About this meeting
Portobello Lunchtime brings people together every Tuesday at half past twelve, in the room above the Farm Girl Café on Portobello Road near Notting Hill Gate. It is an open AA meeting, so colleagues, friends and family are just as welcome as anyone with a desire to stop drinking. Chits are given if required, useful for members who need to show proof of attendance for court, probation or a treatment service. Running for about an hour, it offers a midday option for people working nearby or passing through west London. The room is up a flight of stairs and wheelchair access has not been confirmed. Portobello Road's market and cafés make the surrounding streets busy and easy to find during the day.
