Historical version 2 of Drayton Court Hotel, W13 8PH (view current version)

A very large Fuller's pub just by West Ealing Station.

Just on the ground floor there are at least two separate rooms for drinking alone. One side is more sparsely furnished, bare floors and includes a pool table, while the other is a little cosier, with some carpeting, tables on a raised area, and a outdoor terrace drinking area. There's also a separate dining room, and further function rooms available upstairs. Despite its size, it still manages to feel quite cosy and welcoming, helped by the friendly service behind the bar.

On the ground floor bars, there are four handpulls on one side and three on the other, serving the usual Fuller's ales (London Pride, ESB, Chiswick) as well as Gale's Seafarers Ale. In winter, mulled wine is available for £3/glass, and there's also a range of draught taps for lagers.

Food is served noon-9pm Mondays and Tuesdays, noon-10pm Wednesdays through Saturdays, and noon-8pm Sundays. On his December 2009 visit, Ewan tried a fish pie (around £9.50) photo, which though pricy was very large indeed and had a decent amount of various seafood in it, though it could have used a bit more. However, again, service was very friendly and plates were cleared promptly.
