Known locally as 'Dracula's Castle' due to its neo-Gothic and towered brick construction, this multi-roomed pub dates back to 1894 and has now returned to being a hotel. Ho Chi Minh is believed to have worked as a chef here when he lived in West Ealing. There are two bars on the ground floor. A new bar has been built in the downstairs function room which seats around 110 for the regular music nights. Meals are served from a set menu with blackboard specials. Had a month long refurbishment in the spring of 2016 resulting in an extension to the rear car park, a summer bar in the garden and table tennis table. The interior sees the replacement of the back bar with modern tiling, and bare brick in the sports bar.
