Tris C left this review about The Chancellors

Originally the Chancellor, this place seems to have been rebuilt in 1857, having only been in existence for a couple of years.
The pub has an interior which may be interwar years, with a hop bine- topped bar displaying the illuminated name to the parapet, flanked by two Watney’s ‘red barrel’ motifs. The floor is boarded and walls are white, with a white Artex ceiling. To the left, is a comfy snug with green painted panelling. Décor amounts to framed prints and a large sport screen showing football, tending to dominate in such a small pub. Customers seemed to be locals, conversant with fairly industrial language and a few incomers, possibly from the expensive modern housing developments nearby.
Ales amounted to Doom and Pride, my half of Sharp’s Atlantic (out of the frying pan…) at a fairly reasonable £2.50, served by a disinterested barman.
This place is ok and with an upgrade to decent ale and decent behaviour, could be something of a minor destination.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Chancellors

Traditional side-street pub located opposite the former Riverside Studios (and previously on the Thames Path which used to have one of its annoying diversions away from the river bank in this area). Staple-shaped bar with a gantried counter, plain modern furniture, a dartboard and limited decoration apart from photographs of various celebrities. Doom Bar and Pride (£4.10) from the pair of handpumps. Although still basic, things seem to be a bit more inviting than I found on my previous visit nearly nine years ago, and I still like the amusing pub sign.

This is a pretty ordinary backstreet pub – and from me that is a compliment. They had Courage Best and Spitfire on. The Spitfire tasted pretty good, and at £2.90 a pint not too expensive for the area.
I have to say that this pub's ordinariness makes it stand out from the crowd. It looks like something of a throwback to the 70s – or perhaps the 60s judging from the music being played (The Searchers, Four Tops, Diana Ross). Red “velvetine” settles with the odd rip in them set the scene. It only needed copper coverings for the round tables to complete the picture.
There are numerous black and white photographs of British actors on the walls, probably connected to the proximity of Riverside Studios. I rather like this pub, and recommend it to anyone who wants a quiet drink in a straightforward boozer with no apparent aspirations to be a gastro-pub.
