Another knocked through bar/pub/eatery decorated in a modern style with a small courtyard garden but with a "gallery" featuring what I'd call soft core porn as well as photos of rock stars like Hendrix. Some tables at rear with "arty" magazines arranged as a display - a tad pretentious for me. A couple of real ales on - I had a satisfactory half of Deuchars. There are tables out front so that in decent weather you could have a drink here without having to get distracted or offended by the "art".

This used to be a pub of choice. Not any more.
It's almost become a victim of it's own success. It's busy but with people who are so rude it's unbelievable. I'm public school, my parents gave me a good education, but I don't behave like they do. Maybe i'm getting too old but this is only worth going to if you're under 25, braying, pre-crazy larry's attending half wit.
Shame really, because it used to be the best pub in the area.

Famous Chelsea Bovver Boy Boozer from the 70s now a grown-up pre match watering hole. 2/3 real ales usually including the wonderfull Deuchers IPA. Interesting decor and great staff. My Chels fave!

Recently done up.
Another gastro-pub in Fulham full of Sloaneys, and I absolutely love it! Food and drink excellent and the staff who also own the Crown just down the road in Chelsea are great.

Went here on a saturday sept. 05 - and was very disappointed. The satanic handpump was not even active! Only one beer on - and the Hogs Back T.E.A. was not good. Noisy place - but good music.

Strengths: leafy location, young attractive clientele
Weaknesses: Drinks are mediocre, Sloaney territory
Opportunities: Cop off with a toff and pocket the heirlooms
Threats: Old boys XV are on a Leo Sayer

Good pub - like the other people here say its the place for a friday / saturday boozefest but the food is also good too - most of it is tasty and good value and doesn't look like it has come straight out the microwave!

Have been going here a while now and had some very good nights - the sort where you go in for a few quick ones and end up staying till closing and dancing on the tables... the managers are very friendly and great at sorting out a party.

The real ales in this pub are rather good, a little like those produced by Zero Degrees in Blackheath. Visited earlier this year and was impressed with the friendly staff, the convivial atmosphere and, of course, the beer.

Lively bar with a very good friendly atmosphere. Busy at weekends with young out partying. More sober in the week with a suprisingly good menu.
