Defectors Weld in Hammersmith and Fulham

Took 15 minutes to get served by an apparently blind bartender! Overcharged for Camden hells! Got charged £7.60 when it says £7.15 on the menu! Daylight robbery!! Avoid, and very SAD!

Feel-good ambience, welcoming staff, nice food. A perfect ending to a busy day in London!

Joey - great bar tender - friendly and efficient - lights up the bar.

Joey behind the bar is an absolute delight, he's funny, urbane and charming. The Pub has a great atmosphere, both weekdays and weekends.

Delicious roast dinner and great service from Joey! A great local pub.

Lovely gastro pub! Steak was cooked perfectly and the home made chips were fluffy and crispy 😋 Yann was very friendly and efficient and made sure we had everything we wanted!

The event was very successful and the bar staff, especially ryan, were very helpful, thank you!

We had a great time there,.. food was great, service and atmosphere were great . We had amazing host Robert who found a table for a group of us and looked after us all the time!! We are definitely coming back soon .Higly recommend this pub :))

Matilde took great care of us today, we shared a roast and it was delicious, she was smiley very helpful and went above and beyond for us ! I love it

Fantastic service from Annelise and Joey!

Went there for a pint, stayed for the vibe. My friends and I wanted a quick bite to eat and a drink before we went to a show at the o2 and the atmosphere was amazing! We even came back after for the late night dJ. One of the bartenders, Yann, was particularly helpful and we’re sure to visit again!

Great pub right on the green, really decent beer, top service.

Came in the other day for drinks, immi was very helpful and a great server!

great pub, immi was a fanatstic bartender

Walked into this gaff some Thursday night looking to have a cheeky pint. Numpty doorman told me to jog on as I'd already gotten a bit barmy. Won't be returning.

We came yesterday for couple of drinks and ended up staying for food. Food is delicious and Matilde went above and beyond to serve us and really checked on us the whole time. We felt so welcome :)) Very helpful and attentive! Thank you

Yesterday great vibes in your Pub ! Matilda is a very good host and adviser, we had a nice dinner. Smile and kindness !

Mice running around the pub floor

A bit noisier, nice atmosphere and good food. I didn't choose the best beer...

Great pub with great selection beers and buzzy atmosphere. Thurs eve pre gig drinks and burger. Burger good but £18, but fries awful- overcooked and dry.

Quite busy but we found three comfortable empty stools at the end of the bar. Service was good but only one real ale, Young's. Dozens of keg beers to choose from. A very noisy party started in one room, blocking out any hope of conversation in that side of the bar. Toilets clean and tidy.

Probably the most upmarket pub in the neighborhood and the prices reflect that.

Really lovely experience. Menu was really interesting but still classic. Extensive drink list. Lively but not too crowded. Incredibly welcoming bartenders - very attentive and patient with visitors who don’t know pub culture.

Well located and decent vibe but mostly big corporate beers from Heineken, Diageo and InBev, c.10% independent craft unfortunately

This was a couple of years ago but one of the bartenders was not very nice towards underrepresented group - he treated me unfairly and disrespectfully in a number of occasions

I loved the layout but, the music was WAY to loud totally ruined the visit. Made my eye water.

Massively expensive and miserable staff not a great experience at all

Had an absolutely fantastic experience at this pub! The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. They went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. The highlight of the meal was definitely the roast dinner – it was hearty, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The roast potatoes were crispy, the meat was tender and the gravy was incredible. A perfect Sunday roast in a beautiful pub with great atmosphere. Highly recommend this spot for a great meal and exceptional service!

We recently celebrated a birthday at Defectors Weld and had an amazing time! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with a great buzz that made the evening even more special. The food was absolutely delicious—everything we ordered was cooked to perfection and full of flavor. The staff were fantastic—friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the night. It was the perfect place for a celebration, and we’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!

Lovely pub, the manager with a man bun is a-bit of a dickhead though.

Great food, friendly and welcoming staff. Really enjoyed our lunch with the family, staff were amazing with the children and very attentive. Food was delicious!

It was easy to find. Decent atmosphere but it was very busy and the service was challenging.

Good Food, Nice Atmosphere, Attentive staff. Good range of drinks.

Robert was the most amazing host, made me my Bf and dog feel so at home. Went out of his way to give us a good dog friendly table and came over with water for dog straight away and took our drink orders. Will come again just for this service !

Fantastic pub, really good staff. Booked a table last minute Robert sorted us right out with everything couldn’t ask for anymore for a Friday night beer and food will defo come again

Buena comida y un ambiente brillante. Partido de fútbol en un club cerca de esa noche haciendo un ambiente muy agradable. Menú de comida limitada, pero las opciones eran buenas y a pesar de estar ocupado el servicio era muy rápido. Tenía una muy buena gama de cervezas también.

We would usually go here on the weekend and they would have a DJ playing all the hip hop and R&B you want. Danced our arses off many time (Didn't have food so can't ccommecnt on that).

Food was so bloody tasty!!! Staff were really helpful with my dietary requirements. Lovely pub with great a atmosphere. 10/10

We stopped in for a drink before lunch and the staff were so lovely we ended up staying for lunch and several more drinks! The barman (James) was especially good at recommendations. Food was really nice, friends had DFC chicken sharer which seemed good value for money and the veggie gnocchi was went well with the drinks. Overall good friendly atmosphere and very calm and collected staff.

Cozy and casual atmosphere, friendly and hospitable staff, delicious food. Unfortunately the pie was no longer in stock, but the fish and chips were very tasty, the smash burger was TOP!

La comida era deliciosa, Zharnai tenía las mejores sugerencias y era el ambiente clave. El ambiente era genial volveré con mi mamá

Food looked and smelled great, was sad I'd only nipped in for a quick pint as planned to eat elsewhere. Great range of drinks and we'll kept by friendly, helpful staff. Well worth a pop in.

Visited on a busy Saturday just before Christmas, we were looking for food while waiting for our hotel room nearby to be ready. It was mobbed with football fans, but we were advised to give it 10 minutes and they'd all be off to the game. Sure enough, the place completely emptied and we got a cosy table by the fire. I ordered the Toad in the hole, my friend had the burger. Mine was a little dry but all perfectly edible. Enjoyed a couple of drinks too. Staff were very friendly and made us feel welcome.

La comida es bebida son comida típica de pub. Sam era un servidor sólido con grandes recomendaciones para Londres y Edimburgo. ¡Ella fue tan amable de dividir la cuenta de nuestro grupo!

Our server was Sam and she was excellent. Made sure allergies were addressed and made good recommendations. We had a larger group and they helped us find a bigger table.

Here visiting from the US. Our server Sam was amazing, she gave us great recommendations, was easy to talk to, and even split our check for our large party. Great experience, would come back

A pleasant pub where you can spend some time, for my taste, prices are excessive for the quality of the dishes, some excessively expensive.

great food and even better service from the lovely Sam, thank you!!

On arrival greeted with a friendly smile and hello. Our food was great, service fast and our waiter was extremely attentive. Amazing selection on tap too for the beer drinkers out there. Will be back again soon with my friends.

Gran servicio y buena comida. Gracias a Sam, Olivia y James por hacer de esta noche un gran comienzo para las celebraciones de cumpleaños 🥳🙏🏼🤩

Lovely open fire, friendly service. Great space for a group meal

Sam was fantastic! Service and food was excellent

Food was delicious, drinks were great, music was well curated. But above all, our server Sam was AMAZING. So caring and hospitable. Wonderful experience thanks to her.

food was so yummy and our server sam rocked our world! she was kind and helpful!

Great food and excellent staff! Sam was so friendly and kind to us.

My daughter and I had a great time. Last year and the year before we spent with family but because that was not possible for 2024 we decided at the last mintue to go to a pub. I had a frantic phoning around to find somewhere. Finding space at The Defectors Weld did disappoint. The food was a lot, worth the £75 per person. There wasn't too many people there if anything more guests would have made an even better atmosphere, but it was still great. Thank you so much. Sharon Staples

Stopped in for a drink on Christmas day, very welcoming and great service, with a smile! Will return

Sam, Molly, and Rob are the best bartenders ever! So nice and coming back ASAP to see them!

Nice pub on the Green. Does what it says on the tin. Soldered me perfectly to my pint

Myself and my friend hired the function room upstairs for our joint birthday party. The room was absolutely perfect and the barman, Dorian, was fantastic. He and the team were super helpful and made sure we had the best evening. Thank you Defector’s!

Went for their Christmas meal with colleagues and very happy with the food and service. Thanks a lot.

Recently had our staff Christmas Party at Defectors Weld. They accommodated our request for the private bar upstairs, we had the whole room which was festively decorated including Christmas Tree :) The food was great and service was friendly and efficient. Thank you guys for a great team Christmas Party. Would definitely recommend and would not hesitate to book again for future events! Special thanks to Robert for looking after us all!

Reservamos una mesa para 9 hace un número de semanas , al llegar nos pusieron sobre una mesa para 6 , claramente tenían allí reservas de Navidad y no nos habían dejado espacio , después de hablar con el gerente era evidente que no había dónde reubicarnos , extremadamente decepcionante ya que habíamos viajado de todas partes para reunirnos , no tuvimos más remedio que irnos pero ponernos sobre una mesa que claramente no era lo suficientemente grande era mala gestión y a no podía importar menos actitud

Absolutely ridiculous situation at the door. This used to be our local pub but not anymore . The two guys working at the door are extremely rude Never gonna step my foot in there not when I am treated like this ! AVOID and actually go to a friendlier proper pub ( last time I was in the garden the one bouncer actually came to tell someone to turn their hut around !) I mean .. how posh do you thing your place is ??

Yup, only in for a couple of hours and didn't eat but the staff were really effective and happy which made for a good atmosphere.

Great selection of beers and nice atmosphere

I came here on 4th December with my work colleagues for our Christmas lunch. Everyone was impressed with the atmosphere, great decor and great music and Christmas crackers were also provided! The food was amazing, we all cleaned our plates and service was excellent. There were 16 of us and everything went smoothly. There were 2 people with dietary requirements and these were catered for well. Its always good to find a nice place nearby so I'm sure we'll be coming here again. Thank you Defectors Weld.

One of the few places near White City that feels like a proper pub.

Good selection of beers and lagers and food

Didn't eat there so can't comment. Very welcoming. Loads of space but still feels cozy. Lovely outside sitting area too. Would definitely recommend!

Great pub, with a great name and a cozy but lively vibe. Perfect for catching up with friends over drinks or over a quick bite.

Went in for a pint, had a nice sit-down.

Poor service,miserable waitress,table not big enough for 3 people and 16.50 for a small burger and a portion of oven ready fries was a rip off.really wasn't what I was expecting and was really disappointed should have gone to McDonald's it's better value.

Pub in zona Sheperd Bush. Pub molto carino, siamo andati un gruppo di amici, abbiamo mangiato molto bene e prezzi nella media.

Dejar bebidas para un amigo. El personal es amable, la música es genial y hay una chimenea! Además la comida es muy sabrosa. . . . esperando con ansias la próxima visita : - )

We went to this pub and we were pleasantly surprised by the prices of the beers, which were quite affordable. So we stayed for several tours. Very friendly bar, with an interesting musical atmosphere. The staff was also very attentive.

We had the best time in the private room at the defectors weld, our bartender was incredible

Perfectly decent place to have a few drinks. Service was pretty rapid even at busy times, pleasant vibe, quite comfortable.

Good god. The wait for food here was mental. Tortoise speed 🐢 food was alright - but my expectations were sky high after an epically long wait pre-match, and then shattered by slightly fishy fish. Beer was good as was the bar. Food was utter chaos.

Despite being a busy evening when we visited the staff were friendly and great at their job. This venue is very reasonably priced

great atmosphere. beautiful pub

Robert Vidmar cuidó maravillosamente de 28 visitantes canadienses, que cayeron inesperadamente. Muy profesional, cortés y cortesía completa extendida. Esto ocurrió en tres ocasiones, durante nuestro viaje de 10 días a Londres Inglaterra desde Londres Ontario Canadá. Gracias a usted y a su personal bien capacitado. . . . higginsgr@bmts.com

Sam was great and the beer selection is decent

Such a great place. Came here twice while staying in Shepherd's Bush. Our server was fantastic and we loved this place. Highly recommended!

We tried a fish dish to share between 2 for £25. Very good atmosphere, recently renovated with a beautiful interior patio and spectacular smoking fireplace. Very warm.

Classic British pub with a cool name.

Gran servicio al cliente por Zharnai e Immi que eran tan fantásticos, atentos y amables. Las alas en el menú son las mejores alas que he tenido en mucho tiempo! por favor mantenga eso en el menú, muy subestimado y delicioso. Gracias

Went for a Sunday roast catch up with my family. Great food, attentive friendly staff and reasonably priced. An added bonus, no TV. We had great fun relaxing, chatting and eating.

The best Guinness I had in London

Really nice pub with some charming and cosy vibes. The music gets turned up very loud however which gets overwhelming and makes conversations difficult.

This is a good one. Cool vibes, decent food and great service. You'll like it! Particularly liked the big cat / banana / musician themed wall art.

Very comfortable seating area indoors and outdoor area is cool 😎

All good except the fact they pulled the Guinness in one go without letting it settle first! Don’t know why but… hopefully will sort this out. Lovely outdoor area at the back.

I recently visited Defectors Weld and loved the lively atmosphere, as well as the unique outdoor courtyard with its glass roof and vintage lighting. I've added it to my barguide.london site too!

Good food, excellent drinks and really great service. In our case, we were attended by Jaime Barros, I recommend letting him guide you.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting The Defector's Weld, and I must say it exceeded my expectations. The pub’s eclectic decor and welcoming vibe make it a great spot for both a lively evening or a quiet afternoon pint. The spacious layout with comfy seating and quirky artwork adds a cool, laid-back charm. Thanks to Jamie’s warm hospitality, I’ll definitely be back for another visit soon!

This restaurant is a great spot to relax and enjoy a variety of drinks, from cocktails to wine, in a warm and inviting atmosphere. The service was exceptional, particularly thanks to our attentive waiter, Jaime, who made the experience memorable with his friendliness and excellent recommendations. Highly recommended for both the drinks and service.

Good place!! The food, service and atmosphere is excellent. I would like to highlight the service of Jaime, who made us feel very good and comfortable. Without a doubt we will come back.

Lovely place to chill out in shepherds bush. Zharnai makes an excellent Bloody Mary, nice and spicy, perfect to start your day after a night out. Cheers

Great place to go for drinks and grab a bite. Jaime’s service was amazing!
