user reviews of Champions, Ickenham

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

This is the village boozer and music venue and it is now The Old Fox. It is also a football friendly pub with loads of photos; banners; scarves and programmes around the games area. There is a patio area to the side (for smokers) a main bar with games area and a dining room at the back. Sunday roasts were advertised. Beers were the ubiquitous London Pride and Sharp's Doom Bar as well the usual lagers;ciders etc.
I would imagine it is heaving at weekends when there are live bands playing. Look out for the 2 huge (and I mean huge) shaggy dogs - one of wich slavered all over my trousers - yucchh!
Anyway, you pays your money and you takes your choice!

My Band "STOLEN" will be back at The Old Fox on Saturday, 3rd, of April.
If you enjoyed our previous charity gig here last October (and we know loads of you did), come and have some more fun.
Blues/Rock & Rock 'n' Roll covers, great musicianship, not too loud or too soft. Cheers, John.

At least a year ago, this changed to 'The Old Fox'.

As previous comments, the pub has got better and better since changing to The Old Fox. Food was good, staff friendly (especially Karen and Jon who run the show) and good atmos - show the footy and live music here regularly. I have a gig here in January with my duo and am looking forward to it!

Hoorah!

As noted previously, now 'The Old Fox'.
Nice range of shiny motors outside when I walked past it yesterday, so it's probably doing something right.
Seems to have live music - rock genre etc. - and a function room.
Didn't go in - no rating

I moved into the area last year, tried most of the pubs, this is my favourite. Called The Old Fox these days, it�s a clean and tidy place with nice staff and a great pint of Guiness. Dog and child friendly with a nice garden this pub is a traditional style pub with fresh food served on volcanic rocks�. Haven�t tried the food but it gets good reviews from the locals.

Went in there a few years back when it was the Fox & Geese and thought I`d been transported to the roughest pub in the east end, always thought Ickenham was a well to do area, dont know what its like now

Shut when I went there.
used to be the 'Fox and Geese' - and appears to have gone up in the world since then [not difficult, as regulars, occasional users, readers of the gazette's police Column, and the constabulary itself would tell you].

pub is spoilt by a load of oiks in the corner who get drunk and abuse people. No wonder the landlords change every week - there have been about 10 changes in the space of 2 years. Says it all.

have a new landlord/manager every three minutes on average. And i am not lying.

Worth a visit, especially for the younger drinkers - and anyone who likes watching live bands.

This bar is a music and sports venue. Two pool tables, big screen tv for the sport, live music, jukebox, deserves more clientele than it gets.
