We are a stone’s throw from Craven Cottage with beautiful views of the river from our Thames Dining Room and Terraces. Our Orchard BarBQ grills from Spring to Autumn when the sun shines. Housed beneath the huge high-vaulted ceiling is the big lounge bar framed by weighty wooden tables, a smattering of stools, paintings, old time photos of pre-war Fulham and all the ornate accoutrements you’d expect. Home to an award-winning comedy club, an acclaimed restaurant, the largest pub quiz in West London, live music and an always impressive, ever changing line up of guest ales, there really is something for everyone at The Crabtree.

Great no frills Fish'n'chips - (take-away or eat-in) Trip advisor reviewer wrote:- I've lived outside the UK for more than 20 years so whenever I go back there I seek out good fish and chips. This was the best I've had in years! A great little place on Fulham High Street, with great owners who care and take great pride in their food and their service. I will go back again and again!
