Service and feel excellent. Not really a pub but restaurant. Good menu if limited cask beer on tap. Food really well prepared and served promptly even as it was busy. Strongly recommended read more

The liver. Second largest organ in your body after your skin. That's why, when you eat, you get hot. That huge organ is working overtime, sorting the fats from the proteins, sending vitamins this way and that. Helping your hair curl, your lungs fill with air and your brain compute splitting three ways. And they say Sunday is a day of rest. Not for the liver it isn['t. Not if you visit the Anglesea. My liver has sorted many a protein. But none I doubt as gleefully as the plate of molecules set before me at the Anglesea. My liver sent messages to my brain telling me to stop ingesting said ingredients on the plate. But my brain translated that to my mouth to simply ask for more gravy. The friendly server dutifully obliged. When my better half's mouth finally obeyed her liver and uttered the words, "I can't eat any more" my arms completely disregarded my liver's pleadings, reaching over to dust off her left over succulent beef. Every bit as good as my pork belly and only a firm beef eater or pork belly lover would err on the side of one against the other. Pork belly is a much abused cut at the Sunday pub lunch. I had a pork belly roast lunch the other day and I chewed through it like I was chewing through my 10 year old Adidas shell toes I can't bear to part with. But let me state for the record. This pork belly. Sensational. Crackling that does as the name describes. No chew. Pure crackle. Unctuous layers of rendered fat beneath. And tender strands of meat to chew on. Three layers of absolute heaven. Surrounded by gravy of perfect viscosity. Which you can ask for more of. Steamed veg that crunch and snap. And roast potatoes thick of shell and fluffy of innard. These are better than I can do at home. And they are pumping them out by the second here in the busy kitchen. A production line of perfection and the standard bearer for all Sunday lunch roast potatoes. These are the ones. The Anglesea is alive with people all day and getting a table o Sunday can be tricky. My advice is book whatever time they have. We took 4.30pm. The place was buzzing. The place, if you are cool enough to take your eyes off the pork belly, is full of old world charm. Lots of wood. Simple tables and chairs, quite tightly crammed in. A fire. Art on the walls. Higgledy piggledy and elegant all at once. The walls gently urging you to spend a little more on one of the good reds. Dust it off in your own time. This is lazy Sunday afternoon stuff and you won't be rushed. Give the liver a chance to regain its composure. The Anglesea has been packing locals and outsiders in for many years. And this is why. Roll me home and get The Antiques Roadshow on. Sundays have never tasted so good. read more

Our Host at Brook Hotel recommended this Pub and told us, they have great food there and we were not disappointet at all. They don't serve the classic Pubfood, it's a proper Restaurant inside a Pub in my opinion. Food 10/10 Service 10/10 Alcohol selection 10/10 Atmosphere 10/10 Go there if you are in that area and want to dine like a pro! :) read more

This was surprisingly a very good dinner spot. The staff, including the manager Simon, was very friendly and attentive. The food was also very delicious. It's probably one of the best eateries in London that I have experienced. read more

Located smack in the middle of a relatively posh West London residential area, this pub offers a good selection of upmarket beers, drink, and especially food. The most alluring thing about this pub is the food. I have often passed in front of the pub and inhaled the most wonderful aromas that seep through the kitchen windows. I must admit that I have sometimes even lingered outside the window for a couple of seconds more than I should have as I walked by. I am salivating just at the thought of these smells. Having had a three course meal dinner here, I can also tell you that the food does not disappoint. It is delicious. The Anglesea Arms is divided into a pub area, an outdoor patio with heaters and seating, and a dining room/restaurant area. The pub is decorated with dark mahogany wood panels, some leather sofas and ornate mirrors. The crowd is typical of the neighbourhood: upper middle class gents who often nibble on shrimps served in pint glasses. This pub is a bit pricey and you will have to dig into your pockets a little for the restaurant, but it is definitely worth the experience. read more

Anglesea Arms - Gastropubs Near Me - London, XGL

Between Harwood and Anglesea, we got a great tasting of London's gastropub scene. Not a bad dish between the many we've tried. If anything I would say that Anglesea ranks up there with Harwood at a more reasonable price point. I came here twice ... once with just a colleague and a second time with a LARGE group of colleagues. Each time, the food quality never dipped even a bit. My long time London based colleagues were shocked that a fantastic place was only minutes away from our office. Though the only thing was a bit unfortunate was the pacing... with a full house on a weekday, their service and pacing was very slow. I do appreciate how they never backed down from their food quality but only person clearing tables, taking orders, and 1.5 people serving food... it definitely drawn out the dinner too long. So this quaint and cozy pub is hidden in a suburb and even our Uber driver had no clue about this place. I love how the dining area is open to the kitchen and quite spacious above with it's skylight. Though the dining area is small, it is still well thought of as you're not tripping over other people to get to your table. The only small quibble about the restaurant is that it can get very loud with big groups. Our 15 people really jacked up the volume but we arent a noisy bunch but I guess the sound just bounces off all the surfaces. As for the food... oh goodness. so many great things. For starters, the smoked eel is really good... even though I'm used to Japanese preparation of eel, this local eel was so flavourful and unique. The skate main was my favourite dish of the entire week... pan fried crispy with the most wonderful corn salsa to top it off and make it my repeated dish. We also tried the burger (wonderful), risotto (great), steak (wonderful), another white fish (great but skate still amazing), terrine (wow), fries (MUST GET), ... you get the picture. With 15 people we ordered the entire menu and nothing was bad. Their berry mess and chocolate desserts are divine... save room! I will say if you go there and there isn't a big group like mine, you'll be treated to a wonderful friendly, knowledgeable, passionate and quick service. I really like this place and would be returning the next time I'm in Hammersmith. read more

Good gastro in the semi affluent area of Brackenbury Village that attracts a young and trendy crowd as well as a few other the older set who are still trying. Very much a pub of two halves with a restaurant area that serves very good if not quite expensive food and then the other half which is pub with a goodish space outside with seating which is also heated. It is quite remote in terms of getting there, so you would need to go and find it but I think that it is definitely worth the walk / taxi to find this place as you would have an enjoyable visit. One of the better pubs in the area frequented by a nice crowd. read more

Anglesea Arms - Gastropubs Near Me - London, XGL

We went here for our company Christmas lunch and what a good find this was. I work in Shepherd's Bush so it's hard to find something nice around, but this gastropub is great! There's a warm fireplace and beautiful old wooden decor, and the staff were all so lovely. We had to move tables because more people came than my original booking and they were super nice about it, even though we knew how inconvenient it was for them. For a big table we ordered two racks of lamb to share and our own appetiser. I got the ragu and it was delicious. The lamb was so soft, the meat fell off the bone immediately. We actually ordered too much so I doggie-bagged what was left and they did it with no objections (which some places do). At the end they gave me a few drink vouchers to come back, which I would love to! Beware of the white cat she looks sweet but scratches pretty hard. read more

Gastro pub par excellence! All about the food here, Great Kitchen and good selection of wines. a few outdoor tables, sofa near the fire place! Been here a few times and I'm never sorry to part with my cash. read more

My favourite pub in the neighbourhood! Gorgeous little pub, tucked away between ravenscourt park and Hammersmith. Beautiful dark wood interior with fresh flowers, and a fireplace. You can eat at any of the tables but there is a separate area to reserve tables in the dining room. There is also a small outside area with about 5 tables, which is my favourite area but just get there early because they go quickly! Delicious, I mean delicious food, more upmarket than regular pubs and the Sunday Roast.... oh the Sunday roast. The wine selection is on point, and the staff are super friendly and knowledgeable. You really cannot go wrong. read more

A nice and elegant hidden gastropub/restaurant just off the Goldhawk Road. The decor is rustic (wood everywhere) but the food is defiantly modern (if expensive - £18 for a Sunday roast, anyone?) with some seafood touches. Oysters anyone? read more

Anglesea Arms - Gastropubs Near Me - London, XGL

Apparently it's glory days were a few years ago as one of the first gastropub in West London. From the dinner I had a few nights ago, the new chef is doing a pretty good job at restoring its standing. I had the Colchester oysters, fresh and served with shallots vinegar, and the duck breast cooked to perfection with beetroot, artichokes and mash. Great fare for maybe a little too big a price. Shame the outside space closes at 10pm sharp. read more

The Anglesea Arms is a West London institution. It's got a cozy fire in winter and outdoor seating in summer. The menu is quite gastro, expect a bit of game on the menu. It doesn't have standard pub grub like bangers and mash for instance which I think is a good thing. The food takes a while so perhaps don't choose this place for a speedy lunch. There's a good wine list, and unlike the previous reviewer I've always found in the 6 years I have been going to this pub, the staff are fine, you just need to be friendly. read more

We came here on a Tuesday night, and the dining area was almost full, save for one table. Unfortunately they obviously tried to get as many tables in as possible, as it was really cramped, even though I am a small girl! The menu reads well; British, and in season. I found it a touch overpriced for the portion sizes though. All in all, a nice enough meal, but nothing special. I much prefer the Anchor & Hope in Southwark for a decent gasto pub meal. read more

This gastropub used to be a fantastic local: you couldn't book, and everyone in the neighbourhood squashed in to drink wine before eating a gastronomic treat. Now after a Michelin guide mention and the inevitable gentrification of the 'hood, it's become just another fancy restaurant that serves pub beer. It's a pity that the fine line between "gastro" and "pub" seems to be so hard to follow. read more

The Anglesea Arms serves some of the best food in London. Other than the room being really hot and the service a little bit spotty, we had a great evening. I started with a salad of roasted fennel and grilled squid. I then had a vegetable tart, followed by a chocolate cake for dessert. Each bite was outstanding, filled with flavor, delicious! All my friends said each of their dishes were outstanding as well. The location is on a quiet street and even if it takes you awhile to get there, it's worth the journey. read more

The Angelsea Arms is an adorable, cosy and quintessentially British pub located at the end of a beautiful street in between Hammersmith and Shepherds Bush. The street is lined with rainbow colored houses similar to those in Notting Hill, making the walk to the pub bright and cheery. The food is amazing and the staff are very friendly. I had an amazing pumpkin risotto which was phenomenal. It was perfectly creamy, and cheesy and I had to stop myself from licking the plate clean. It is definitely a hidden gem in West London.. read more

While this pub is always teeming with a homogeneous crowd (annoying in both the homogeneity and the crowdedness), it sits on an atmospheric little corner and offers pleasant outside tables. And on a cold day, if you can manage to squeeze inside, the cosy drinking area is a great spot to warm your bones (or by the fire in the dining "room"). Foodwise, I've only tried their packets of crisps as I haven't had the patience to wait out the crowds. read more

Love this place. It should be more crowded but luckily it's not. I'm writing this as a restaurant review, but the bar is very nice, though I wish they had a decent wheat beer on tap. This pub has some of the best food I've had in a London pub. Each time I've eaten here I've been very pleased with the meal. Last night we both had the hangar steak, served with fries and runner beans. The steak was superb, the fries were crispy and delicious, and even the runner beans didn't disappoint. For £16 I got a much better meal than I usually get in a gastro pub. If the Anglesea Arms were in central London it would be packed every night. I often dine at the Ladbroke Arms in Notting Hill. The staff are very nice and it's well located. But the menu is frustrating, often leaving it difficult to make a decision. Though the reason is the lack of good choices rather than too many. Prices at the Ladbroke Arms are higher than any pub I've eaten in. Just as I was getting despondent about the high price, mediocre quality of so called "gastro" pub food, I discovered the Anglesea Arms. Faith restored! I've eaten here a number of times (different dish each time) and each time I was pleasantly surprised with how good the meal was. Service is very good as well. I prefer sitting in the bar area to the dining room in the back since it's open with space between the table and is better for people watching. There's outdoor seating out front as well. Now if they'd only get a good wheat beer or two on tap, I'd move to Wingate Road to be nearer! read more

I haven't tried the food here, so the gastro pub label really doesn't make sense to me. I love this place, it's homely, worn in and wonderful. The bar staff are always friendly and they have a great selection of drinks. With it's own resident cat (be careful about stroking it, it's not always friendly so you may get a scratch). A really relaxed pub which is a firm local for me. read more

One of the founding fathers of the gastropub movement in West London, this is a cramped pub with drinking to one side of the bar and dining to the other. Its a first come first served arrangement so you can be waiting for ages. Service is very slow and I've found the staff a bit intolerant & snooty, almost as if its run by a middle-class family and you're incoveniencing them. Still it gets good reviews for its British bistro style food, but I won't be paying it another visit. read more

The Anglsea has been here for a number of years now but having a change of chef recently has really made an interesting difference. Pigs trotters, partridge, razor clams to name just a few welcome changes to what was always a good menu. A fine selection of wines by the glass and bottle and moreso a good selection of ales. Stroll around Ravenscourt Park after in the spring sun makes for a perfect Sunday. Always popular the only negative would be not getting a seat straight away. read more

Always have a good meal at this pub no matter what time of year. Their Sunday Lunch is also very good. Wine selection impressive for a small pub read more

The Anglesea was my first gastropub experience, and I'm now hooked. If you're looking for standard pub food like pies and burgers, DO NOT go to the Anglesea. However, if you're looking for a relaxed pub atmosphere serving up eclectic, inventive and downright delicious food, then you've come to the right place. Since the menu was available only by looking at a chalkboard on the wall, I'm guessing the menu changes quite frequently. Complimentary bread and butter were provided to hold us over while we navigated through the array of choices. Starters ran about 7-8£ . . . there were approximately 10 starter choices. I had the mackerel served with a sweet potato and green salad. Light, fresh, and delicious. My friend had the celeriac and apple soup. It was divinely decadent and flavourful . . . think cheesy and savoury on the front end with an interesting apple sweetness at the end. The couple next to me was eating a pile of prawns served in a glass mug. Can't say I wasn't tempted to reach over and grab a few! Main courses ran about 14-16£. Again, there were approximately 10 choices, with meats ranging from pigeon, chick, pork, beef, seabass and more. The seabass was cooked to perfection and accompanied by leeks and potatoes. My friend had chicken roast and mashed potatoes. Both meals were delicious and hit our comfort food spots. The wine list was extensive, and there were plenty of mainstream and unheard-of beers to choose from. My pint of Pilsner draught was 3.50£ - very reasonable. There was a dessert menu too, but we were too full to try it. Next time . . . . *On a side note: There are multiple pubs in London that go by the same name - make sure you're going to the one in Hammersmith. read more

This place provides one of the best service in London, the food was good . I enjoy dinning in the bar area and chat with the bar guys. Personally I like thier Sunday lunch supply and the wine selection. read more

Tried this place for dinner last night and have to say I rate it. Despite the somewhat tired exterior the inside was very warm, cosy and welcoming and had a real village pub feel. Despite the feel, it is however, def. more restaurant than pub, not that this is a bad thing if that's what you go there for. Barnsley Chop my wife had was top notch, I had fish (gurnard) and although it was simply done it was full of flavour. Chocolate dessert was amazing, the wife didn't speak for 5 minutes enjoying each mouthful, which was an added bonus! ;) The beer was well kept (Otter and Caledonian sampled) and the wine list reasonably priced and enough choice to keep you interested. They also do small glass, large glass, carafe or bottle of everything on the list, which i always think is nice to see. At the end of the night we left saying that we were glad we'd found the Anglesea and we'll be back. So i look forward to my next visit. read more

Great to see the institution that is the Anglesea back in action. I have eaten there three times since it reopened and delighted to report the standards are as high as ever. For me the seafood is the star here and is as good as I have experienced in Michelin 1star restaurants. The menu varies and will also include seasonal game and fare you don't get in a typical gastro pub. A great wine list and good beer. Also has some interesting celebs in there from time to time. The bar stools are gone from the bar but apart from that it is the same rustic gem so credit to the new owners.. read more
