Duke on the Green

Overlooking Parsons Green you'll find a friendly boozer featuring stained glass windows, printed cushions, leather armchairs and towering wooden pillars. The popular Duke on the Green is a boozer that's been around since 1791 and continues today to serve revellers with a range of craft and continental draught beers. Whether it's a slap-up Sunday roast you're after, or simply a quiet drink with friends, this spot can cater to your needs, especially with its irresistible menu. Think Aspall cyder-battered haddock sandwiches plus pork and fennel sausage rolls. 

The Rose Fulham

The Rose pub in Fulham is undoubtedly considered to be the village boozer of the area. You'll find it just off of King's Road, boasting a gorgeous, leafy beer garden and homely interiors, such as a roaring fireplace and notes of duck egg blue and greys. It's quite simply idyllic to kick back and relax with a local craft beer or a dish from an ever-rotating menu of seasonal, British plates. Look forward to the likes of flaky sausage rolls with brown sauce, fresh Caesar salads, and beer-battered fish and chips, served alongside mushy peas, charred lemon and tartar sauce.

Golden Lion Fulham

Lunch With Mates

Only a short walk from Putney Bridge station, Golden Lion is one of the Fulham pubs best known for its expansive beer garden, laced with fairy lights and packing rows of benches that see visitors and locals alike gather around, drinking cool pints on warm, sunny evenings. You'll also find a collection of screens here showing Sky and BT Sports, plus a trustworthy menu featuring mix-and-match small plates where you can bag three for £13.75. Choose between drunken mushrooms, halloumi fries, 'kimcheese' bites and more.

The Brown Cow

Escape the busy Fulham high street and make your way over to The Brown Cow, a gorgeous, lofty pub filled with rustic wooden benches, leather seating and industrial-style lighting. It's cool, cosy and most importantly a fantastic spot for a bit of lunch or a gin and tonic. Bringing a slice of the British countryside to the city with its aesthetic and menu, it offers sharing boards, pub classics and tasty snacks to eat. Produce is sourced from local suppliers, with brunch featuring the likes of smoked streaky bacon, sausage and Stornoway black pudding, while evening brings Brixham crab linguine, heritage tomato 'Panzanella' and more.

The Tommy Tucker

One of the best pubs in Fulham and Chelsea? Why it has to be Tommy Tucker of course. Oozing old-school charm mixed with modern comfort, it doubles up as an incredibly versatile event space as well as a boozer that's popular among locals. You'll find quirky artwork on the walls, leather sofas and a cracking menu that spans from brunch through to dinner. Gather your friends and share a baked camembert, or devour a braised shin of beef pie yourself, before washing it down with an ice-cold pint. 

The Mitre

The Mitre in West London offers a modern twist on the traditional gastropub experience. The pub features a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere and a secluded walled beer garden with heat lamps, covered seating, a BBQ, and an outdoor bar for all your alfresco pleasure. The menu showcases locally sourced British produce and offers an extensive selection of ales, beers, and wines from all around the world.

The Kings Arms Chelsea

If traditional is on your checklist, then head to The Kings Arms Chelsea, where you'll find shabby-chic walls, low-hanging lights and a gorgeous skylight fronting a twinkling chandelier. Showing live sports and pouring real ales, lagers and glasses of wine, this spot is a real gem and only a short walk from Stamford Bridge. You can explore a menu showcasing some delicious British food, like Neck Oil IPA chicken wings (perfect for match days), signature burgers and braised lamb and pea pies, with sticky toffee pudding for dessert. 

The Chelsea Ram

Perched on Burnaby Street, The Chelsea Ram is a homely haunt fronting navy walls, eclectic decor and bookcases transporting you to your favourite neighbour's living room for a delicious bite to eat. The gastropub is home to fine wine, refreshing beers and a pie night on Tuesdays. Head chef Raf is at the helm of the kitchen, using sustainable and seasonal ingredients to create the likes of pulled pork and pitchfork cheddar croquettes, black pudding Scotch eggs and charcuterie boards to share in laid-back surrounds. 

Cock Tavern

If you're looking for Fulham Broadway pubs then you'll be thrilled to stumble across Cock Tavern, located only moments from the station. Unique in many ways, including its decor which sees eclectic bird prints, wooden panelling and pop culture icons adorn the space, it promises weekly quiz nights and a cracking Sunday roast come the weekend. It's at the heart of the community, serving up scrumptious small plates of Devon crab spring rolls, plus pork, apple and sage Scotch eggs, as well as moreish mains like its Tavern burger, complete with a double beef patty, cheese and gherkins. 

The Harwood Arms

When it comes to haunts that mean business in the gastro pub in Fulham department, Brett Graham (of Ledbury fame), Mike Robinson (Pot Kiln in Berkshire) and Edwin Vaux's creation is second to none. The Harwood Arms offers award-winning food and wine and is one of the only Michelin-starred boozers in the city. Enter a light space filled with natural woods, antique pine tables and leather-coated chairs to sample three courses for £70 or two for £55, with a focus on game and overseen by head chef Josh Cutress. Up for devouring? Iberian pork and trotter pâté en croûte, lasagne of rabbit shoulder and milk flan with poached blood orange for dessert.
