The Black Lion, Hammersmith

At last i have found my new haven of tranqulilty. Now i'm a woman who likes to 'lunch' and 'dinner' as well as having a deliciously cold bottle of pino blush on a sunny day, and this pub hits the spot. My friends and I were greeted in such a friendly manner i nearly dropped my M&S bag full of shopping ! - It's so refreshing to find this in London these days. The bar itself looks scrupilously clean and the restaurant area was so welcoming we just had to take a seat in there amongst the flickering church candles. Service was prompt, considering it was quite busy, and when the food arrived none of us were disappointed. I had a vegetarian sweet potato tart - evidently home made- whilst my girlfriends had a hefty portion of fish and chips and a large bowl of mussels. The chips that came with the fish looked so good I had to pinch a few from my friends plate. I am usually very hard to impress so well done to the guys here. I have recommended this cute bar and restaurant to many of my friends now and advise you to pay it a visit if you have not been recently.
