The Duchess Of Cambridge

The pub, now known simply as "The Duchess," has had numerous owners in recent years. The building is beautiful and has been nicely renovated. However, the food on our recent visit was disappointing. Several dishes were not available, and the steak pie and burgers we ordered were overcooked and tough. The whitebait starter, on the other hand, was very good. Additionally, we felt rushed as the bill was brought to us before we requested it, and the loud singer in the bar area made it impossible to have a conversation. Due to these factors, we decided to leave early.

Great food, service, ambience, furnishings, very good menu and wine lists, overall a really nice pub/restaurant and I wish it wasn't 50 miles away from where I live!

This is a beautiful old pub with an inviting real flame gas fire. Went with my family of 6. The food drink’s were served very quickly. We had a combination of six different main meals everyone was more than happy with what they ate. Five of us dessert of apple, berry rhubarb crumble custard which was to die for. Only hiccup was when we arrived at 7.30 there was a live band playing. Now as good as they were the songs they played, they were rather loud we had to shout at one another to make ourselves heard. When booking I asked for the quiet part of the restaurant as 4 of our group being 60- in ages weren’t to keen on loud music as we’d have to shout over it. But all in all a great pub with wonderful food hard working staff.

The last owners of this pub were not up to scratch and it closed. The new owners though are more experienced in pubs and restaurants and have made a difference. The beers is competitively priced for Hammersmith/Chiswick area as a pint of Fosters sets you back £4. Glass of Trebbiand white 250ml £6.15. The food is not the best around but nice for a Sunday lunch. We tried the roast at £12.95 for the lamb and £10.95 for the beef. Both meats were a bit chewy but the trimmings were good. In all though will go again but have to say The Raven at the other end of the street a lot better.

What an absolute stinker 3 times for barstaff to get my drink order the twice to get me food order correct the head chef walked past and absolutely stank of b.o at 2pm good knows what his kitchens like!!!?
