The Anglesea Arms, W6

Definitely a food centric pub. The front bar, however, is available for drinkers, with the area to the right of the bar as you enter seemingly for diners (at least that’s how it looked to me when I was in there during a Wednesday lunchtime). There were four handpumps on the bar – two were not in use, and the other two were dispensing Timothy Taylor Landlord and London Pride. The Pride was OK. Seating in the bar area consisted of sofas, banquettes and normal tables and chairs. Behind and underneath the banquette at which I sat was a load of firewood. An unusual feature I thought, until I spotted the fireplace, which I guess they must use for the purpose for which it is intended, in the winter. Now a log fire on the go in the winter really is an interesting feature. The food might be good (but I didn’t eat and thus can’t comment), and the menu looked varied, but I prefer the more basic pub. Having said that, the main bar area was comfortable enough and I wouldn’t mind dropping in for a pint if I was nearby, but I don’t think I would go out of my way to visit again.

H B Clarks only pub with Clarks and guest beers always avalable. Real fires in a cosy many roomed pub with bar snacks. Restaurant for those requiring more formal eating. Car parking at front of pub.

Cant believe there's no review. Anyway this pub is my favourite in Hammersmith.Why? Querky interior yet with dining area, lounge & open fire & enough other seating areas both inside & out. Now the best bit. The food is a pleasure time & time again. They've really got it right with plenty of fish dishes, oysters, red & white meat dishes but all with an abundance of well put together other ingredients & sauces. The wine list wont disappoint & the beer & ales are spot on with regular changes on the ale side. It's popular with 20' 30's & 40's alike but the attentive & likeable staff really do their best for you & that's why I keep going back there. Mains are about £12-16 and worth it. Tip. try to get in before 8pm. No bookings
