    I'm going to call this pub a hidden gem! It was a bit hard to find but I'm so glad that I found it!…read moreIt's located next to a lovely park and sits at the edge of the river. Walking in the bar area is spacious yet cozy. Then you approach the inside dining area which leads to a lovely outdoor dining patio and waterfront seating. We got there as soon as the pub opened and quickly watched it fill up with locals. The service there was amazing, attentive, and they were very good with tourists. The food was amazing!!! I loved everything I ate there except for the mac & cheese; which after adding some of the gravy (jus) from my chicken to it, it tasted way better. The desserts were also delicious! I highly recommend giving this pub a try!!!

    Complete disappointment. We travelled 40 minutes to this place for Sunday roast, based on glowing…read moreonline reviews. We were seated and given menus. 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 Tabard is a theatre pub in Turnham Green (pretty far west London). I went last week to see an…read moreacquaintance in a production of a modernised Dorian Gray story. 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.

    Cozy, scenic theatre pub in Chiswick, very close to Turnham Green station. Pleasant decor, smallish…read morebut likeable outside seating area. Beers aren't cheap. 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.

    We have been wanting to go here forever but didn't get down to it. But it came recommnded from an…read moreItalian friend, which meant this had to be ticked of. 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. We were planning to tip anyway, but it was annoying to see service charge for drinks..AT A PUB! They lose one star for this very reason.

    How was I not previously aware of this bar? An Italian beer bar in London. Frickin' awesome. 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.
