About the Vibe
Bintang is London's longest-running Filipino and Pan-Asian restaurant, serving up a unique fusion that's hard to find elsewhere in Kentish Town. You'll find generous portions of authentic dishes like Oak Smoked Chicken Inasal and a surprisingly solid brunch menu featuring chicken Tocino burgers and tapa steak with tats. The space is spacious and serene, making it ideal for group gatherings or private events, though it can feel a bit quiet on slower weeknights. The restaurant's location near Camden Town and Kentish Town makes it easily accessible, and they've embraced their role as a community hub with regular events and karaoke nights. While the decor is functional rather than flashy, the focus is clearly on the food and the experience of sharing a meal with friends. It's a place that rewards regulars who know what to order and when to go.

Authentic Filipino flavors in a spacious setting
Bintang stands out in Kentish Town as London's longest-running Filipino restaurant, offering a genuine taste of Pan-Asian cuisine that's often hard to find in the capital. The Oak Smoked Chicken Inasal is a standout dish—smoky, flavorful, and served in generous portions that beg for sharing. Their recent brunch launch has been a welcome addition, with the chicken Tocino burger and tapa steak with tats being particular highlights for weekend mornings.
The restaurant's spacious, serene interior makes it perfect for group gatherings or private events, though the atmosphere can feel a bit subdued on quieter weeknights. Located conveniently near Camden Town and Kentish Town tube stations, it's easily accessible for locals and visitors alike. While the decor is more functional than flashy, the focus remains firmly on the food and the communal dining experience that Filipinos are known for.
Regulars appreciate the consistency and the way the restaurant has become a community hub, hosting events like karaoke nights that add to the lively weekend vibe. It's not the trendiest spot in London, but for authentic Filipino flavors and a welcoming space to gather, Bintang delivers reliably.
