The Forester Ealing

Lovely pub! This really is a very nice, cosy pub with a good range of drinks and great food, the Thai food is incredible and I would recommend. A lovely beer garden and good for groups. Pop in if you’re in the area!! :) it also has a private room function that you can book which is great.

Disappointing Sunday Roast despite good reviews and nice photos of the outside! First time in this "charming inn" and really looking forward to it. But I was served ridiculously thin, tough and overcooked meat (paid extra for lamb) with small portions of vegetables. So, I complained to the charming waitress, Zoe, and, God forbid! she came back with a plateful of thick, deliciously juicy lamb and more vegetables: a real Sunday Roast! Thank you Zoe! I was right to complain but wouldn't recommend this pub for Sunday lunch. What about their Thai food on the regular menu?

The staff here are very friendly and welcoming. The room was a bit jaded, bathroom door wouldn't shut as it didn't fit. The bar area was great and had a good choice of drinks. The cooked breakfast was good quality but the service was extremely slow. The pub has a function room which you need to walk through to get to the accommodation. One night there was a function on and we found ourselves returning from a day out and having to walk through a birthday party function, and move some chairs just to get to the door leading to the pub's bedrooms. Stayed Friday and Saturday night. Could forgive a lot but the function room makes staying a lottery. We are unlikely to return and wouldn't recommend staying on a weekend for that reason.
