Julie's Restaurant |

Julie's Restaurant and Wine Bar, 137 Portland Road, London, W11 4LW
The restaurant where Frankie Little and Christine are having lunch really is called 'Julie's'.
Rather unusually it is referred to by its real name, and real location (Portland Road, Notting Hill) throughout the episode.
The doorway to the left of Julie's (not shown in the episode) was used as the entrance to The Winchester Club in Minder!
