The Mawson Arms (also known as the Fox & Hounds) was a pub in [[Locale Chiswick|Chiswick]], and the official brewery tap for the [[Category Fuller's|Fuller's]] brewery next door.
Good Beer Guide pub in [[Locale Chiswick|Chiswick]], and the official brewery tap for the Fuller's brewery next door - [http://www.fullers.co.uk/rte.asp?id=134 tours of the brewery] (£10 for adults as of September 2008) start and finish here. The location right next to the A4 isn't ideal, but the pub is a convenient 100m from the Thames Path.

Following the sale of Fuller's brewery operations to Asahi in early 2019, the Mawson Arms remained open until forced to close by the Covid-19 pandemic a year later. In July 2020, [https://chiswickcalendar.co.uk/end-of-an-era-fullers-brewery-tap-closes/ Fuller's announced] that it would not be reopening.
Food is served at lunchtimes (noon-3pm), and is above-average (if uninspired) pub food, at reasonable prices. In December 2007, [[elvum]] and friends sampled a steak and ale pie (standard Fullers fare - double-crust pie with a shortcrust base and puff top), sausages (slightly hoppy) and mash, and a perfectly adequate cheeseburger. Daily specials are available, but were slightly uninspired on this visit (shepherd's pie, omelette).

As you might expect, the beer is perfectly kept. London Pride was £2.50. The current licensees are TJ and Christine, formerly of the [[Star Tavern, SW1X 8HT|Star Tavern]].

Good Beer Guide pub in Chiswick, and the official brewery tap for the Fuller's brewery next door - tours of the brewery (£10 for adults as of September 2008) start and finish here. The location right next to the A4 isn't ideal, but the pub is a convenient 100m from the Thames Path.

In December 2007, elvum and friends sampled a steak and ale pie (standard Fullers fare - double-crust pie with a shortcrust base and puff top), sausages (slightly hoppy) and mash, and a perfectly adequate cheeseburger.
