6/24/2022 this is now The Duke of Battersea, a restaurant by the Brewdog Brewery.
I got a buffalo chicken sandwich, called a "burger" on the menu which was worrisome.
It was stellar. Extremely good. Felt like a combination of buffalo and Nashville hot. Crispy, medium hot, and they nailed the blue cheese.
Nice seating inside and out, good selection of Brewdog beer on tap.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Steavi S.Alexandria, United States069251 Jan 2020
Was looking for a spot for dinner and stumbled upon this place. The menu had a good variety of food but I'd call it bar food rather than restaurant food. Everything was good overall, and they have AMAZING mashed potatoes!

OK so here's what happened. I was working at a clients locally and got stuck till late sorting his PC out so I decided, on the way home, to try this place (no Weatherspoon's in the area) and tonight I had the best burger I have ever had in my life. This is a cool place.
Nice relaxed décor n surrounding, music not to load, friendly, helpful staff who look like they actually want you to come back, and I had the burger to die for. Just a burger, one called a Poke Supreme. and Mex type burger cooked to perfection and full of the tastier ingredients
This is one of the few places I've reviewed where I am planning to go back within a week.
Its that good.
Tons of cool whacky well served beer too
Give it a go you have nothing to lose you wont be disappointed.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Liborio M.San Jose, United States3811 Dec 2019
The food is fresh and delicious. The staff is very friendly and they go above and beyond to make you feel at home. I wish I lived near my by so I could come here every night to at least to have a beer and chat. I highly recommend this place!

Great beer, not great food. Had the Korean Santean burger - very small, very dry & no flavor.

Years have passed between my first visit to the Westbridge Draft House and my most recent visit.
We last stopped in to celebrate our first anniversary. Yes, we chose a fancy pub for our anniversary meal. This place is pretty much our favorite spot to eat in London and we were excited to have a special meal there! The food remains beautiful. The service remains great.
On the occasion of our last visit I had tweeted about wanting to head over there, but had to wait for the rain to stop. The pub tweeted back "we'll have a table waiting!" and I presumed they meant that in a way of "you're always welcome here" but when we arrived they actually had reserved us a table under my name! Just going the little extra makes so much difference. I love this place.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 010 Apr 2011Previous reviewI first reviewed The Draft House in September and since it's become a favorite place for a weekend drink and a meal.
The steaks are to die for, the onion rings still stand out, and the ever-changing seasonal menus are always a fun surprise! The beers are also ever-changing with exciting options being added all the time. I just love it here!
My only down-side is that eating in the restaurant bit on a Friday night, while the service was very good (as usual) and the food totally as expected, was not as nice as a Saturday or Sunday. The after-work drinks crowd lingers for a looooong time and the music isn't as nice either. Still, our one Friday night trip wasn't bad. Just wasn't as nice as usual.
I love the Draft House and have brought friends, mothers, and had my birthday there! GO!30 Sept 2010Previous reviewAwesome land of 1/3 pints and sampler platters of draft beers. Deliciously wonderful food. The menu is ever-changing, but if they have it at the moment, go for the chocolate pot for dessert. And the onion rings. It's all wonderful. nom nom nom nom nom.
Fabulous music, friendly staff, and quirky decor. It's an all-around winner! - Leighton S.London, United Kingdom4850420 Nov 2016
Quite a large place, with ample table seating, high-top tables, a back room. It almost feels more like a restaurant than a bar. The beer selection is decent: about a dozen kegs, three or so casks, and north of 50 bottles. Alright prices. Draft beers are available in thirds, which is nice. The food was, in our experience, hit and miss. The ribs, chicken wings and sweet potato fries were good, while the Mexican salad (iceberg lettuce, way too much low-end cheese, a few tomatoes, avocado, a dash of chili dressing) was lackluster. Friendly and attentive service; although, it is worth stating, we were the first through the door on a Sunday at opening time so there wasn't much to keep the staff busy. Overall, a good spot, and if I lived nearby I would come here with some frequency. But a destination bar it is not.

150-200 different beers. That's all you need to know. A selection of beers that must comfortably put it in London's top 1% of bars for sheer choice and instantly qualifying it for 5 star status.
The bar's other charms thus come as pleasant bonuses: The friendly staff, who are all-too-eager to let you try any number of the many beers on tap; the comfy and slightly quirky interior; the decent-looking food (Laura Kate S's and Joy C's endorsements mean I'll be trying it next chance I get), and the tables outside overlooking Battersea Bridge road.
Only downside? It's on my commute home! Not stopping off for a swift pint or three now that I know what lurks within could prove difficult..Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0 - Ben C.London, United Kingdom24378 Nov 2011
Goose Island Matilda + hog roast + bonfire night = 5 stars
Seriously good selection of beers: there were a few favourites like Kernel in there, but the selection of good American beers was really impressive. Just get some Westmalle and De Praal in there and I won't need to go anywhere else!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Christoph N.London, United Kingdom23121 Aug 2013
I came here with a friend last night. We both haven't been here for ages. They beer selection is outstanding, including some Bavarian classics. They even have the right glasses for the beer. Something I appreciate having grown up in Bavaria. We ordered some food as well. My friend opted for burger and I for mac cheese. The pasta dish is growing in popularity on this side of the pond. Having said that their version is not as good as you usually get in the states. I prefer a stronger cheese, especially if it is served as a main. Staff at the bar is super friendly and atmosphere very homely. A good place to hang out and have some food if you get hungry. A big plus is their outside space. We enjoyed a late summer evening in their backyard.
