Hammersmith: Best Pubs, Bars & Restaurants
A part of London which is often overlooked due to the Hammersmith flyover and huge roundabout, but you won't find those that live in the area complaining!

There are also hidden gems a little bit further from the centre.

The Blue Anchor
(Bar)
13 Lower Mall, Riverside, Hammersmith Bridge, London, W6 9DJ

(Bar)
54 Cambridge Grove, Hammersmith, London, W6 0LA
Cuisine: Gastro
The Stonemason's Arms in Hammersmith is one of the original and best gastro pubs in London. Patrons consist of 'cool' people living locally and those just out from work, the Stonemasons Arms is busy most lunchtimes and evenings - especially on Friday.
5
Queens Head
(Bar)
13 Brook Green, Hammersmith, London, W6 7BL
Cuisine: Gastro
This fanatastic quiet pub is much overlooked, tucked just off the Shepherds Bush road on Brook Green, this is a great place to hide away night or day. Chilled jazz slides from the speakers as smoothly as the beer from the taps. Ample seating at candle lit tables is available in this deceptively large inn.
