The Princess Victoria

Recently visited and was thoroughly impressed! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The decor was cozy and traditional, with great pieces of artwork all over the walls. What really stood out was the exceptional service. The staff were friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Our lovely server Shalom, was knowledgeable about the menu and made some great recommendations. Food was top-notch! We ordered a few different dishes to share, and everything was delicious. The portions were generous, and the prices were very reasonable. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great pub experience.

Writing about my experience 3 months ago, so maybe things have changed since then but: An average Sunday roast, nothing to write home about. The decor of the pub was nice, but the atmosphere seemed quite tense. The staff also had a confused air about them, and never seemed quite sure about what they were doing which left us unable to feel truly comfortable while eating. They weren’t also very attentive. Overall not a bad experience, but I won’t be a repeat visitor.

The Princess Victoria is a place full of history. It is located in the Shepard’s Budge market area, a 15 minute walk from the tube. The only reason I gave is four stars is because the pub itself is a bit isolated from attractions. But that is what transit is for! Let me tell you the reason why you should spend a few nights here. It is one of the first gin palaces in England. It was a large communing hub where people would stop. Recently it was also a filming location for the tv series the Gentleman. It is gorgeous inside with a good atmosphere. Great for those looking for a location to work remotely or hang with family, friends, and your four legged friends. The hotel room itself is cute and elegant. And It is just that, a room and bathroom. It is cozy and comfortable and all you need. It is not like a regular hotel, you check in at the bar and they give you a key and whenever you check out you there is a drop box to leave the key. Simple and straightforward. They have an amazing selection of wine and spirits as well as beer. But the food was my favorite part. There was a great selection of options. I had the fish and chips, probably some of the best I have had my whole trip. The fish tasted so fresh and the chips were perfectly crisp. My husband had the flat bread and dips, this was definitely shareable. The staff were very helpful when it came to dietary restrictions. If you want a unique and friendly atmosphere with good food and drinks this is the place to stay. You may also learn a new fact or two from the staff as well. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

The worst experience I've ever had in a restaurant. Our reservation was at 21:00 on New Year's Eve, the waitress didn't knew were was our table. When we get sat, we wait for 40 minutes for someone to offer us a menu or something, no one even looks at us, taking into account that the restaurant was almost empty. When we decided to ask for a menu because we were hungry, the waitress tell us that the kitchen closes in 10 minutes, when she brings us the menu she rushes us because because of that, then another waitress comes to rush us again and to remind us that the kitchen closes in 10 min, in a very pushy way. 40 minutes waiting for someone to notice us and all of the sudden we are so important, that was pathetic. We ask for dinner, and again, no one tries to offer us something to drink, I mean, it's a pub, so with dinner served and not even a glass of water, we ask a waitress for a bottle of wine, and she asks what wine, a bit difficult to know without a menu. But I look it up on the web as I didn't want to wait another 40 minutes to get served. Our plan was to spend there the evening, as for what they put on their website we could have had a good time for the new year's, but it was so disappointing. As we finished dinner we paid and we leaved the restaurant as we wanted nothing to do with that place. Oh, and of course the 11% on the bill for "good service" or something like that, HA! Funny joke.

We had the Xmas menu. The food was edible but really bland. The gravy was gloopy and out of a packet. The portions were pretty small. It really wasn’t worth it the price. I’ve been going there for years and it has gone downhill dramatically. The staff are friendly enough but seemed a bit demotivated. The whole experience was flat. A great shame.

Impersonal and bland. From the dour welcome to the indifferent service, there was nothing festive about this experience. The only small consolation was that the food was reasonable although served cold. We ate our lunch in a largely empty hall since everyone had been assigned meal times and nobody else had arrived yet. We were made to pre-order our meals no less than three weeks in advance (or presumably you didn't eat) which should have given them plenty of time to prepare. Service was poor with plates being handed to you instead of placed on the table and having to shout / wave to try and get their attention. Was it good value? NO. Would I go again? NO.

We have never had Christmas lunch away from a family home. This year we thought we would try our beautiful and welcoming local pub, The Princess Victoria. We were not disappointed — it was absolutely fantastic! It was busy but not too busy, the atmosphere was electric, the staff were all on good form (particular mention to Jay who is the very best of bar men and a great host! And Ez, the manager, who organised a brilliant day, and if it was stressful she did not show it and took the time to have a chat and wish everyone a happy Christmas!). Also a special thank you to the chef, kitchen team and waiting staff. The food was delicious, served piping hot and with military precision! The whole afternoon was simply brilliant and excellent value - also because you could pre-order bottles of booze at an offer price, a great idea. We will definitely be back next year! Thank you to you all who gave up your Christmas Day to make ours so memorable and fun! I wish the Pub and all the staff a great 2025! Very best wishes Karen & Nick

I dined at the princess Victoria with my two friends tonight for my friend’s birthday. We were served by Jack (Jacek) and he made our experience absolutely incredible and so memorable. His service was outstanding and he was so friendly and helpful with the menu and when dealing with our requests. He helped me make my friend’s birthday special with putting candles in the cake for dessert and bringing it out and singing happy birthday to her too! The service from Jack was the best I have received when dining at the princess Victoria and I can’t thank him enough for his hard work and kindness! The food was also absolutely delicious and we enjoyed every single bite of the Camembert, pizza and fish and chips! We can’t wait to return!

Great food! Great service! Fabulous ambiance! I recommend the scotch egg! So good. Roast Sunday dinner was good too!

Found this gem on an episode of No Reservations. First time having a scotch egg in my life and I have never been able to find one that compares. The bar was set high!!!

This is such a beautiful pub, with plenty of room and a secret garden area at the back. Service was good although a bit slow considering there weren't that many people around on a Saturday, early afternoon. The food was ok, I had a burguer which was a bit dry but my other half ordered the veggie burger and was impressed. We've had the Sunday Roast here on a different occasion and it was totally worth it. We might have to stick with that in the future.

Absolutely 100% worth the visit. Saw this pub/restaurant featured on Bourdain and had to check it out. It's a very cosy pub - the kind of place where you can grab drinks with friends and chill for hours. The bar area is spacious with plenty of seating. The restaurant side is small yet inviting. And they have a back garden area if you choose to take your drinks outside. I spared no expense when getting dinner and drinks here. Had a glass of Malbec to start with the most delicious focaccia bread I've ever had. As always, it's served with a dipping bowl of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Perfect starter. Since my eyes were bigger than my stomach, I ordered a traditional Scotch egg next, which was perfect. The mayo that it is served with has a hint of curry, which adds an interesting flavour to the egg. Then, onto the Sunday roast. I had chicken, which was served with roast potatoes and veggies. I ordered a Yorkshire pudding on the side (because what's a Sunday roast without a Yorkshire pudding?). Absolutely delicious. Perfect English Sunday dinner. Afterwards, we went out to the garden and had a few espresso martinis, which were perfectly made. Truly enjoyed my visit to the Princess Victoria. The staff are very hospitable and attentive. Cannot wait to come back!

Spoiler Alert : this was great ! How objective can I be ? Coz, you see, this was my very first Sunday Roast, like, ever. It's kind of a religion here, well, I don't have to tell you that. 27 pretty great reviews & their convenient location in Shepherds Bush led us to Princess Victoria ! A draught Kozel (Czech beer), a delicious piece of lamb leg with vegetables, and that crazy thing in the middle called Yorkshire pudding, (yes, first time here as well)...everything was delicious, and well balanced. The Bread ! THE BREAD :) Add a couple of friends and their baby, and it's the perfect sunday for me. The place looks fantastic, very "kingdom-like" a,d it's huge, making it convenient for families and their prams, but also for big groups of 6 people or more, or, for animals. Yup, this place is dog-friendly ! I guess my "sunday-roast" bar is now set pretty high right ?

My son and daughter-in-law had their wedding at the Princess Victoria. The pub is beautiful and the food was amazing. Our meal consisted of starters pizza bianca, white peach and tomato salad, potted Cornish crab and toast and French bean and anchovy salad. We then had baked salmon with homemade mayonnaise, New potatoes and cucumber salad. Being an American in London for the first time, many of these items were new to me, but I thoroughly enjoyed each and every one. While the food was delicious, I can't say enough about the staff at the Princess Victoria. Every one of the bartenders and wait staff were friendly, efficient and accommodating. Event planner, Laura was equally amazing, finding lost items and fulfilling every request. If you have special event and are looking for a special venue, I highly recommend the Princess Victoria!

I absolutely love this place and now that they have rooms I may have to move in! The scotch eggs are to die for and everything else on the menu is delicious. The staff was super friendly and the atmosphere perfect. Did I say that I love this place?

Spectacular. The pub is beautiful, great natural light, the space is wide open, and feels refreshing. The wine list rivals the best restaurants. The gin and tonics are the best we have ever had. I ordered the Sunday roast beef, my wife had the fish and chips, and we both had scotch eggs. One of the best meals ever.

Went for Sunday lunch today and if you like undercooked meat it's OK, personally I didn't enjoy the experience - the Yorkshire pudding was edible. In fairness what I saw of others people's choices they seemed to be enjoying their meal

Bad news. It's closed down as of July 1st 2017. A real shame. It was a great pub. The parent company shut it suddenly without the staff knowing.

This newly restored and refurbished pub / gastro is sure to be a winner with the local clientele. A bight and airy feel to this Victorian building, with a large bar area and plenty of space and tables to enjoy your food. When I visited the barman who it later turned out was the owner was extremely pleasant and helpful from the minute I walked through the door. Situated on the Uxbridge road it is a good walk from Shepherds bush green and is nearly on Askew road or the beginning of Acton. Those looking for a clean and relaxing place to go and chill should seek this one out. As long as it can get people up there, it will fly and be a really good pub / eatery. 2 courses for a tenner or three for £13.50at lunchtime consisting of crab bisque / apple cured herrings/Smoked bacon, black pudding, roasted tomato, poached egg and peppercorn sauce followed by spiced brioche doughnuts- Hope you like fish !! Or choose form the main menu which includes cod, lamb or a rib eye for around £14. Various deserts staring at £5. Dinner menu changes all the time, I hope they offer a bit more than the lunch which was a bit limited for me. A simply amazing private dining area upstairs which is fit for a king and a market going on outside on a Saturday bringing you produce from there suppliers, good luck to them in their new venture.

Like most pubs in the area, the Princess Victoria is more of a restaurant than a pub now with a huge dining room dedicated to eating. That said you can sit round the bar and there are a few bays in the front where you can plonk yourself and have a beer. Service is patchy but the food was decent. My sausage and mash was meaty, creamy and a fair price. And there were plenty of other more ambitious choices on the menu. They are certainly trying for more than pub grub, But the reason to come here really is the beautiful restoration job they've done on the place. It screams old gin palace. It's spacious in a very grand way and it has that feeling of ornateness you always get from Victorian places. They've done a splendid job on the ceiling. Just sitting there watching the world go by is a lovely thing to do and the Princess Victoria definitely puts this otherwise anonymous stretch of the Uxbridge Road firmly on the map. Definitely worth a gander if you're a fan of architecture, interior design or a posh pint before the QPR game.

I have been quite a few gastro pubs in London around Westbourne Park and Queensway. Most of them good looking people and lovely enviornment situated in a good location. Princes Victoria on the other hand is very kewl. The crowd is local and a bit older. People here are lovely, the staff and the bartenders are kewl and the food is fabulous. I would strongly encourage you all to check this place out. The inside of this pub is beautiful. This is also a great place for lunch and brunch. Just one thing I did not like is, this is a pub which charges resturant prices for food.

We've gone for the birthday of my husband. We asked for a quiet/cozy table and they gave us a really nice one in the corner of the room where we could sit quietly. All the staff were amazingly polite and helpful recommending us some drinks and the most tradicional Sunday Roast. The meal was amazing, we were surprised by the "calamari with alioli" thst was really tasty snd tender. The sunda roast was a huge portion really tasty :) We had some cocktails in the end, and they invited us for a wine as it was my husban's birthday. Really good place to go! :)

Beautiful building, nice atmosphere Nice drink selection The bread. Oh, the bread. Some food selections were sublime (thai sausages and the fried mussels!) The steaks were disappointing (two different steaks; two sets of Texan tastebuds) I'm between a 3 and a 4, because the steaks were so very boring and disappointing after the culinary prowess of everything before, but the high points were quite surprisingly high..... we had a nice time overall, so I'll lean 4..... but stay away from the steaks here -- explore the magical alternatives!

Came back agaon for a sweet treat and some drinks... Ended up staying a bit longer for more snacks... Still good!

A great pub in Shepperds Bush, perfect for a Sunday lunch with friends (we had a large table with friends and children for a birthday). The old Victorian pub has been beautifully restored and is split in two large rooms. The first one is set around a large bar with plenty of space and light around, and teh second one is the restaurant area with a very large table in teh middle (we were close to 20 on it) with light coming from the ceiling and a nice deco all around. The food was good, especially main courses but starters were not too inspiring. They have a wide wine selection at reasonable prices. Overall a great pub experience in a fantastic setting, we may be back although we are not quite local but I would like to try this in the summer.

This is a great pub. It is a gorgeous space. The service was friendly and attentive. The bread was phenomenal. They specialize in steak and my hangar steak special with chips was delicious. The chips were really well cooked. The watercress just lurking on my plate though was a bit lame..... The menu was massive--probably too massive for my taste. I bit overwhelming. They also have a wine shop--that is how seriously they take their wine. This has the qualities of a fine restaurant with the interior and friendliness of a pub. The only problem was that QPR was playing that day and it got too loud for a lunch. Lesson learned.....

I first stumbled on this place when taking a meandering walk home through Shepherd's Bush. Something about its outward appearance piqued my interest - perhaps its grandiose revamped-Victorian style, perhaps the sandwich board outside with enthusiastic recommendations from the FT and the Independant. I resolved to pop in for dinner some time soon. It took me a while to get around to popping inside, but once I had, I found myself returning soon afterwards. I've eaten here three times now, and each time the food has been pitch-perfect, wonderful feelgood grub without any fussiness. I'm especially keen on their starters and bar snacks - from smoked eel to crispy pig cheek to some wonderful patés and chutneys. And their bangers and mash - pork & chestnut sausages with parsley mash & cassoulet (aka home-made baked beans with lardons) - are the best I have ever tasted. To accompany this, there's a stonking great wine-list - I gather there are more than 350 wines on it, I certainly wouldn't want to count them all (although I'd love the chance to drink my way through them...). The wines aren't cheap - starting at around £15 and going up to the best part of £1000 - but the few which I have tried have been top notch. But this isn't just a trendy wine-bar: pride of place in the huge sweeping bar is give over to four hand-pumps serving some really, REALLY good real ales at sensible prices. (It has to be said that, bar snacks aside, the food costs more than you're likely to pay in most pubs - but in terms of quality you absolutely get what you pay for) The service is very friendly and usually attentive, although my only gripe is that, as the pub fills up, the service becomes a bit slower; but this is a place for sitting back and enjoying yourself at a leisurely pace, and to find fault with the service really would be nit-picking. Interestingly, after going here a couple of times, I mentioned it to somebody who runs a similar (and similarly good) gastropub in Sheffield; he replied that he knew of it, and had made a trip down to London especially to eat there. I can think of no higher recommendation.

First time being in the UK and this was my first place. It's absolutely adorable. People are so kind and easy to talk to. I had the scotch egg and it was delicious. It was a poached egg, wrapped in sausage, breaded and fries. Can't go wrong with that! Also, their gin and tonics are sublime! If you're in White City you must come!

The Princess Victoria is one of my top three favourite places to eat. The building is an old Victorian gin palace which has been sympathetically restored to its former glory, retaining as many as possible of the original features. There is a small courtyard at the back, called 'The Herb Garden', with bay trees, rosemary and various other herbs growing there, and antique garden tables and chairs, one of the few places these days where smokers can enjoy a cigarette after their meal. The presentation of the food is simple, no irelevent dribbles of jus, or sprigs of this or that, but every single item on the plate is essential to the flavour of the dishes. Potted Dorset crab was served in an individual white lidded dish with a salad whose dressing complemented it beautifully. Herring roes on toast were the best I have ever eaten, with lemon juice adding to the flavour. The 28-day aged steak was cooked just the way I requested, burnt on the outside and raw in the middle, and the thrice cooked chips were historic. Rissottos were moist and succulent. One of the best desserts I have ever eaten was home made amoretti biscuits with fresh raspberries and peach icecream - and there wasn't a sprig of mint in sight. Service is expert and friendly, spring water (fizzy or still) is free, as is excellent bread and butter. The special lunch menu, with a limited choice but the same standard of cooking, is a bargain at £10.50. After being open for only 6 months the Princess Vic won Time Out's Best Gastropub Award - and thoroughly deserves it.

Expensive, as gastropubs go, but well worth it. This is the only gastropub (hate the word but can't think of a better!) that really matches the better country pubs in Kent and Sussex for flavorsome food. The wine list is extensive and there are some cracking reds and a very reasonable prosecco that went very well with a starter of oysters. Hearty main courses such as the steak and chips (some of the best chips ever) and delicious fish mains follow surrounded by the constant hubbub of other happy diners. It feels almost like a brasserie but much more English! It's worth booking early for the weekends as the only table available on this particular Friday was at 9.30pm and not in the main dining room.

Came all the way out here just for The Aviator and the pub was out of the creme de violette to make it. Total waste of time.

We live in Miami and we were looking for Gin tasting and found this gem. We got a gin martini to start, followed by 4 other very different and magnificent gins with a great explanation from Jason, who is very passionate and knowledgeable about Gin and really loves his job. We had a great fun and it was a very good learning experience. The gin tasting also brought delicious food including their scotch egg. If I go back to London this is on the top of my to do's above any other landmark.

Christmas lunch 2016. Took about 2 hours to be served. Pork chop was half raw. Spent the rest of the day wondering if i would contract food poisoning. Fortunately I didn't.

Such a great pubor more correctly a gastropub. Huge great big ceilings and it's got really light and airy feel mixed with a bit of the old boozer and big animal heads (if you can picture that). Great food that's oldey stylee with an adventurous twist to it. Pretty decent value too and particularly if you go for the three course special.

Nice gastropub! Apparently a conversion from a dodgy older pub, tonight was my first visit. It won't be the last. The building's large, high-ceilinged, with much of the original detail left, just spruced up. The entry room is more bar-like, with a few tables and a large back room for dining. There are huge skylights and windows which must make it very light and airy in the daytime. I saw Timothy Taylor, London Pride, and some seasonal guest ales, plus lagers, at the bar. The food was great. Simple but delicious. Lots of it, too. I had one of the best ribeye steaks I've had in a while, good chips, a few green beans and grilled tomatoes, and the best bernaise sauce I've ever had. So buttery! That was about £17, so you're paying for what you get. Service was good, very attentive of all the details. Downside? It was very busy, and very loud. In the evening pre-booking a table is probably a good idea.

The Princess Victoria has lost its charm. It needs an update. The wine list is dated and after tasting a few last night I wasnt impressed. It feels like the menu has been the same for AGES!!!! it has a heavy, rich feel to it using some very fashioable ingredients, But it doesnt offer me a mouth watering urge. AND I am sad to say that the vegetarian option is what I would call a chef's attempt to offer people that dont eat meat a smack on the wrists. Service is as always totally lovely.

New years dinner was amazing, for starter the beetroot salmon just made my tongue go crazy with flavour, it is absolutely brilliant, the sirloin stake was on the spot I ordered (medium rare), the side chips we'll crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Finally, the brownie was rich with flavour and an excellent way to finish a great meal. The prices are according to the place and quality of the meal.

The PV is a massive Victorian gin palace on the Uxbridge Road. Now it is a gastro pub with a specific area for dining. The interior is interesting, with plenty of unusual paintings and bric a brac on the walls. Given it's size you can generally find a seat even on busy days. The bar is well stocked and given its gastro status I watched a barman mix a delicious looking martini cocktail-a first for what is after all a pub. It shows the bar staff are knowledgeable and well trained. This is definitely one of the better pubs on the run up to the Bush. Haven't tried the food yet but will certainly do so.

My partner and I had an amazing night here on a Tuesday. Her nickname is Ginderella, and the Princess Victoria's compendious gin list ticked all of her boxes and then some. The food was not an afterthought either. We had aranciata as a starter with an excellent sirloin and gnocchi for the two mains. It was topped off with a fluffy cheesecake paired with a Pedro Ximemz dessert wine, This place truly lives up to the term gastropub without living down to any of the snooty connotations. Really friendly staff, really excellent food, and really REALLY good gins. An all around exceptional place. We will certainly come back whenever travels bring us to London again.

Wow, what a great place. Visited it recently for the first time and if I'm that way again I'll definitely go back. Even just for a pint or so it's a great place to drink, with fantastic atmosphere, refurbished very sensitively to its age, not spoiling the effect. The food was fantastic and the staff attentive yet not in your face if you just want to get on and enjoy the meal.

Love this place. It used to be a bit of a dodgy old pub but has since been taken over, done up, gutted by fire and then done up again. It looks great, is huge, and has a large dining room. The food is superb, had a rare steak done properly (which doesn't happen often). The veg was lovely as was the duck (i got to try my friends. I think one of the big pulls of this place is the wine and fine wine selection. It's massive. Also has tons of other posh booze for the connoisseurs amongst us and beer for the rest.

At little off the tourist path but worth the trip. Excellent Scotch egg. Go up to the bar and strike up a conversation with any of the knowledgeable bartenders about gin. They know their gin. Excellent pub menu.

Dinner at the Princess Victoria the other night - after a manic day at work broadcasting Gordon Brown's resignation live... and a long journey from WC1... was satisfyingly comforting. The bread was delicious, very crusty - although it arrived seconds before our mains - we both had pumpkin and ricotta ravioli with pickled mushrooms - very well made pasta, decent filling - although the sauce was rather watery. The sticky toffee pudding was excellent though, with a vertiable lake of rich caramel sauce and crunchy pecans on the side. The service was very friendly - and they answered all my dumb questions about the dessert menu - I'm very particular about my sticky toffee pudding!

Stumbled onto this place during a walkabout in Sheperd's Bush the other weekend. Really cool layout with major skylights in the dining areas - it was too bad the rain was falling on said day. Didn't order any food, but by the large quantity of tables filled with people muzzeling down different dishes, I am only assuming the place has good grub. Way out of the way from where I live, but it did it's job on a Saturday afternoon when I needed it the most.

Perfect atmosphere for a few drinks after work, the Princess Victoria is a beautiful pub with an interior to match. They also have a trip to the Sipsmith distillery with a meal after which is well worth a look.

The food was great, staff were friendly and attentive and the general vibe of the place was just really nice!

My home from home..... u know the type of place. "Where everybody knows your name!" hehehe no been my local for years and i just love the place. Under new owners but still a great little place to go for a brew

If I could give it six stars, I would. I only wish the menu changed more often so I could visit more frequently! The wine list is excellent (though it gets expensive quickly), and the interior is beautiful - it used to be the Shepherds Bush tram station.

Been here twice for Sunday roast: fantastic roast. Get here early, though. It fills up absurdly quickly. Very family friendly, though, which makes the place that much warmer.

I think that this place was selected based on some confusion. We were just hungry travelers ( not dressy diners) looking for a pub. That said, we found ourselves there on a wine sale Monday and we tried to make the best of it. We were only one of three tables dining when we got there, but the way the waitress pushed us, you would have thought there was a line out the door and she needed to turn our table,quick. When we did order, she asked us if we wanted the kids' meals with our apps. We said, 'yes' . After a reasonable amount of time, the first courses came. My salad of goats cheese, beets, and walnuts was fine. The 'walnut' in question was a grit sized piece in the dressing. Otherwise, just cheese and beets. My husband got something and ate it. I was too busy watching my sister look for a walnut on my plate, that I missed what it ate. He said it was 'fine'. The kids ate their pasta without complaint, which is something, but not enough to judge a restaurant by. One of the kids would eat plain bread for every meal, given the opportunity. Speaking of bread, it was really good. Not free, but good (silo in Brighton has the best bread, though) We drank our wine and chatted after the app plates were cleared. Did I mention how difficult it was to wait on us? We were a party of seven who took a few minutes to make up our minds, but the waitress treated us like we were her bunions, so aggrieved was she by our existence. As the night wore on, she got nicer, or the second bottle of wine softened her edges. So, we were waiting. For almost an hour for the second course. I guess we were waiting for the braised portion of the lamb dinner (48 E for two) to wholly desiccate. the children didn't completely fall apart waiting to watch us eat our dinners, but it was touch and go. When we did get the dinners, they were okay. The rack portion of the lamb was really good an medium rare. The steak pie had a crisp, but barely existent crust over an extremely tomatoey center. It was okay. Good peas. We had great pie in Scotland, so we had unfortunately high expectations. Dessert was okay. The kids liked the ice cream. The strawberry tart wasn't too fruity, which would mean it wasn't fruity enough because it was a fruit tart. . The sticky toffee pudding was gut wrenching, particularly I because the way the waitress pronounced it was so Treacly. Water was free

My husband and I ate here last night and we were both very impressed. I loved the huge skylights in the main dining area. Nice touch was the complimentary bottle of sparkling water as we sat down. I had trouble deciding between the smoked jellied eel starter and the potted crab, decided on the latter and was not disappointed - bursting with flavour! My husband's ham hock terrine was also delicious. My main course of pork belly, apple puree, roquefort mash, black pudding and watercress was one of the most delicious plates of food I have had in ages - the flavours all worked together perfectly! The pork belly was melt-in-the-mouth tender! Impressive selection of wines and the very welcome wine by the 25cl and 50cl carafe meant we could have white with our starters and red with the main. We shared a tangy, creamy velvety tangerine creme brulee to finish! Not a cheap meal out but we thought it was good value because of the quality of the food and service. No hesitation in allocating five stars!

quite expensive but the food is great and they have a good selection of wines. the staff is very friendly too. This feels more like a restaurant than a pub but it's still a great place for sunday roast or an evening drink. and..you must try the sticky toffee pudding, the best I've ever had!

Very good but quite expensive. Worth a visit.

Owners of The Anglesea in Hammersmith have taken over this once shakey venue and restored the interior to its Victorian past. A spacious bar and seperate dining room, excellent food is available. A food market from the pub's suppliers is held every Saturday morning.

Great food and superb wine selection. Bit gloomy but the wine makes up for that. Nice staff, a bit dissapointed with their limited wine knowledge but a good place to have dinner and or drinks!

If you want something more than an average Sunday roast, this is the place. I can't believe I have lived so close to this pub for a year without going in! Inside is much nicer than the outside suggests. Courtyard doesn't match up to the rest of the pub though, this is a perfect rainy day place, light and airey feel. Posh for this neck of the woods. Landlord ale on tap too!
