Tris C left this review about The Tapestry

No, not a Carol King-themed pub, the Jolly Milkman as was, dates from at least the mid-19th century, possibly a rebuild from the 1930s, the current name arriving in 2003.
As mentioned, this seems to be more of a Spanish tapas restaurant, but hosts Brazilian Nights (as in the country, not lifestyle choice), where you can be serenaded by women dressed like a fruit salad. The interior doesn’t seem to be too Avant Garde – not that I had long to look at it – with just two pairs of customers.
There’s no cask here, so when approached by a barmaid, I asked for a half of Leffe, only for a gruff Hispanic type to overrule her, barking ‘Closed!’, this at 9.47pm on a Thursday, despite the advertised closing time of midnight.
Even if served, I wouldn’t have bothered coming here again, the intervention of the rude barman proving that the Tapestry has completely lost the thread, hombre.
If in SW14, stick to the Hare & Hounds.

Still a bar serving tapas and Spanish food but really not your traditional pub. No real ale, didn't spot any handpumps on my very fleeting visit.

More of a foodie place than a pub. Neat inside. Has disabled access. Food served all day, but no real ale. Guinness is £3.50 a pint.
