For the main event, indulge in Tortellini en Brodo, a hearty, classic dish hailing from the North of Italy – a country that knows how to eat – or Lamb Shank Confit with Potato Fondant, Red Wine Jus & Spinach. Guests can round off their meal with a selection of mouth-watering desserts, including Chocolate Easter Eggs with creamy Yoghurt & Passion Fruit. The Chucs Easter Menu is available all day, and can be ordered in combination with any

On Saturday 20th April, Chucs Cafe Serpentine will be hosting a family Easter Brunch in collaboration with Sharky & George, the UK’s leading children’s party planners. Mums and dads can kick-back and enjoy foodie delights including eggs any which way, smashed avocado & a whole host of sweet treats, washed down with mimosas or prosecco (or freshly-pressed juice, if that’s more your thing). For the little grown-ups, there’ll be an Easter egg hunt in the gallery gardens between 9:15 & 10am, followed by classic games, arts & crafts, as well as a cookie decorating station for creating personalised festive treats.
Tickets for the Easter Brunch at Chucs Serpentine cost £25 for adults and £25 for children (aged 4 – 14). Children under 3 go free. Adult ticket price includes a two course brunch. Children’s ticket price includes bottomless juices, two course brunch, as well as all Sharky & George entertainment.

The Easter Garden at Chucs Westbourne Grove: For even more Easter fun, Chucs Westbourne Grove, a Notting Hill neighbourhood stalwart, will be transforming its stunning terrace into an Easter garden during the month of April. On Saturday 20th, there will also be a visit from real-life chicks, ducklings & rabbits for the younger diners to pet, as well as a chocolate egg decorating station.
