🚇 Gunnersbury 🍺 £6.30 Paulaner The Gunnersbury pub is located at the west end of Chiswick High Road in West London. The nearest Tube is Gunnersbury which is just across the road. The John Bull Hotel was built in 1853, the name can still be seen on the right gable of the building. This pub has been altered over the years, it was converted into a Truman Gateway pub in 1972 and was also a famous music venue. Visited bands included The Who, T.Rex and Thin Lizzy to name but a few. The pub was renamed The Gunnersbury in 2009. This is a two bar pub that is traditional at heart and decorated with some bold colours. The bar to the right is bright and airy, has a pink panelled servery with high level seating throughout. The bar to the left is considerably larger, has more subtle decor and an eclectic mix of low level seating. At the far end of the bar is a raised section which is a remnant of the old stage. A couple of nice features include the stained windows and photos of music legends. At the back is a partly sheltered patio beer garden. The beer selection offers a decent mix of continental lagers, London brews and cask ales. I decided on a Paulaner, my pint was excellent, price point was about right, I loved the beer pump. The food menu offers burgers, pizza, club sandwiches and home cooked specialties, Fish & Chips costs £16.30. I arrived just after 12pm on a warm Saturday lunchtime in May. The pub had not long opened and had a few punters in attendance. I met the Landlord who was kind enough to tell me about the history of the pub and his time spent in pubs and most notably his time being part of saving The German Gymnasium building by Kings Cross station. He mentioned that most of his trade comes from the local business park and fans on Brentford match days. This was one of my most interesting pub visits this year. I loved learning about this pubs journey from the Victorian era through to the rock legends that performed here. A very good beer selection, first class hospitality and a nostalgic setting make this a must visit London Pub. ℹ️ Info correct on visiting 11.05.24

A cavernous pub close to Gunnersbury station. A good selection including a couple of cask ales. Looks like it could be great fun when sports are televised. Good to see the six nations already advertized! Service was excellent, done with a smile to make it even better. A good place for a pint.

A lovely place for a New Year celebration. It wasn’t too busy but still a fantastic evening. They have a great outdoor area with some heaters, as well as a large open space inside. There is a fairly good amount of seating. It is very LGBTQIA+ friendly, and I felt very safe here. Great music, great sound system, and the bar is quick with plenty of staff. I look forward to returning! It was so welcoming.
