| Like many here I imagine, I'm not a fan of gastro-pubs where drinkers are effectively unwelcome because of an over-emphasis on food. You know...the sort of places where every table is set for diners; and one feels almost embarrassed for just drinking. However: this is not the Atlas, which achieves a really rather happy balance. If you want to eat (and it is good, hearty fare): fine. If you want to drink: that's fine too. No pressure or compulsion ether way. Beers on at last were 'stock' ales like Pride and Deuchars IPA - both well kept - and Twickenham's Naked Ladies. Good non-intrusive sountrack from the Blue Note archives; and the garden - more a yard - is pleasant enough. A stand-out operation in the wasteland of the Earls Court exhibition centre environs. grovetown - 6 Mar 2009 09:43 |
| They had Pride, Deuchars IPA and Harvey’s Best on – the Harveys was on good form and at £3.10 a pint the going rate for the area I suppose. This pub still retains a number of its original features, most notably, in my opinion, the wood panelling in the back bar. This was clearly originally a two-room pub with the public bar at the front and the saloon bar at the back, although some of the panelling that separated the two bars is still in place. But it is no longer the backstreet boozer that I remember from the mid 80s, although the furniture seems not to have changed much. As others have pointed out, the emphasis now is on the food, but I had no trouble getting a seat to just have a pint at 2.10 on Saturday afternoon. It still had the feel of a pub to me, albeit an “upmarket” one – gastro food-centric, bare-boarded etc. Worth dropping in for a pint if you’re in the area. RexRattus - 22 Feb 2009 21:26 |
| Quite simply unbeatable. This gem of a pub is by far and away the best gastro pub west London can offer. The beer is well kept, service is consistent and the food is perfectly in turn with the environment. The cassoulet being the prized piece within a menu that caters to all. The Atlas could serve as a winter warmer, comforting boozer or can alternatively provide you with a bright and sunny early evening date in the summer. An absolute must for those who appreciate the rustic touch... keep it up lads! pwwl - 22 Dec 2008 08:16 |
| Twickenham Ales Summer Gold, Pride, Deuchars. Attractive large wood panelled room, open but roughly divided halfway down the left-hd bar (black&white tiling, foot rail), smaller area to the front, larger to rear. Wood floored throughout with distressed wood furniture & some leather-seated wood-backed banquettes. At the very rear is the kitchen with an open ‘hatch’ to the pub above a stone fireplace (dunno if it is ever used but it’d need an odd-shaped floo, see White Cross Richmond), other aesthetically pleasing, albeit gas-fed, fireplaces at each end. Rather bemused by comments on the beer-garden, just looked like a narrow paved area with a few tables, the ‘garden’ door was fixed open, as was the entrance door at the front, and this caused an uncomfortable draught which was intrusive, especially as I was (for a change) eating. Despite the wind-tunnel effect the food was very good indeed, menus on blackboard but also printed daily, gastro prices, £6-8 starters, £10-14 mains, squid with chorizo, rabbit & wild mushroom… There is a plasma tucked away in a rear corner, although it didn’t strike me as the sort of place to screen footy. Friendly barstaff and, whilst it undoubtedly leans toward the food market, you would feel perfectly comfortable just going in to drink. trainman - 19 Sep 2008 12:30 |
| Not the cheapest pint in the world, but not bad for a London gastro pub so close to Earls Court exhibition centre. Menu looked good and made me wish I hadn't already eaten beerywilf - 7 Sep 2008 21:16 |
