    We could not have enjoyed our experience at The Andover Arms more! The service was absolutely amazing! The gentleman who served us was so lovely and warm making us feel right at home in a place we'd never been. The food was fantastic and the ambience and decor are stunning. We stopped to take a photo out front and a lovely gentleman jumped up from his seat with friends to insist upon taking a photo of all of us. Even the other guests were fantastic! We'll definitely return on another visit to Hammersmith!

    Found this sweet gem of a place on our short stay in London. What a find indeed! The ambiance is great, the staff amazing and the food was spectacular!! We even went back the next day!! Would totally recommend this wonderful place!

    We like this one as it is a real traditional local's pub tucked away in a really quiet side street between Shepherd's Bush and Hammersmith. Really good ale and the food is traditional and Fuller's haven't been tempted to give wither the pub or the food a gastroisation. If you like a pub to be a local's pub and not all stainless steel and flash them this is the ideal place for you. I would thoroughly recommend this place and suggest it is one of the few that is worth the walk to search it out. It does nothing flash and is just a good honest boozer offering a friendly and pleasant atmosphere.

    Lovely ambiance

    This pub is an absolute gem! We were looking for somewhere local to go, and decided to give Andover Arms a try for a Saturday night meal. The pub was surprisingly crowded, so I would highly recommend booking a table. I ordered the chicken and chorizo pie, which was absolutely massive. Our friends ordered the lamb shank which was even bigger! I was almost taken aback by the portion size (that says a lot coming from an American!) My boyfriend ordered the steak, which was unfortunately surprisingly small. However we were all satisifed with the food. It was hearty, savoury, and hot! The Andover Arms is cosy and has tons of charm. Honestly it's perfect for any sort of get together. There were couples on dates, families with their dogs, and groups of friends. I'll certainly be back!

    Sunday roast was delicious. Such large portions and we finished it all. The Fuller's Honey Dew lager was yummy too.

Being a Fullers owned pub it has a great selection of real ales and pub food - specialising in beer baked pies - I would suggest a good place for tourists wanting to escape the madness of the West end and enjoy a typical English pub and enjoy some good comfort food. Good selection of wines and the obligatory spirits and a decent courtyard out the back to smoke or enjoy the good weather. As far as I could see most of the staff are Aussie but I have to say they are very efficient and perfectly pleasant. It almost seems like a competition to see who can serve you first. Has a good local following of locals and a cross section of the community visit here, some reading the papers, others playing darts and the rest generally having a good time. Be careful if any big football games are going to be on the TV as this is not the time to go - It gets very busy, a visit to enjoy some decent food and a quiet drink will interrupted by the rowdiness that ensue.

For the next 25 minutes, no one recognized our existence. At one point, our server came by to clear the plates from the table next to ours (where they'd been sitting, dirty and empty, at least since our arrival and no telling how long before that). The table was inches from ours; the server almost had to perform contortions not to acknowledge us. She managed. While we waited, one guest at the next table told us, 'Don't order the lamb roast. It's bad.' One of his companions said, 'The beef roast wasn't good, either.' Those were the two dishes we'd been planning to order. Seeing no point in enduring terrible service to eat bad food, we got up and walked out. No one on the staff seemed to notice.

The pub is on the ground floor, there a two rooms with the bar running through both. In appearance and atmosphere, though pleasant, it is a fairly typical pub. Also, the staff are friendly and efficient. Through the pub garden there are a set of stairs that lead up to the theatre. It is a small theatre with seating for around 40. As one might expect it has quite a diy aesthetic, with the small size making performances intimate. A pleasant pub and theatre, a fun place to see local theatre, though a little out of the way.

Chiswick is an upmarket suburb of central London, so don't come here for cheap beer or food. The Tabard is a very nice place with an excellent range of real ales, hand-pumped or bottled, from Britain and from abroad. But a pint of regular British ale can cost as much as UKP 4.00, which is expensive for a venue outside of the immediate tourist area. Foreign ales can be up there at UKP 5.50. Or higher. The upside is the pub itself, which offers very cozy and amiable seating inside and out. There are several secluded booths so you can have a chat with your friends without disturbing everyone else. Generally speaking, there's much more room than the building seems to suggest. Staff are knowledgeable and efficient. Gets busy on weekends, especially the outside area, which is cordoned off from the street. Thankfully, the otherwise VERY busy Bath Road gets quieter towards the evening. As suggested above, this pub offers frequent stand-up performances and music.

Finally, on one of the "let's do a pub crawl closer to the house" nights, we ended up here. A pub that has more of a bar vibe. Nice selection of crafts. The bar staff is helpful with picking the beers. Some lovely aromatic Italian beers. To finish off the evening, I had an espresso. Shame they had Illy coffee...I wish they made their own coffee or some other sourced Italian coffees. Only disappointment...we were sitting by the bar first and then moved to a table. We went to order our drinks by the bar and the lady behind insisted she would bring our drinks to us. We were maintaining a tab and saw a service charge on our bill.

The…read moreItalian beer scene is underrated and under known and hopefully this bar owned by the Birrificio del Ducato brewery will address that somewhat. I stuck to their own beers on this occasion, although other Italian beers were available. Their AFO was a deliciously crisp amber ale, but their DIPA called Machete was the standout. I could have happily had some more but it wasn't the best long term plan. The bar seems a little expensive at first, but isn't really that bad when you consider the beer has been transported across from Italy. There were a couple of negatives. The large Machete measure was supposed to be 2/3 of a pint. Neither I nor the waitress realised this and so I was lucky enough to get a pint. They then tried to bill us for two halves which was a bit cheeky as it was not pointed out to us until after I had finished the pint. They did correct this when we pointed it out though so I don't hold that too strongly against them. The other problem wasn't really the bar's fault but when we arrived there was a large and very loud group of guys drinking, shouting and clapping. In my brief foray to the bar they were turning up the decibels on a charming conversation about how English women are fatter than Sicilian women. We retreated outside until they oozed off elsewhere.
