Six Portland Road

Small neighbourhood restaurant with around 80 wines from growers working with a gentle hand, with respect to the grape and the land. Seasonal menu simply prepared, allowing the produce to shine.

Six Portland Road - small neighbourhood restaurant in Holland Park | Six Portland Road

Six Portland Road is a small neighbourhood restaurant, tucked away off Holland Park Avenue.

We have 36 seats and a tiny bar.

There has been a wine bar on this site since the 1960s, in the '70s it was called Tethers and more recently Hollands Wine Bar.

Although the tables are laid up as a restaurant we still have a wine bar license so if you wish to pop in for a glass or two after work you are most welcome.

Old wooden pews, white paper cloths on tables each sporting a sunshine bunch of daffodils, candles in wine bottles, the flames licking towards blackboard lists of aperitifs and wine finds, interesting old prints on porridge-coloured walls glossed with layers of long-forgotten confidences: this is Andrew Edmunds in Soho, established 30 years ago and still going strong.

The evening of that same day, dinner at the newly opened Six Portland Road reinforces the feeling of unaffected pleasure that some restaurants can bring.

A sauce charcutière — basically an espagnole pumped with a tiny dice of cornichons, white wine, mustard and chopped herbs — bathes a grilled pork chop served with Jersey royals and wild garlic and turns the border of fat into a thing of joy.

Terroirs, the first restaurant backed by Les Caves de Pyrene, the importer that believes in “real” wines which express their origin, was always as much about the drinking as the eating.

Les Caves currently supplies the list composed by Oli Barker at Six Portland Road, which kicks off at a reasonable £4/£20.50 for 125ml glass/bottle in both white and red.

While the East expands like knotweed, flattening, renewing and causing even locals to struggle for bearings, West London seems dreamily fixed in time.

Waiting for a Saturday evening cab outside Six Portland Road, a tiny, elegant neighbourhood restaurant opened by Oli Barker of Terroirs, the scene is gloriously sedate.

A modern British menu with warm French and Mediterranean undertones, a stonking wine list, crisp tablecloths, soft lighting and relaxed but studiously whip-smart service.

They even divide the list helpfully into ‘starters’ and ‘main courses’, which some may find painfully user- friendly and irritatingly convenient, but heavens I have done my time frowning at a £9 stew perched mysteriously at the top of a list wondering how big it is and whether a stew is ever suitable for sharing.

We ate an opening course of a perfectly cooked dish of sweetbreads, which would charm even the greatest offal-phobe, alongside a plate of fresh mozzarella with a pretty pile of purple sea beet littered with an assertive citrus dressing.

A solo venture in Holland Park from one half of the Terroirs dream team.

He’s installed an ex-Terroirs chef in the kitchen and opened Six Portland Road, a neighbourhood restaurant where substance beats the shit out of style.

While the menus at Terroirs et al were always quite playful, with plenty for snacking or sharing, the line-up here is traditional – we’re in prime Holland Park after all, where collars are starched and upper lips stiff – as in, starters-mains-puds (plus nibbles, if you must).

These are easy to spoil, but here arrived bouncy and crisp-skinned with creamy, buttery centres, teamed with grilled baby spring onions and a nutty, piquant romesco.

This is a no-frills neighbourhood restaurant for a seasoned, west London crowd.
