  • Historic Interior

1867 corner pub with a comfortable lounge bar which has an exceptional Victorian bar-back. The interior is noted by CAMRA as justifying one-star Real Heritage status; note the dumb waiter, still in working order. The side patio is covered over in the winter.

Three handpumps offer at least two cask ales. The food offering includes a Mediterranean-inspired main menu.

The pub is close to the Hammersmith tube stations and may become crowded in early evenings.

Information for this venue is provided by the West London Branch of CAMRA

One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest

Listed status: Not listed

Worth visiting for its elaborate Victorian bar-back.

Built 1867 with three exterior doors (a fourth on the far right is blocked up), it now has an open plan interior but is well worth a visit to see its stunning six-bay late Victorian bar back. Bays one and two and also five and six have ornate mahogany broken pediments at the top featuring carved faces. Just below is a frieze of pairs of figures in relief painted in gold on a dark blue background. The main feature is a row of six mirrored panels with etched lower sections featuring birds and flowers. The whole room has a good frieze and deep cornice all painted brilliant white. Note the dumb waiter – the wooden exterior looks late Victorian, the lift modern and in working order. The bar counter might be old with a row of ornate strapwork just below the counter top, and with modest brackets.
