Quite possibly the best summer pub in south west London.

Ok, so the beers are expensive, but they have one of the best collections of European and World beers in the UK.

Best of all in the summer it's heaving with good people that all spill out onto the green to drink, be merry and play frizby. Yay - role on Summer!

Great beers

This is a pub that truly takes beer seriously. With hundreds of beers on offer, and "rustic" decor, it's a really great location for a quick weekend drink.

The restaurant is expensive for a pub but of a very high quality--as mentioned the fish and chips is brilliant.

The clientele can leave a lot to be desired--singing Chelsea fans and "young professional" types down from South Kensington make up the primary numbers.

Bring your own friends, enjoy the park, the Pimms, and the beer!

Ale, fish and chips, signet rings.

I really struggle with the Sloaney Pony moniker: it's horrendous, and does live up to its name - as Lucy says - with the Clientelle.

However, I started eating there recently and the food is absolutely brilliant, including the best fish and chips you can get in SW6. It's just that you have to go on a Sunday to avoid the crowds and Hackett shirts.

Amazing array of ales, and a great place to take your dad, especially if he has a beard since it's the home to many CAMRA meetings. He'll feel right at home.

Summer is best for The White Horse given its great outdoor space. Otherwise it'll be better after the smoking ban since it always had a bit of a dark smokey lustre for me which was a bit of a put-off.

...as it is known. And for obvious reasons. Though the Clientelle may be slightly predictable, the location is perfect and the outside area is great in the summer. Pimmstastic. ...or worth a visit if you just fancy pulling a posh girl.
