a quiet Redland backstreet, the kind of Bristol local that regulars simply call the Kenny. It sits in a corner building on Stanley Road, well away from the city-centre restaurant strips, and works the way a neighbourhood pub should: a bar that fills with the same faces on a weeknight and a kitchen that treats pub cooking as real cooking rather than an afterthought. Mains land around GBP 20, which keeps it a weekly proposition rather than an occasion. There is a garden at the back for the handful of warm Bristol evenings, and it fills before anything else does.
