Definitely what you would describe as a "traditional venue". Long room with bar on left hand side about halfway down the pub. Plenty of light wood, so great if you are partial to that! A large skylight towards the back of the pub to add some natural light to that part on a pleasant evening. Some nice "booth style" seating at the back beyond the bar. The doors out into the beer garden were fully open so the back of the pub made for the most pleasant place to sit on my visit as the front and around the bar was a bit over-populated and quite rowdy! Saw the same demographic as Tris did on his visit and the split between the old timers inside and around the bar and the young-un's out the back in the ivy clad (one wall anyway) beer garden
No cask just East Coast IPA from GK, Stella, Cruz, Guinness, John Smiths, Strongbow, Becks, Amstel, San Miguel. I had a pint of Guinness, very enjoyable, dispensed by a quite surly, i assume, manageress, trying to work out why i had stumbled upon the place.
The place felt like it was in a bit of a time warp in a good sort of way. Equally baffled by the place being called Churchill's, only less plausible would be JDW re-opening a pub in Tonypandy and naming it the "Young Sir Winston"!

It’s true that this ‘shop conversion’ is more pubby than most, because as the Prince of Wales Hotel it has been a real pub since at least 1871 and with a Wandsworth Conservation listing to boot.
The previous reviews sum up the place well, being of pale varnished wood in style, stag’s head still in place, patronised by very cheery mainly older Irish customers, younger punters in the garden.
Unsurprisingly, the Guinness was at the fore and it was very good at only £2.10 a half, served by a courteous landlady.
This isn’t a bad place but it’s a bit dated in a modern way and the lack of cask is a hindrance. What’s really baffling though is why an Irish pub of all places would be called Churchills, or am I missing something?

I didn't really expect much to be honest but it is actually ok. I'm unsure as to whether this is a shop conversion despite its "shop" size, the building looks pubby and has some leaded glazing with green and maroon banding. Additionally there are polished wood features such as the double arch opposite the bar with a central period fireplace. The main area alongside the bar is boarded, the rear area and front corner raised section has a stripy carpet. To the rear is a pleasant outdoor area with well maintained picnic benches, there is also pavement seating to the front.
There were papers on a side table, music played at a sensible volume but most punters were engrossed in the horse racing on the pair of TVs. Three handpumps, two on, Caledonian Golden XPA, so so, plus Old Speckled Hen. An old fashioned locals' pub, nice to see in a gentrified bit of London.
