| Sir Michael Balcon was a film producer best know for his work with Ealing Studios. The pub itself is average at best. Tuna - 26 Feb 2017 20:06 |
| It's interesting that Mr. Wetherspoon himself, Tim Martin, has said that although he backed the UK's exit from the EU, he is wholly in favour of the free movement of people, and of its remaining in the Single Market. Certainly, he seems to have made use of the supply of energetic young people from around the EU to further his business, and good luck to him on that point. I've generally found his staff to be OK, given that to which they are subjected by the customers in some of his venues. I suppose that since he's pitching his product at the less well-off, then no, in the round, he has nothing whatsoever to fear from the UK's exit, and from the corresponding economic downturn which rushes upon us as I write. eddybeer - 5 Nov 2016 11:12 |
| I am amazed that staff get positive comments in these reviews. My own experience has been that the Wetherspoon's regimenting of staff duties & the general uninterest or arrogance of the servers, especially the females, militates against the customer & the efficient running of a pub with good customer care. Countless times, I've waited to be served whilst a staff member fiddles with glasses or wipes up rather than serves, all because of the roster which must be kept to. If one says anything, one risks being refused service; no constructive criticism is accepted; & it's always been like this. renzarov - 5 Nov 2016 10:37 |
| Its really the heart of Ealing, open from 9 till 1130 mid week the food is really well priced, though sad to see the end of the sunday roast. the guest ales are always ever changing and soon it will have Craft beer on tap *i have on good authority*. The beer is always fresh the staff always friendly and well mannered, I personally drink here a lot so maybe im biased but great pub. Only real complaint is the bathrooms are upstairs which is true for many wetherspoons pubs but otherwise. FOOD: 9/10 *fresh steaks are awesome* BEER: 10/10 always enjoyable. CLEAN:10/10 (unless its really busy Friday night but always clean) STAFF: 10/10 always polite, good service and good at dealing with problems should they arise. PRICE: its wetherspoons... cheap as you'll get in ealing. overall aliceD - 23 Apr 2016 13:15 |
| Fairly generic Wetherspoons but many pubs in Ealing are expensive so this place is useful if you are on a budget. A perfectly reasonable place. Richard_ReadingFC - 24 Feb 2016 10:36 |
