The Bell & Crown, Chiswick

We tried to keep it as simple as possible ordering 3 fish and chips. We asked for one to have the chips on the side as those were meant to be for our daughter. The first server was really rude acting like he was doing us the greatest favour in the world. 5 minutes later, after he took our order, we saw him going outside with a beer, so clearly his problem was being in a rush as his shift was over... Anyway. We got two fish and chips with chips on the side (so the first server were clearly not even listening). The chips were actually fries... Whomever cooked the fish took too long to deep it into the oil, as one side (the first they put in the oil) of it was way more cooked than the rest, and the tip of the tail was left with almost no batter at all. The fish itself was decent, but overall overdone with (as mention above) one side completely inedible and stone rock. The oil was clearly not fresh, and the fish cooked not at the right temperature, as the initial crispiness disappeared after few biters to leave us with something soggy, and trust me, I'm not a slow eater. The tartare sauce was nice, but with the vegetables inside unevenly cut. The side of peas were decent but overly seasoned. It was busy for a Tuesday evening, but I'd expect better from a company who claim to be better than its rival from Green King, M&B or Brunning and Price.

The best pint of London Pride beer I've ever had, it was a bit pricey but I suppose your talking London prices. Food and service excellent.

Quite large pub with good selection of beers. Good view of the river. The food is pretty good and not too badly priced.
