Description

This unique venue with iconic views of Batttersea Power Station has recently changed ownership, and now provides a stylish, cosy and comfortable interior. Being a freehouse, there is a well thought out selection of draught beers, cider and ale on tap, great wine list and freshly cooked, Modern British pub menu from an award winning chef.
The beautiful upstairs dining room boasts a fabulous roof terrace with unrivaled views and doubles as the perfect venue for private parties. The pub quiz on Tuesdays have been described as "...the best pub quiz in London," Time Out (oct 07), and the acoustic Open Mic night on a Thursday is a great way to enjoy some of London's best live music. Guest DJs on Friday nights and our enthusiastic staff mixing cocktails get the weekend off to a funky start.
Sundays at The Duchess combine a traditional Sunday Roast with mellow jazz from The Glen Macnamara Jazz Band, playing classic Sinatra, Dean Martin and soulful swing. A must!

This is one of the best pubs I have been to in a long time. Great staff, great beer, great food and great punters..... What more could you wish for? You have to try the Pub-Quiz on Tuesdays! it's the best thing since....Well since the Pub Quiz Began. A must if you're in the area.

This has to be one of the most successful refurbs I've ever seen. From a dull and grubby pub for old boys to go to avoid their wives, to an interesting and stylish pub and venue with great music at the open mic I went to on thursday. Comfy sofas, friendly staff, and a good choice of beer. If this is what a castrated boozer looks like then may many more get the chop!

Very cool new venue for music and chilling out, big garden and the best view of Battersea Power Station from upstairs terrace. Don't do food, but apparently it's coming, Abbot on draft, amazing change around for this now friendly local. 9/10.

Expensive.
This pub has had it's b*llocks chopped off.
It has changed it's name & image. It is now called the Duchess & has been smartened up into a gatropub GROAN. Ghastly. It used to be a very nice blokey boozer. Lots of girly touches like flowers & ridiculous ornaments - new paint & expensive pints.
