user reviews of the Pheasant, Harlington

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

I had to spend a week staying in the Radisson Edwardian on Bath Row while working in the Heathrow area. Not fancying spending 4 nights sitting in the overpriced hotel bar or eating in the stuffy restaurants I used this website to check out the pubs in the nearby vicinity. Well the Pheasant came up highly rated and just 5 mins walk from the hotel, so I decided that on the Monday evening that’s where I would head for my dinner. Sitting outside the aircraft noise was awful but the Pheasant has a great range of ale on offer, with London Pride at £3 a pint. Lots of TVs to watch Wimbledon highlights and the Euro 2008 matches. Huge menu of food available to order service was good and food quality was better than average and the portions a little on the large side. Pub is pleasant on the inside, bar staff friendly and happy to help, setting up a tab was easy. Couple of nights latter I took some colleagues who were staying in the same hotel they were all impressed and not happy with me that I had not dragged them down to the Pheasant. In summary if you staying in Hotel Row, get out for a walk down to the Pheasant and drink good beer and good pub food in a pleasant environment.

On a recent nostalgia trip visited this pub on a Friday lunch and enjoyed several well kept pints of Fullers' London Pride. Food was decent if a trifle death by chips over load.

Given some of the horror stories these day with the way pubs serve London Pride this pub should be commended for its failure to supply diacetyl.

One niggle would be that the bar area seems set up mainly to serve food to couples rather than for drinkers.

Fantastic food, huge portions and very reasonabley priced! Brilliant staff that are always there to give you helping hand to make a choice from the very extensive food offerings.
Sunday roasts where you feel like you've been eating forever and it just goes on and on!

Pretty good food and beer pub round the back of the hotel row of Heathrow. The corporadas who own the big hotels would like you to believe they have a captive audience; the Pheasant would like you to know otherwise.

I have visited the Pheasant on loads of occasions, just love it there. If you are in the area have a look in. So many faces from accross the world, a real multi cultural pub with everyone getting on.

Have recently returned to the Pub after a couple of years of living out of the area. The place is still brilliant, friendly staff and nice atmosphere. The only difference is that there is a late licence on Fridays and Saturdays, I think till around 2am. Recommend popping in if in the Heathrow area.

The best pub in the area (and surrounding area's) by a country mile! Great beer, awesome food, good bar staff, and a superb atmosphere. Friday and Saturday nights are 'Disco Phez' nights... but it's not your usual 16-20 year old chavs that fill the place. It's a great mixture of ages and a good time is had by all. 10 out of 10 in my books everytime. If you haven't tried the food at the Pheasant yet... DO IT!!!

Been in this pub twice. First time for a roast dinner that was absolutely the b*llocks, it tasted just like a home cooked roast not a normal pubs dinner 10/10 for that, bit expensive but you pay for quality and was so big none of our 8 people could eat the whole of it. Second time a Friday night dinner after work which again couldn't eat it all due to the size but once again it was a very nice dinner then stayed on for the diso pub is open till 2 which is good and there was no hint of trouble even though all of our party live in different areas around the airport!

Great Beer, Great Food, Great Bar Staff need I say more, however the highlight of the weekend is "CLUB PHEZ" it's definitely the place to be on a Friday and Saturday night, listening to the fabulous sounds of none other than DJ Fergie on his burning wheels of steel, While having a few "quite" drinks with close friends enjoying the delectable flavours of Absinthe or maybe be a bit adventurous and try their Mount Gay Rum, with a splash of Coka Cola !

Oh yes, The Pheasant is definitely the place for me, 10 out of 10 everytime !!!!

The Pheasant is a place that's trying to discover itself as a disco, while masked in pub clothing. The early evening is for locals to get together for a pint and a laugh. Perhaps a match on tv. good atmosphere and welcoming!! However, after 9:00pm the DJ fires up and The Pheasant becomes a disco, which appeared to me to drive away all the locals that know a thing or two of pubs and in came the 18 - 25 year olds! (Along with the tuxedo henchmen as the muscle!)

Tpugh to rate, but I gave it a 7 for both sides of the mask!

Loads of teles. OK pub. Caution advised though. There's a barman called Dave who likes country music, and Friday's and Saturday's are a bit of a magnet for badly dressed women the wrong side of 40 terrorising the menfolk. other than that, great! open late, too....

Really really good pub and restaurant. It's famous for it's food. Nice lively crowd on the weekends and a nice chilled out atmosphere during the week. Staff are friendly.

Been for (family) dinners at the restaurant a few times now and always feel they go for quantity rather than quality.. fine if you go want to stuff yourself with fatty meat, potatoes and deep-fried things from frozen, but if not, avoid. Weird interior in the restaurant, can be quite claustrophobic if you end up in the eaves!

Seriously good pub & Restuarant. Have to see and try for your self. Service and place is second to none. If near heathrow have a look in.

This pub is a good example of all things British. It is one of the best that I have been to. They offer excellent food and the atmosphere and ambience is the best

Pleasant pub, bar staff attentive. Ordered a pint of London Pride which was served chilled, so did not have any taste. One of the better pubs in the area, if staying near Heathrow Airport worth seeking out, better than the 3 Magpies on the Bath Road.

Catch it while you can - Once the third runway is built, this pub will be reduced to rubble.

Quite a decent pub actually, with a good menu.
