Brilliant pub, first time in here to watch Leinster game, and the crack was just mighty, very welcoming pub, staff fast even though it was busy but still had time for a smile, will be returning without a doubt, dublin lady around the pub (assuming owns it) changing tv's to suit what customers wanted to watch, picking up glasses and cleaning the pub the whole time she was down, and just seemed to have a nice word to say to everyone. So nice to get a nice old Irish pub in London, where the crack is nearly as good if not better than the pubs at home. Keep it going, great stuff

Busy bar when there is a Celtic game on. Outdoor TV is useful for the smokers or when it is too busy inside. Nice pint of guiness and reasonable prices. Staff are friendly. 7

Pleasant enough two bar Fuller's house with a mainly older Irish clientelle inhabiting the bar. Pride was the only ale on though it was a reasonable (and comparitively cheap) pint. Nice shaded smoking area kind of sunk below the main road. Handy for Brentford FC.

The best news ever...Brian and Berni that used to run Captain Morgans are the new owners...It's opened tomorrow under new management and will be a great pub for everyone to drink in...Perfect beer, sport till it's coming outta your ears, live music Fri and Sat nights and great craic...It was a long time coming but well worth the wait...

This was stop number two on our 'Brentford Corners' crawl. Definitely the pick of the bunch. Beer was nice, bar staff were welcoming, local regulars even chatted to me about Liverpool without making fun!
The best thing I can say about this pub is that I would be delighted to go back on a non-match night. The pub was cosy and had a nice outdoor garden, and felt like a good traditional boozer.
They have a big screen or two showing the football if you don't fancy a live match too.
Easily the best of the four corners.

Definitely the one to go to if you're an away fan visiting Griffin park, but a very friendly pub in tis own right anyway.
|
By far the best all around pub in the Griffin Park area of Brentford. There was a good mix of home and away fans with good and friendly banter all around. I had a Deuchars IPA (a pint I find hard work) and it was excellent - this shows how good the pints were kept at this place. The bar staff were excellent and helpful and I would recommend this pub to anyone.

No real ale on today although from pump clips it looks like they normaly have something from Courage Best, Hen, Ruddles etc. They did have bottles of Summer Lightning which was good. Friendly enough, fairly traditional boozer, low ceilings, beer garden.

I always go into the New Inn when I’m at Griffin Park as you are given fast friendly service and the away fans are allowed in, which I find makes the place more interesting.
There is a pool table and a couple of dart boards at the back of the pub and a nice beer garden for the summer.
The lager is pretty good and it is also home to the West London Celtic Supporters Club, so if there are 2 matches on TV at the same time and Celtic is one of them that will be the game that is shown.
All in all pretty good for a Brentford pub.

one of the best pubs in brentford, much bigger than it looks with rambling, cosy lay-out inside. friendly staff. pooltable.
|
This pub is actually quite good, but i think its for people a bit older than me and my mates. Although everyone was really friendly, I kept on getting chatted up by a 40 year old! Lol, it is good though, to go and have a quiet lil drink, or go in a big crowd and sit in the back garden on a hot summers day, n e wayz its good! l8r on x

good boozer: nicest pint of directors I've had, pool table, juke box, good food, friendly bar staff, big beer garden.
Deffo the best of the 4 arounf the ground.
|
Went in this pub as part of doing all four corners before the match. Definitely my favourite of the quartet, not least because of the excellent and speedy service inside.
Despite the hordes of fans, most people were dealt with very speedily and there was a good atmosphere inside.
Particularly helped by the two friendly barmaids - with the shorter, brunette lady in the red top extremely lovely! If you know who she is, let me know!

Brentford's a bit too 'white' for my liking. I think that is why there are so many pubs like this. Nice enough but let down by a somewhat sinister air.
Good for: definitely not weekends
