Ales in London

“Unbelievable service here, very attentive and engaging the food was TO DIE FOR. Only minor was the sharing steak (pictured) we felt should have chosen a larger size as we both thought it wasn't QUITE big enough, our fault, not theirs. The wine (pictured) is some of the best I've ever tasted as is the garlic bread starter (pictured). Will definitely be returning but at over £200 for 3 people probably only for special occasions. Thank you again to the staff here, truly exceptional!”

“Went there to celebrate my birthday with my family. What a lovely evening. Food was great, lovely wine(Viognier) and the service was excellent. The manager there is fantastic, he really looked after us and I must say I cannot praise him enough. That is what service should be like in a world where a lot of businesses have taken their eye off the ball regarding looking after the customer. Thank you again for a lovely evening.”

“We were so pleased with the black sheep today - what an awesome new addition to the village. Service was excellent and the food (starters and roasts) were delicious and well executed. Nutbourne wines were great as well. We are so delighted to have another superb restaurant in town. Thanks for the lovely Father’s Day treat.”

“A nice Sunday Lunch after a stroll around the scenic surroundings that Downe has to offer, cosy feel pub, with a big open fire to warm up beside, lovely food, good value for money, and pleasant staff, all washed down with a glass or two of wine!”

“I used to be a regular drinker at the Pied Bull before moving away. I returned this weekend and was very pleased to see that the place is still as welcoming and friendly as ever, with fab staff, delicious food and plenty of drinks options. It's dog friendly so my two cockapoos enjoyed the visit too, with lots of fuss from the welcoming staff and even a treat or two! I will definitely be visiting again when I'm next in the area!”

“Booked last minute after trying to find somewhere locally for a roast. Can only say wow, most definately the best roast we have had out in a long time! Delicious. Not cheap but where is nowadays. Highly recommend.”

“I am a regular customer of Piya Bar Kitchen, and I love it! The food is delicious, the staff are friendly and affordable, and they have a great atmosphere. If you're looking for a place to grab good quality food at a reasonable cost, I highly recommend Piya Bar Kitchen!”

“5 out of 5 ! It’s the Dart, nothing else needed.”

“Food is excellent here and not expensive. Had a king mixed grill masala fries, garlic naan and drinks Just right for 2 people not too little not too much”

“The Temple Brew House should be your next evening out in town. The food was delicious and the drinks were fab, all reasonably priced. The staff were super friendly and approachable! The venue looked great and most importantly had such a great atmosphere! A little music would have been nice as background noise, though this may just have been off as there was a game on the TV, however this did not detract from the evening!”

“I just had breakfast with my friend in cafe ole. Breakfast was delicious coffee was awesome and the costumer service of the staff especially Raffi was amazing. I highly recommend it!”

“Great old fashion pub.”

“Great friendly environment and staff quaint old fashioned run pub very relaxing a far cry from weather spoons that's crushing the traditional pub”

“Had lunch in the Albion today great food lovely pub Trish was so personable new pub on my map”

“I came here after searching locally for highly rated Sunday roast and they did not disappoint!! A very generous plate of beef with roasties, veg, Yorkshire pudding and cauliflower cheese. A gravy boat on the side! Cooked very well! Friendly staff and a warm atmosphere in the restaurant area of the pub. I cannot wait to bring my family here!”

“Fantastic place, clean tidy and the people are just so friendly, the staff are fantastic and nothing is too much trouble, just a nice quiet safe and friendly place to go for a social drink and chat”

“Another lovely evening at The Albany. Sitting outside to enjoy late summer al fresco dining while we still can as the evenings start to draw in. Fabulous and friendly service as always. Great cocktails and a Bang Bang Chicken burger, followed by a brownie and ice cream. Sheer bliss!”

“Lovely little local pub, great atmosphere, good food, selection of real ales & selection of alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages. A nice place for a cosy night out with a friendly community clientele”

“Having been let down by another pub for my partners birthday party, Fiona and her team managed to fit in our party of 18 with less than 24 hrs notice. The staff were so accommodating, great food, lovely atmosphere. Thank you - and we will see you again next year!”

“Lovely small pub, with exemplary bar stuff. Full of locals who knew each other and had tabs open... but the atmosphere was really friendly and welcoming they were a friendly bunch. Beer was good they had local "Shere Drop" which was lovely and well kept. It was not a cluttered pub with plenty of space between furniture and a beer garden. It was a football night when we visited but the fans were friendly and not too loud.”

“Lovely traditional pub, situated next to Ham Common and close to Richmond Park. This family run pub offered up a great selection of beers and ales as well as a nice food menu. The staff were great and very attentive, and the food arrived quickly. The portion was generous and the food overall was nicely presented and tasty”

“The staff are so friendly and welcoming, especially the landlord. It's a great pub to pop for a drink with friends and the "secret garden" is a lovely retreat from the business of life, especially in the summer.”

“My favourite pub in London which as a Chiswick local I am blessed to have here. A Fullers pub run by Mike and his well picked team who really know what they are doing. Expect warm welcome, nice crowd of all sorts of Londoners coming together over a great selection of Fullers beers and great Thai food. There are unique guest ones on tap rotated often and they always have crisp cold Asahi larger to wash down the best Thai food in London. Dogs are welcome like all good London pubs, our have developed a taste of Thai food and as a result, they always drag us there. Thai restaurant at the back if you are not a dog lover and want a restaurant setting for your night.”

“Lovely pub, right by the Thames. There is also a back garden/terrace so plenty of options to enjoy the sun. The food was delicious and very affordable, and the staff was friendly”

“Nice family pub. Big meals, usual beers, sport on TVs.”

“Came here for Sunday roast. We came a bit late in the day so the beef roast ran out. The pork roast was amazing. Booked in advance and got a good table inside.”

“I have been there a few times and I highly recommend it! An amazing pub with large screens for sports and friendly staff. Richard, the owner, is absolutely great!”
