Like its sister pub, the Oak W2, this is in effect a restaurant. There’s seating for drinking outside but on entering, there’s a meet-and-greet area where diners can be shown to their seats. There’s limited stool seating to the bar for drinkers but that’s about it.
The interior’s quite lofty with a trendy interior employing well-worn design motifs such as bare brick walls painted white, at least one wall covered with exposed log ends, trendy lamps on long flexes and a bare boarded floor painted white and now distressed through wear.
Service was friendly enough but there’s no real ale, possibly even no keg stuff either so I opted for a half of Estrella at a painful £2.70.
As there’s no real ale a here and the venue is arguably no longer a pub, I won’t be returning. The Tabard is jut ten minutes’ walk west of here.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Oak W12
Formerly a Grand Union gastro-pub (and originally the Seven Stars), the previously dull-looking exterior has been spruced up somewhat. The interior now looks more attractive too, with the large windows and high ceilings giving a light and airy feel to the front bar area and dining room beyond. Now almost entirely a restaurant, but there are a few stools at the bar and some wooden benches out front. Thankfully, it does now have some real ale, albeit Doom Bar at £4.00 from a solitary handpump. So, hardly a pub, but still an improvement...
