A pub inside a shopping centre.

Despite the seemingly unpleasant surroundings this is quite a nice pub, and definitely convenient for the tube (Hammersmith station is 1 minute away — I reckon you could get from your seat on the Tube to the bar within a minute and a half, given suitable lack of commuter density. We should test this. --Kake).

There is outside seating away from the shopping centre, although there is no real protection from the elements, unless you are seated close to the insubstantial decorative window shades on the pub's outside walls. The seating inside was uncrowded when we visited, but the music was quite loud. Not so loud as some places get on Saturday nights — I'd have preferred it quieter but I didn't really have that much trouble hearing conversation. --Kake

Service was good, but it was quiet at the time. The word I'd use to describe the service is “listless”. --Kake

The general decor is quiet but inoffensive, not bland but not in-your-face theme pub. Abbot Ale was �2.50, Strongbow �2.55. Also does food, but we did not try this. [Prices as of July 2003]
