Bluebird Chelsea review: This is its best facelift yet | Daily Mail Online

Review analysis
food   value  

It started life, in 1923, as a vast garage for the Bluebird Motor Company, with the capacity for hundreds of cars, along with petrol pumps and a place to tune up all those motors.

Curled tendrils of toddler squid, clad in a diaphanous, crisp, grease-free batter, are tumbled with slices of punchy chilli and a fresh, tomato-based spicy sauce.

Steak tartare is decent, although fresh peppers never, ever have a place in this classic.

A butterhead lettuce salad wears just the right amount of sharp, creamy dressing, while French fries are hot, crisp, golden and glorious.

Fat fry-up, with good sausages, crisp bacon and fried eggs.

Bluebird Chelsea, at 330–350 King's Road, Chelsea, London, is a Grade II-listed building that is now a noted Conran restaurant and retail space, but which had its origins as a noted Art Deco garage complex built for the Bluebird Motor Company, which had connections with Sir Malcolm Campbell.

The garage was built for the Bluebird Motor Company in 1923, designed to the very latest style by the architect Robert Sharp.

On either side of the garage two further buildings contained lounges and writing rooms.

The land speed record breaker Malcolm Campbell was connected with the Bluebird garage, initially holding the franchise for Itala and Ballot cars.

In the late 1990s the main building housed a fashion market In 1997 the building was converted by Sir Terence Conran's Conran Group into the "Bluebird Gastrodrome", including a restaurant, bar, café and private dining rooms.

BACKGROUND Bluebird reopened last September following a £2 million refurbishment.

Housed in the historic Bluebird Motor Company’s first garage, the redesign has drawn out elements of the building’s early 20th century heritage, with brightly coloured textiles, Chesterfield booths and industrial elements retained throughout.

Designed by Sagrada, who have worked on The Arts Club and Italian restaurant Sartoria, the former garage’s forecourt is now home to a stylish open-air bar, which, over the Christmas period, has been decked out with sheepskin covered sofas, frosted branches and silver baubles with twinkling lights.

Calling in Sagrada, the designers of The Arts Club – the restaurant has taken on a striking new interior made up of indoor mature trees, industrial exposed steel red beams, deep booths and bespoke Celia Birtwell textiles.

Epitomizing the exclusive, however relaxed and refined atmosphere of a private member’s club; this west London restaurant has done an impressive job transforming itself into a desirable space for discerning diners and seasoned drinkers.

Flutes of champagne set the tone for the evening with a generous menu that endeavours to tick as many boxes from snacks, oysters, starters, mains and grill dishes.

A wash of flavours, ingredients and sides to cater to a myriad of tastes, this culinary concept is clearly illustrated in the collection of à la carte main course dishes.

Marrying up a new menu and cocktail list, Simon Gregory’s dishes bring The Bluebird back up to speed within the setting of the 1923 Art Deco building – re-establishing the capacious space to ensure it doesn’t fade into the King’s Road and remains a neighbourhood favourite throughout the year.

ambience   food  

Starters are light and colourful – flame-grilled mackerel is soaked in beetroot to give it a deep purple tint, and comes with a sweet beetroot curd, fresh apple, cucumber and radish.

For a taste of Robinson’s Asian travel influence, go for thick-cut yellow fin tuna sashimi in a bath of ponzu and jalapeño dressing, topped with creamy avocado.

Charred baby leeks and garden peas that were so fresh they popped, on a bed of green risotto with tangy crumbled feta and delicate pea shoots showcased the best of seasonal ingredients.

The duck was perfectly pink and soft, and came served on a crunchy bed of barley, glazed carrots and Scotttish girlies, with a light, sweet jus.

Though the room is large, wooden paneling divides white linen-clothed tables and cream leather seats into intimate areas.
