Now closed, but reopened as an Italian craft beer pub The Italian Job

proper old school seventies wine bar. Good selection of wine but also lager on tap. They usually have live music at least once a week.

Popped in here last night based on the recommendations on this site. First impressions were very positive, and there was even a table free at 8pm on a Saturday night. However, disappointment set in when I got to the bar and saw nothing but Lager and Guiness. Asked the barmaid if they had any Bitter/Ale, but that only drew a very blank and confused response, so went to the Roebuck instead. A real shame, as this initially looked like a great find.

I stumbled across this pub accidentally and have frequented many times since. Great atmosphere, bizarre regulars and crazy owner. Staff are charming but I would recommend attending this hidden gem on a night that the Scottish girl is working. Friendly smiling face, and helpful in every way.

Despite the name, more like a pub! well worth a visit as a change from the more manicured drinking places in the area.

Love it. Fun and friendly and a great place for a sing-a-long if that floats your boat
|
Its a quirky place with a loyal clientele. It's totally unpretentious and I hope it stays that way.

Definately One of the better places in Chiswick. Not a chain pub, which makes a change these days and consequently great service,too.

I finally looked in on this place recently having overlooked it for many years. On first impressions it looked charming! Unfortunately the beer, surly staff, uncomfortable seats and bizzare live music wasn't. It didn't make me want to give it another chance.

About a month ago, was on my way to the pub further down the road but a friend and I popped into here for a quick bevy, never having been in here before
Turned out we stayed for the rest of the night, great little place.
Heineken and Amstel on tap was a welcome change to other lagers, I'm not a real ale person so can't comment on those.
The place has a bar abroad feel to it, small but perfectly formed, in keeping men's toilets are a tight squeeze but clean though.
Bar-staff competent.
Everytime I read reviews of places I'm sceptical of posters who rave about a certain place, I'm thinking an internal job, but here, credit where credit is due, here is a place I would happily make a journey for.
No nonsense, no pretense about it.
I really like this place

Small but great little bar just off the main Chiswick High Road. Not a huge range of drinks but the place has some genuine character. They also put live music on regularly at weekends. Tiny little beer garden at the front (2 beer benches) but its an underrated gem.

A cracking little bar/ pub just off of the main Chiswick High Road that's well worth a look in. I've yet to make this a first port of call, so I'm generally langered by the time I get there. It's very cosy inside with little alcoves and Guinness on tap, and has quite a local feel to it with a nice mix of ages. The gents is rather pokey though and you may have to queue for the cubicle if some media git is sniffing around in there. I nearly always have to leave before I'm thrown out as I'm desperate to go home and pass out. Well worth a visit.
