Northwest London's Restaurant Scene Is Heating Up

Chef Jesse Dunford Wood appears to be singlehandedly turning Northwest London into his own personal restaurant fiefdom.

After opening Parlour in Kensal Green, and Six Portland Road in Notting Hill, he’s now headed back to Kensal Green to cut the ribbon on Harvest this May.

The idea is for it to run roughly the same path as his other two restaurants – a local spot that caters to all who may deign to walk through its doors, whatever time of day it may be. He’s tapping up the network of suppliers that he’s built up relationships over the years in order to bring you farm-to-table meat, boat-to-table fish, and soil-to-table vegetables.

The space that he’s secured is a fairly sizeable former curry house on the main stretch of Chamberlayne Road, with a couple of dining rooms, a small bar, and a heated & covered ‘secret garden’ (which is ‘secret’ in the sense that it’s not visible from the street) that essentially doubles the capacity of the restaurant by adding another 30 seats.

It’ll be an all-day affair, and you’ll find strong non-alcoholic drinks list, meaning that it’ll aim to suit any diner for any occasion.

Even dinner.

NOTE: Harvest is set to open on May 4th. We’ll be back then with the full scoop. In the meantime, you can keep an eye on their Insta page right here.
