About this Pub
Why it's great for Matchdays
For matchdays in Chelsea, The Phene suits fans who prefer a calmer base with the option to watch fixtures. DesignMyNight lists The Phene for Euros screenings via private-hire rooms upstairs, so groups can catch live games together. The pub emphasises seasonal British food and Sunday roasts, making it a solid pre- or post-match meal stop. It’s also a short walk from King’s Road and near Sloane Square station (Circle/District lines), which is useful for getting around on matchday.

I stopped by The Phene recently with some family for a drink, and had a very enjoyable visit. The service was very friendly and attentive, and the wine list and drinks offering were excellent. We couldn’t order a bottle of wine without a little cheese, and the cheese board was exceptional. Overall, it was a very pleasant way to spend a few hours on a Saturday, and I’ll certainly return to sample more of their menu in the future!
The Phene was the perfect setting for our wedding lunch after our ceremony at Chelsea Registry Office. The team were fantastic in the lead-up — quick to respond and really helpful with all the planning. On the day, the room looked amazing, the service was spot on, and the food was delicious. A wonderful experience from start to finish — we wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
I went with a small group of friends and a small dog on a very hot afternoon. We had intended to sit in the garden but needed to retreat to a quiet cool corner. The staff were extremely accommodating and very helpful. The food was excellent especially the burnt cheesecake (my favourite). We will definitely be adding The Phone to our list of regular places to visit.
A great way to spend a family evening together enjoying Sunday jazz roast @thephenesw3 , rib of beef (sadly quite burnt after waiting 45mins for it to be cooked ) and roast turkey, plus a lovely bottle of @dogpointvineyard ! 🍽️🍷🎶 ... Nice also briefly meeting and chatting with Larissa and Kasha , both Leith's culinary students who also have a shared love to travel and explore. 💚🤗 Sunday Jazz Roast | Jazz band | Dog Point Vineyard | The Phene | SW3 | London
Fantastic experience! We went to the Phene after our wedding at Chelsea Old Town hall this February. I can't thank the venue and the staff enough. The whole day was fantastic, the food excellent and the staff couldn't have been more attentive. The whole process from start to finish was seamless. I highly recommend it as a venue, and thank you for making our day so special and memorable.
