Red Lion, Ealing

I love this pub as it's just across the way from the studios and the current landlord is trying to keep the link with the old Ealing comedies alive with it's decoration of 40's and 50's film memorabilia.
The beer is always good, the staff have always been friendly to us. It has it's own crowd of trusted locals and old beer sippers, but the outside bit is gorgeous in hot weather and a lovely boozer in general.
Don't even try and order food on a friday night.

The North Star, Ealing

This bar is the first one you'll see coming out of Ealing Broadway station, and it's blatantly obvious from the massive crowd inside that everybody else has spotted it too!
A fabulous pub with a great outside but if you can get served within twenty minutes then you deserve a medal! Don;t get me wrong the staff are great, but are always and the popularity of the pub works against you sometimes as you'll find yourself fighting for bar space and seats in the wet weather.
