About the Pub
At the heart of the historic Acton Town Centre, this welcoming venue has three bars of real character ; an atmospheric front bar - with a list of landlords dating back to 1759 - leads through to a heritage bar with exposed original features, and a cavernous and stylish back room which serves as the bar and the Dragonfly brewery. Dragonfly's keg beers are served as changing seasonal ales, and usually two real ciders.
The dark atmospheric front bar, which is now a seating area, leads through a further seating area, dating to 1539, to a cavernous room at the back, which serves as the bar and brewery. The back of the room is dominated with an impressive array of vast copper and chrome brewing vessels (sadly currently unused for cask beer), whilst the large square bar in the centre of the room is adorned by two art nouveau statues. The north wall is covered by a Rousseau style leafy mural. The pub is Grade II listed.
