The Princess Victoria

Uncomplicated dishes well executed on the whole. Great wine list. Great value with the 50% off deal. Best option in our neighborhood. I thoroughly recommend it

Brilliant food, great choice of beers, wines and spirits (especially gin), great surroundings, great service. Absolutely love the place and take any opportunity to go back.

Very friendly staff. Food was very delicious. Service was slightly slow because of the quiz going on in the main bar but staff dealt with it well

The Princess Victoria was fantastic as usual - lovely food and wine and great service. Love the vegan options too. Will be back very soon.

Went to the Sunday night quiz and had a great time. Food was good too. Great atmosphere we will go to this pub again soon

The Princess Victoria is a real gem. A great choice of drinks, particularly gins. And we had a very tasty meal with excellent friendly service – will definitely return!

So, a couple of things went wrong - one main course was late and we were brought a more expensive bottle of wine (which we didn't pick up on until it appeared on the bill). BUT the way it was all handled by the team was brilliant! We had a great evening and, of course, we'll be back.

Nicely air-conditioned inside - toilets were like a sauna though. Good food, service was fine. Nice little area outside the front, but I was too hot to sit outside.

The service was great the whole time we were there, we had the roasts and the portions were generous but the taste was delicious and a superb choice of drinks.

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience. Our original reason for going to the Princess Victoria is to follow Anthony Bourdain's stops shown on "Parts Unknown". The scotch eggs, chips and Guinness did not disappoint. The World Cup match involving England was an unexpected bonus as I made a reservation in advance of any knowledge of quarterfinal outcomes. The perfect atmosphere for enjoying a meal and watching the football match.

Very quiet for a Saturday evening and so lacking in atmosphere. The food wasn’t anything special and I had to return my undercooked (baked) salmon. After visiting this pub for many years, we have no desire to rush back.

Always great food, specially pizzas!!! Gentle service! Sometimes a bit slow. Overall great !!! Love it!!! It is my favorite pub in London and specially in west London

Extremely friendly staff - very helpful and food is good. Has improved enormously since the take-over and has embraced all during the World Cup run of matches - the hard working staff during these really busy times has been quite incredible and not a cross word!!

Great food. Excellent service. I was impressed with their selection of drinks, especially the variety of gin they have on sale. Very helpful staff and service with a smile. Love this place!

Reserved a table through the website and received a pop-up notification telling me to call if I wanted to reserve an outside table, so I called and did that. Once at the pub, I ended up asking the manager (without knowing he was the manager) if we did get the outside table reserved, to which he replied in a quite rude way saying that outside tables can't be reserved. We then went outside and chose a random empty table, but another waiter, Ben, came to us and asked if it was me he talked to on the phone. I said yes and he proceeded to show us our table which had a reservation plaque with our time slot on it. He was very kind throughout the whole evening, very fun and apologetic. Altogether, food was very good (although one pizza was a bit burnt – but it also came quite late) and, manager aside, service was very good.

Excellent service however the food (Sunday roast) is very average since it’s reopened. Would recommend for a drink (as it has a great selection of gins) but not overly enamoured by the food.

Great gin selection! Good attentive service, nice atmosphere, a little outside the city but worth the ride, great food - had the dips and flat bread appetizer, duck and a pizza. I was looking forward the whitebait appetizer from bourdains show but not on the menu :(

A pub with a touch of romance & class. really inventive menu & great wine list. Give yourself time to try a few new drinks & soak up the elegance. Be aware the football is being shown on screens, not in the dining room but immediately next to it.

Ben, our waiter, was really good - friendly and helpful. Food was delicious and they even gave a free pint to my dad for Father’s Day!

Have not been since the refurbishment and so thought i'd give it a go again. Overall, It was Good. good Food, good ambiance, attentive staff although it's a bit on the pricey side.

Very friendly , good draught beer, good honest food, reasonable wine list , relaxed atmosphere and dog friendly. Definitely would go back again. Great outside area in the summer. Great spot.

Food was delicious but service was slow. 2 out of 3 desserts forgotten about, and wrong drinks provided than the ones ordered. Missing items on dinner in comparison to menu.

We love the Princess V. Great food, good service, drink prices a little on the heavy side though. Overall great experience, and perfect for Sunday lunch.

Great steak, cooked exactly as requested. Asparagus starter was also delicious as were the croquettes. The burger was a complete let down, woefully over cooked. Shame.

Lovely pub, great friendly staff and the roast was amazing, massive generous portions especially the meat. Will definitely go back there! Managed to get a table last minute, but actually sitting outside of the main dining area was a lot more chilled :)

I went to the Princess Victoria for the third year running last Saturday before attending a football match at QPR. Not far from Shepherd Bush green, this gastro pub offers excellent value for money. This is my favourite place in the area to have drinks and a meal with friends in a very relaxed atmosphere. Great choice of dishes (traditional pub fares & specials) and drinks on the menu. The staff are very friendly and efficient. Highly recommended!

The service was on the slow side and the food arrived cold. However the pub is beautiful, very clean and the roast was quite tasty.

Found staff to be very friendly, helpful and a great place if you have children, food is very good,portions good size some interesting variations of a classic dish I’ve tried 2 out of the 3 tasty, have recommended to friends

lovely food and wine, just rather cold and there was a very noisy group in the dining room behind us but not much you can do about that. will be back, thank you

Friendly service. Delicious food and big portions for Sunday lunch. Sunny courtyard garden at the back. Amazing treacle tart. Good choice of wines and champagnes.

Gorgeous pub and garden. Great food. Good drinks. Delightful staff. Had a wonderful evening here with friends and would recommend highly. Thank you very much!

Very, very nice roast. Excellent service, with an impressive interior. Drinks a bit pricey but was to be expected for such a nice pub. Will be back.

It was nice venue with beautiful inside interior and also outside tables. Perfect for sunny weekend lunch and dinner. It’s too far from nearest tube station. Sunday roast was definitely must. I am not sure the dessert. The price was bit too expensive for the location. Two main meals with two beers and one dessert was £49.

The food was excellent!!!! The service was quick! The portions were big and the atmosphere was perfect for a Sunday Roast! Will defiantly coming back for some more of that good vibes

We just moved to the neighbourhood and wanted to give it a try... the Noise level not to my liking (Really Loud) The food.. I am not one to even write a review buuut... bad... plain and simple... I ordered an aubergine tagine... it was tinned tomato and tined chickpeas not an aubergine in sight and some olives. oh, and oddly topped with salad leaves! . none of us finished our meal... Tagine cooked and spiced a long time... come on.. with Uxbrige road you cant do that...

Food delicious - perfectly cooked steak, crispy calamari - and the menu was appealing. Service attentive. Decor properly pub-like in a good way. Didn’t have pizza but other peoples’ looked good and they’re great value.

Friendly, casually professional. Lovely food. A feel good experience. Has a cool but unpretentious air where you feel very welcome and comfortable and staff are attentive but friendly. Would recommend

Great pub and restaurant, lovely old building, good choice of drinks and food, friendly staff.

Nice local Pub , we were looking for a traditional place to have a genuine sunday roast as tourists in town. We found it. Tasty and great portions.

Very good food and great atmosphere. Nice traditional pub with modern menu. Sunday lunch was excellent and good sized portions. we will definitely go again

Good food on the whole- we went for the roasts and whilst the chicken was excellent the beef was a bit tough and the Yorkshire pudding a bit dry. Good service and ambience though.

Inattentive service, worse food eg. just two roast potatoes from the freezer which were not crispy, a cold tiny dollop of lumpy bread sauce, what bad pub roasts were like 20 years ago

The service, the staff and the food was amazing. We ordered two Sunday roasts and we were delighted about how big the portion was. The meat was really tasty, as well as the starters. In fact, we were surprised about the Calamari with Alioli, they were incredibly fresh and tasty! We enjoyed every single thing and we will repeat for sure!

Had a great time doing the quiz. The quizmaster is a great bloke and you can get food, booze and everything else to make for a great evening.

One of the best Sunday roasts I've had- and I've had a few. The staff were brilliant too. The place was packed but the high ceilings and skylights kept the atmosphere tranquil.

Food was incredibly so-so, certainly of a lower standard than one has come to expect from a pub that looks as though it takes itself pretty seriously. Also, the food came to table so quickly it was obvious it had been heated up rather than cooked on site. The staff were friendly but inept. Won’t be going back to eat, just for a drink as the pub side of the operation is nice.

Sorry but this is not as good as it used to be. Maybe new management? Dry fish, chips chewy and not hot, beef tough. Disappointing.

Staff were rude. I normally don’t mind dining alone but here it was not a great experience. The waitress at the end taking my payment tisked at me when I put my pin code in - like I was a child? Will not be returning, even though I really enjoyed the food.

Totally recommend for Sunday lunch. Great atmosphere and the food was excellent. Probably recommend the roast beef over the Pork Belly (which was really quite rich) and according to my wife, the Nut Roast was one of the best she has had. And desserts were delicious. Family friendly.

Service was great. Beautiful pub. Roast dinner was barely warm on cold plates although good taste. Nice touch with free prosecco for mums. Son had burger but unfortunately he was throwing up after lunch! Not sure what caused that!
