Randomness Guide to London Menu

A Fuller's pub on the Hogarth roundabout, a stone's throw from the Griffin Brewery — the closest pub other than the brewery tap. It claims to be the oldest pub in Chiswick, and also the only example with an old-style public bar separate from the saloon bar. RGLers have noted that the left hand bar (not sure which one this is? --Kake) doesn't seem to be open very often.

It's in the Good Beer Guide. The beer is predictably good, and the 3 main Fuller's ales (Chiswick, London Pride and ESB) seem to always be on. They also have regular guest beers from non-Fuller's breweries (e.g. Brakspear Bitter in January 2007). An anonymous visitor tells us that the cellarman has won an award, but we're not sure which one (the pub's not listed on the Fuller's list of pubs with Master Cellarman awards, but this could be out of date).

They do food, including sandwiches at lunchtime and a full menu with tapas in the evening. (The Good Beer Guide says no food on Sundays, but this is not correct.) An anonymous visitor tells us that food is served noon–3pm throughout the week, and also 6pm–8pm Mon–Wed and 6pm–9pm Thurs–Sat.

The same anonymous visitor informs us that they have a function room for social events with a solid wood floor for dancing, a secluded garden area, and a custom-built outdoor smoking area; and that they hold “regular music nights” (it isn't clear what this actually means) and have space available for art exhibitions.
