Inside it's a very large space, with several hefty tables along the front of the building, and in booths along the side opposite the bar (each of which would seat 4-6 people easily), as well as another extensive room to the rear of the bar. |
[[Bob]] first visited on a Thursday evening in June 2008 at about 10pm; there was only a smattering of customers. A decent pint of Pride was £2.80. |

Beers available are London Pride (£2.80), ESB, Discovery and Chiswick, as well as seasonals (London Porter on one visit, Jack Frost during winter). The pints are decent, and well-kept. |
[[Bob]], [[Kake]], and several others visited again on a Thursday evening in November 2008. This time the place was packed. They were having a Victorian theme evening; there were singing Pearly Kings and Queens (and one Prince) from Newham, Highgate, Finsbury, Crystal Palace, and other places. The staff were all dressed up too. They also put on a Victorian food menu, and brought samples of it around for people to try. |

According to the Fuller's website, food is served 7am-9:30am and noon-9pm Monday to Friday, 8am-10am and noon-9pm Saturday, and 8am-10:30am and noon-9pm Sunday. However, a board seen outside in November 2008 advertised breakfast from 7am-9:30am, brunch from 10am-noon, and main menu from noon-9pm. [[Ewan]] sampled the menu in February 2009. Their pie selection is fairly extensive, and there are two vegetarian options (one with black eyed beans), so [[Ewan]] went for the sweet potato, spinach & leek pie (£8.75). It came fully encased in crust on a plate including winter vegetables, and a creamy mash (an option was given when ordering to have mash, new potatoes, or chips). Gravy came in a bowl on the side. In all, a very reasonable pie indeed, tasty and filling. |
