Cocotte South Kensington

About Cocotte South Kensington

Cocotte South Kensington sits two minutes from the tube and the museums, making it a natural post-exhibition pit-stop for families who've exhausted themselves at the V&A or Natural History Museum. The rotisserie chicken — marinated 24 hours in herbs and spices, is the star, available by the quarter, half, or whole, and regulars rave about how moist it stays. The weekday Cheeky Lunch (£16, Monday to Friday 1–5pm) pairs quarter chicken with two sides and sauces, while kids gravitate toward the chicken and waffle or truffle fries. Highchairs are available, there's baby changing on the restaurant level, and buggies roll in without fuss. "The staff were so friendly and helpful and great with kids which is always a good sign," notes one parent. Reviewers mention staff like Bernardo and Hasnat for looking after families. Best for a relaxed lunch before the museum crowds hit.
