The Fox and Hounds, Battersea

I don't know when this pub was updated but all of the reviews for it seem to be from years ago. A sea-change must have taken place. This is now one of the best food pubs I have ever visited. The ambience is great - not too foody with enough 'pub' about it to keep it in GPG not GFG. The beers are excellent including a number of Hophead stalwarts - now my favourite local brewer. The food is fabulous, essentially Mediterranean and hugely authentic. The staff are top notch, friendly and animated. The prices are not silly. And all within a stonesthrow of Clapham Junction. I am sure we will be back!

The Masons Arms, Teddington

What a great pub this already is - and getting better. It's certainly not for youngsters but, for me, has a heady mix of real ale (frequently rotating - the beer not me), good banter and a fabulous juke box.

Nowhere betters it in Teddington.
