A very well organised restaurant with fast paced service and attentive behaviours from all staff passing by the table. The food served was fantastic (smaller portion sizes than we expected but after three courses you will feel satisfied), however the service really stood out for me. Not only was I impressed by our main waitress but as soon as I was torn for choice on the wine menu, a waiter passing by saw I was looking for guidance and recommended a lovely red to go with my main dish of bream and clams. It was delicious. Me and my Fiancé had a lovely time celebrating our engagement and will be returning in the future.

Went with friends for my birthday lunch. Had the Evening Standard menu offer. Good selection of very well cooked and presented dishes. Lovely time, would happily recommend.

Served by a polish guy who was just great. Sat in the sun which was even better

A small group of us decided to be hella Posh and go to BlueBird...Alas, no MIC sighting but that did not detract from our wonderful experience. 

The decor is very trendy, with a nod of industrial-chic elements...exposed iron beams on the ceiling, cieling window with  glassy/mirror card-like things hanging (clearly describing modern art is not my forte), lots of natural/sexy light (because if it is dark out its rather shadowy) and comfy couches and long table tops.

The drinks are expensive but worth it. The bartenders live up to their reputation. 

To be fair, my drink was fairly basic... A G&T with no frills, but my pals had a  Cucumber Garden Martini, a Negroni and some sort of brown drink that I can't remember the name of but basically was a White Russian with some sort of additional element.  Of course, I tried their drinks and immediately was jealous of their choices.

My favourite spot in Chelsea.
Bar, restaurant, brunch place... If you like Kensington crowds, good food and design, you cannot go wrong with this iconic place.

Bluebird's outdoor area is perfect for a summer's day lunch. However, be prepared to wait if you don't have reservations as this place gets very busy!

I tried the the "Bluebird burger", and the chicken quesadillas, which were both very good. To top it off, a glass of Pimms complemented both the meal and the sunny day. 

The decor, including the green grass carpet reminded me of the countryside, creating an escape away from London, despite being right on the Kings Road! 

A great restaurant, and will definitely return!

I came here for a birthday drink and really liked it! Lots of groups of people, obviously having just finished work and dressed up. I had the pear fizz which was nice.

It is a nice place to visit with a group but a bit expensive. £24 for two drinks is a bit much but the atmosphere is nice and its good to watch the good looking bar men shaking the cocktails! Think Tom Cruise in Cocktail!

This is an attractive place with a large outdoor seating area with patio heaters and floral/ Halloween displays. It's not cheap for small meals and starters but the main meals were actually reasonably priced and of very good quality. Staff were friendly and attentive. This is a lovely place for both a sunny and a cooler day.

A lovely restaurant on King's Road Chelsea. I visited one Friday lunch time and sat in the upstairs restaurant, which was fairly quiet. The staff were attentive, polite and helpful. I had the butter chicken which came with sweetcorn, peas and mushrooms. It was delicious. The prices are high, but it is in the heart of Chelsea. The creme brulet I had for dessert was also delicious and presented very well. Well worth a visit if you have something to celebrate.

A must try if you’re in Chelsea, on a sunny day. Lovely outdoor space. The tables are surrounded by plants and flowers. Service is quick and professional. The food is delicious. Portions are good but the flavours is what makes these dishes ideal. The popcorn shrimps and the salmon poke bowl were a winner. The focaccia was crispy and warm. It wasn’t busy on a Tuesday morning for lunch but it gets quite busy over the weekend and in the evenings. Booking is highly recommended.

The ambience was really nice, loved what I ordered the roasted chicken breast however the portions were quite small. The staff were really friendly. I liked that a dancing floor opened up towards the end. Also would recommend the Sweet Queen cocktail if you have a sweet tooth.

REVIEW CHANGED FROM 2 TO 4 STARS Our first experience wasn't great, my boyfriend took me there on a date on a Saturday night and we were very disappointed with the atmosphere, because there was a DJ next to the restaurant tables and the music was very loud, so we couldn't speak during the whole dinner. The food was good, but we couldn't enjoy it, specially because for us it was a pricey place and we were expecting something more chilled during the dinner time. After leaving a review, Rachel replied to me to ask for more feedback. She very kindly listened to my experience and to my suggestions about the loud music for the restaurant and even offered me a voucher to go back and make up for that day. For me this is a 10/10 on customer care, so I decided to upgrade the review. I have not been back yet, so I don't know what improvements they will make. However, my recommendation would be to try not to go on a date on a busy day like Saturday night, just in case, or contact them beforehand. It was better atmosphere for drinks and party.

I came here for dinner on a Saturday evening, service was great and the interior is very nice inside. The outside area looked nice too, good place for drinks or for an occasion. Food was ok, quite a pricey menu so would have liked the mains to be slightly bigger. The trout had a couple of slices of potato for £26.50!!

The food was absolutely decadent! There honestly isn’t one thing I can complain about, from start to finish each dish was beautifully prepared. Service was excellent and the decor over the festive period was enchanting. Actually a bit upset I didn’t take many pictures as we entered because all the fairy lights just made everything seem magical.

It gets very busy on a Saturday night. If you want a relatively quieter date night, you could book the restaurant table but you will still need to shout to talk as the bar turns into a mini club later at night😂 Drinks were not bad and the food were good. Chicken breast was not dry and it went very well with the mashed potatoes. The whole dish was flavourful but quite small in portion as a main. Service was very slow

First time at Bluebird Chelsea. Excellent service and delicious fresh food. The environment is relaxing and fun. You can stay at the bar after dinner for some drinks and great music. Recommend! Great for date nights or any celebrations. PS: it can get really busy and this will definitely affect the service.

I was quite te hungry at the time and I needed my computer plugged. Oddly there were not a lot of plugs. Anyway, the soup was pretty good, as well as the chicken pie. No music (2.30pm) not a lot of waiters,
