Since then, it has also changed its name to the Notting Hill & Ladbroke Grove Station in 1880, to Ladbroke Grove (North Kensington) Station in 1919, and to the present name in 1938.

The Ladbroke Grove Tube Station serves the nearby Portobello Road Market. The traders there are campaigning to have the station renamed the Portobello Road Tube Station, for better recognition of their proximity.
