Duchess Battersea in Wandsworth

Stayed in the new accommodation. Alan was great. Really nice guy. Nowhere else in London you’d get this quality of room and breakfast included for such a great price. Really impressed. We normally stay in the main hotel in Battersea (art’otel) but they stupidly wanted £700 a night for a room.

Superb location & the food was spot on. Alan & his staff were so friendly,definitely go back,when visiting London again.

Me: searches ‘pubs in the local area’ and finds this one with a statement ‘good for watching sports’ Me: turns up and asks door security “is the pub showing the football?” DS: “yes” Me: walks in and with no football on, asks bar staff “are you showing the football?” BS: look at each other and shrug Me: “can you check?’ BS: look at each other and eventually check a clipboard, returning to tell me they “don’t know” Me: “can you change the channel?” BS: “no, only the manager can do that” Me: “can you go and get the manager?” BS: “we don’t know where he is” and then walk off Me: walks out mentally composing a review

We had a fantastic meal and experience at the Duchess Belle. In fact, we came back for a second time in a week. Archie was the barman and he was super helpful and more than friendly. This is a must stop in the Battersea area. Seems like the management really wants you to have an outstanding experience. And we did!

Superb Hosts - lovely rooms. Clean and very accommodating. Enjoyed staying and was easily able to access the Royal Albert Hall via Bus. Would recommend and stay here again.

wonderful place for drinks and chat (very pretty) - and a shoutout to rod for being the most fun ever- he takes care of his locals :)

Had a lovely visit to the duchess belle in Battersea on Monday, very close to the station so popped in for lunch before shopping. Service by Rod was so lovely that we decided to stop in again on the way home for a quick post shopping pint! Would recommend!

Ausgezeichnetes Pub, sehr gute Küche, oft Preisschnäppchen (z.B. Zu zweit essen, nur einmal bezahlen! Fragen Sie nach Patricia!), sehr gut erreichbar, direkt vis-a-vis von U-Bahnhaltestelle Battersea Power Station.

After visiting Dutchess for the first time I’m definitely coming back!! Rod was consistently making me and my friends laugh and the drink all were always great will definitely be coming back and have told all my friends about it!! Good job rod

I’m a regular at Duchess and everytime I come, Rod never fails to make my night! His service and hospitality is amazing, he always brings a smile to my face and my friends have started coming here regularly too. Thank you so much for being you!

Just leaving a little review about our experience today, it was a lovely little pub with great staff but one especially was a girl called Chloe, she was wonderful and so nice as we come for mums 50th birthday so Thankyou Chloe

Great warm and friendly pub.. lots of specials including 2 for 1 cocktail jugs. Easy location.. excellent service from the lovely Patricia..

Wow! What a surprise. The building sates back to 1800's bit the external view suggested that there was something different going on here ! All very modern inside, with flower walls and ceilings amidst glass chandeliers! It's a real eclectic mix. Welcoming, efficient, and friendly staff. Not a huge menu but it is very popular. I only stayed for a drink as had eaten before, but I had to stop in here on the way from the new Power Station site, on way to tube.

We wanted a proper pub and that's what we found. Warm welcome, good service, amazing decor and really good loos. Our food was ok, could have been hotter, it seemed like it had been hanging about waiting to be brought to the table.

What a beautiful pub with a great location, popped in to have some breakfast and was served by Chloe who was very polite and professional and made the experience very enjoyable nothing was too much bother, the food was delicious and I will be back. Good staff nice environment lovely location

I'm not usually one to complain or write bad reviews, but this place deserves special mention for what was almost definitely the worst pub/restaurant experience of my life thus far.Firstly, after the 6 of us were sat down upstairs, it took over 25 mins for a server to ask us for any drinks, with tables around us that had arrive later being served before us, In the end we had to go downstairs to ask for someone to come up, they eventually did. Insult was added to injury when we saw the table next to us had 8 people on it , a clear breach of rules and a bit annoying giving we had let down some of our friends who wanted to come.We ordered 3 bottles of prosecco as they were half price as well as our food. Another 30 mins then passed, I am aware pubs have just reopened and it is busy, but to sit in what is a pub and wait over 45 mins to get a drink is ridiculous. I then asked a nearby server (small middle aged woman) if she could look into where our drinks were as we had been waiting over 45 mins and if they had forgotten the order, she then proceeded to laugh at the prospect we had waited that long, patronised me about it and laughed in my face, at one point even tapping me on the shoulder laughing saying "Oh . Come on" . I then asked if she could bring her manager up as tbh i was pretty seething, needless to say the manager never came.The drinks were then eventually brought up and we got on with our night, unfortunately matters only got worse when the food was brought out.(Now 1hr 30 since we entered the pub).I have attached photos ....I understand it is a pub so i don't expect Michelin star cooking but I expect a lot better than what I received. Having paid 18 pound for the Philly Cheese Steak I expect it to at least be edible. My friend ordered a burger and got an equally distasteful meal. All of the other meals were equally poor and lukewarm, only have photos of a couple.I cannot stress to you how bad it was, I am by no means a food snob i will eat at roadside cafes , burger vans etc and enjoy it, it takes a lot for something to be inedible for me, but please never eat here. For the price you pay around 20 per main, you can do a lot better at Mc Donalds and get your food 10x quicker

Shocking experience all round. Had to wait 30 minutes just to get served and we had to call them over for that service. A bottle of Prosseco took 45 minutes to arrive and when it did, the glasses didn’t. Had to wait another 15 minutes for the rest of the drinks to arrive. Food arrived over 90 minutes after we ordered and was shocking to say the least, I expect they are served better food in Wandsworth prison! (Images of food on reviews are not accurate to the food they are serving now)Sent a meal back as it wasn’t edible and was cold, didn’t receive the replacement meal until when we were walking out the door. Asked one of the servers for an update regarding our food and drinks, only for her to say we haven’t been waiting x amount of time and told us to be patient, condescendingly tapped my friend on the shoulder, laugh and walked off. Asked to speak to the manager but they never arrived. Avoid at all costs, would recommend eating beans on toast off the floor in the middle of the high street instead.

Had a very relaxed lunch today with my parents and Albie (the dog). Fish and chips, Brockwurst and Steak Ale Pie with mash. Delicious. Perfectly chillaxing afternoon with no pushy staff. Will definitely be back. (Albie says he is coming too).

Terminé visitando este pub debido a una fuerte lluvia. Vivo localmente pero no he estado en un pub antes. Lleno de constructores agresivos que trabajan en la central eléctrica de Battersea enfrente. Van por ahí tratando de iniciar peleas con gente que no conocen y parecen conocer al personal que trabaja en su lugar, así que lo ven como "su pub". Uno de ellos se enfrentó a un hombre que estaba sentado con su novia, la camarera tenía que ponerse en el medio y estaban justo al lado de la mesa en la que yo estaba sentado. Soy mujer y me sentí muy insegura. Parece que no hay administración ni seguridad en este pub. Además, no hay medidas de Covid 19 en vigor. Sin distanciamiento social, gente toda congregada alrededor de barra, mesas sucias, enferma en el baño. Terrible lugar, si quieres el virus de la corona o un ojo morado, visita este "establecimiento", de lo contrario te recomiendo que lo evites, hay pubs mucho mejores en Battersea.

I work on Battersea Power Station. St David's day was on Sunday but gave the staff a recipe to be cooked on a Monday. It was Cawl Cenin and it was done to perfection. It was orgasmic. Chef is Brazilian but when a cawl is cooked to perfection you have a warm.feeling inside for a long time after. It ticked all the boxes.

Reservé una mesa aquí con más de 1 semana de anticipación. Mis padres estaban conduciendo especialmente desde Brighton ya que este lugar solía ser tan bueno. Cuando entramos, el personal no se dio cuenta de mi reserva (aunque había llamado 30 minutos antes para decir que llegaríamos 15 minutos tarde debido al mal tráfico). No hay mesa puesta y una actitud despreocupada.Todos pedimos la cena asada (3 x carne de res y 1 x cordero). ¡La carne estaba tan incinerada cuando salió que ni siquiera se notaba la diferencia entre la carne! ¡Las papas estaban demasiado cocidas en aceite, pensamos que íbamos a romper un diente! Vegetales un montón de papilla - ¡comida totalmente no comestible!¡Se quejó al camarero que dijo que le devolvería dos comidas! ? ¡Ninguno de nosotros había tocado la comida! Le dije a la señora que necesita recuperar al viejo chef, ella dijo que no iba a suceder allí y luego nos dijo que no fueran tan groseros. ¡Parecía borracha o loca! !¡Ojalá hubiera tomado una foto para mostrar lo mala que era esta comida! ! No vayas aquí: ¡este lugar estará cerrado dentro de unos meses una vez que todo esté abierto por la central eléctrica y todos sus clientes anteriores sepan que no deben ir! Evitar a toda costa.¡Tan decepcionante como solía ser una verdadera joya! ¡Ojalá pudiera eliminar mi comentario anterior! !

Organicé la fiesta de gallina de mi amigo en la hermosa sala privada floral con balcón adjunto con vistas a Battersea.Todo el personal fue muy útil para organizar el día y permitir el uso de la sala para talleres de perfume y juegos. La comida y las bebidas eran geniales y todo a un precio muy razonable.¡Definitivamente recomendaría este lugar para contratar y volveremos!

Me encontré en The Duchess Belle con mi esposa mientras me hospedaba en un hotel cercano. Estábamos buscando un buen almuerzo para el domingo después de pasar la mañana viajando.No nos decepcionó, el lugar ha sido decorado de manera elegante con un estilo moderno alrededor de la decoración tradicional de un pub inglés.Hay televisores colocados en la pared sintonizados con el deporte, un árbol interior y una pared llena de flores.Teníamos un delicioso sándwich de pescado y BLT, ambos con papas fritas en un pan de granero encantador.La comida era muy buena comida de pub no puedo quejarme y lo recomendaría.

Super chicken lollipops, great service and so so clean. Nicely decorated and set up super. Great for an afternoon of sport etc without the noise etc

Great newly refurbished pub catering for everyone. Went here for an ArtNight event - lovely airy room upstairs, fun evening painting. Would definitely recommend! Uninterrupted views of Battersea Power Station. Beautiful outside area. A hidden gem!

Great venue to watch the sports, Esp the champions league/football...Good selection of beers on tap.Would definitely go/come again to watch the sports and a pint...On a negative......, the food is very expensive for what it was, hardly worth the money. My cheeseburger was around the £13 mark, and just a pattie, tiny bit of salad, and that was about it. My mate had a hot dog around the £9 mark & the bun was frozen/microwave defrosted, and overpriced even though German sausages apparently....They need to improve the food offer/standard also unfortunately there were only two staff working that night, the bar was very busy so there was a long wait for drinks, you’d think they'd have extra staff on re big sports event.... Also a couple of people not drinking anything standing by the door watching the game, so perhaps should have security of some sort the freeloaders from coming in...

First time here and what great burgers. These were two of the best cooked burgers I have had in a long time. The Chef is really on their game.

We had the buffalo wings and halloumi lollipops to start which were both very generous portions, followed by the steak pie and the juicy jane burger. We were sufficiently full to not need pudding. The pub itself has a beautiful interior and there are lots of good quality tv screens for watching sport

After looking at the website we booked for a roast with all the trimmings, we turned up and the place was empty if not pretty. The pub said on its website that it sold craft ale and beer...the selection was sma. The menu description for the roast was fabricated and when eating it... underwhelming. Apart from the pretty interior...food, drink and service was poor. I'd give it a miss and try the Latchmere or the lighthouse if in Battersea.

To set the scene – it’s a Sunday, raining cats and dogs, and the desire for a hearty and wholesome Sunday roast was immense. My friend and I opted for this pub as it was just down the road, and their website looked nice. I had called ahead of us walking over, and I stated clearly: “A friend and I would like a Sunday Roast, would that be possible for you?”, someone replied “yes” and I tried to ask “and do you have roasts left?”, but they hung up. I assured my friend that they probably did have roasts left, because when I said I wanted a roast, they didn’t say that they were out of any roasts.

Pedí la hamburguesa crujiente de mantequilla de maní que también se suponía que contenía gelatina de zarza

¿Cómo me he perdido este lugar durante los últimos 30 años. Tuvo un gran cambio de imagen y las luces me atrajeron. Reservé una mesa para 4 y la saqué antes. Muy popular (siempre es una buena señal) agradable combinación de clientela, increíblemente complaciente personal (gracias, Theo y Sheldon por hacer que nuestro regalo de Navidad sea tan memorable), la comida es un corte por encima de su comida normal de bar.

Fui aquí el sábado, tal vez el peor pub en el que he estado desde que nací en 1982. Mi amigo al llegar lo describió a la perfección: "Lawrence Llewelyn - Bowen recreando el Titanic, ¡y luego tienes a Dom de Cowboy Buiders que dice" vamos chicos, tenemos que jugar un poco de fútbol aquí "!

Me quedé completamente decepcionado con esta visita. Mis padres estaban de visita, así que hice una investigación exhaustiva para encontrar un lugar agradable para comer antes de la Exhibición de Fuegos Artificiales de Battersea y encontré el sitio web de Duchess Belle y miré el menú y se veía fabuloso, chips cortados a mano, pescado maltratado de cerveza hoegarden, etc., y cuando llegamos se hizo la espera de 20 minutos para nuestra reserva que llegamos a tiempo para. Entonces el menú ha cambiado y era comida normal de bar. Como no teníamos tiempo ni conocíamos el área lo suficientemente bien como para ir a otro lugar, decidimos comer allí. Cuando llegaron las hamburguesas estaban completamente incineradas y tenían un sabor terrible. Nos ofrecieron otro que estaba bien, pero no tuvimos tiempo y luego lo reembolsamos de la cuenta pero aún así nos hizo pagar por las bebidas. Terminamos su rápida visita a Londres para ver a su hija sin comida.

Came here for the first time for the midweek football. Nice little place. Living close I’ll be coming back regularly. Yet to try food, but a good range of beers and spirits.

Came for a Sunday roast and to watch the football and F1.

Conducido pasado tantas veces y vimos el cartel de "7 asados del domingo" Sonaba genial. . . . Sentamos en jardín. montado . . . Tenía el asado de cerdo, que era preciosa y una ensalada césar de pollo y bacon también genial. . . . Menú bueno, con mucha variedad. . precios muy buenos. . . El personal era encantador. . . . esperamos la próxima visita. . .

Franchement ce pub est typique, très sympa et on y mange vraiment bien.

Celebramos nuestro compromiso y fiesta de cumpleaños conjunta en la sala de eventos con un gran balcón con vistas al desarrollo Battersea Power Station (excelentes vistas). Nada era demasiado problema para Yasin y su increíble personal. La comida era abundante y deliciosa, y todos nos lo pasamos de maravilla - altamente recomendado

I came here as it was close to where i stayed..... The food was very nice... The staff was very helpful as i asked them about the direction around that area....

We had been visiting the Battersea Dogs & Cats Home nearby so popped in for Sunday lunch. I had roast chicken with a pint of craft cider. Cider was lovely, couldn’t remember the name of it but was a flat cider, in that it wasn’t gassy. The food was served quickly, was plentiful, warm and very tasty. I’d recommend visiting this pub if you’re in the area.

The Duchess is a lovely traditional pub , Myself and two colleaques went for lunch on a Friday and I had the best fish finger sandwich ever. Will definately be going back.

We visited the Duchess on dec. 21st. It it a lovingly maintained old pub with all the original trimmings. Not large but simply beautiful. We didn’t eat but we will go back.

Para nuestro segundo evento mensual volvimos a la duquesa con un número de huéspedes y Yassin y su personal superado en sí alojamiento, servicio y calidad de comida y local. Muy amablemente me por todo el pub a nuestro equipo para la noche y relajado en una fantástica cena de 3 platos para nuestro 55 personas, incluido un sublime Cena de Navidad, comida gigante carne asada y todos los adornos y algunos entrantes y postres. hermosa

We had Christmas dinner party at the pub over 40 of us,great setting , great staff and great food. The food was very good and came out in good time even thou there was lots of us eating at the same time

Had our engagement drinks here. Staff couldn't have been friendlier or more accommodating. Couldn't recommend it enough.

Enjoyed our meal in this traditional London pub. The atmosphere is good, staff are friendly and service was really good. We had various meals, fish and chips, burgers, steak etc. and all were nicely presented and well cooked. Prices for food and drinks are reasonable, would definitely go back when in the area.

Had a few roasts here, all of which have been delicious.

We booked Sunday lunch for six, two tables had been reserved and we pushed them together.

This is a nice pub for a gastro meal and they serve a decent pint of Guinness. Good atmosphere, little garden out the back and an open fire in winter.

Soggiornando nella zona di battersea abbiamo deciso una sera di provare questo tipico pub inglese lontano dai percorsi turistici e frequentato solo da locali.

Having visited here previously for early evening supper I booked the terrace bar for our monthly work event and cannot recommend this venue, the owner and the staff highly enough. Even with last minute additions to the attendance, the team were superb and delivered three courses effortlessly to our group. The room is a superb venue for private events, fully self-sufficient with a bar and bathrooms and the excellent terrace overlooking the power station is also wonderful, particularly on a beautiful sunny evening as we were lucky enough to have yesterday evening. Excellent value for money with a huge selection of beers, real ales, ciders and wine, the food was hearty, and tremendous portions and I've had nothing but compliments from my colleagues today for finding such a great place. Yassin, the owner, is an excellent and professional host and looked after us with his team from start to finish. We will definitely be returning!

As non-locals, were looking for somewhere to meet friends for Sunday lunch and a pint before we went to a show at the Battersea Barge. The Duchess was perfect. Generous portions, well prepared and presented. Good choice of ales and friendly, efficient staff. Couldn't ask for more...I highly recommend this pub.

I hired this venue for my 40th on a Saturday night. We had exclusive use of the whole of upstairs (a big room, private bar and massive balcony... and toilets!). It was a terrific venue in terms of space and flexibility, particularly given all the weather possibilities in August, and was excellent value for money.Both managers who helped me to arrange the catering were extremely helpful, giving practical advice on what/ how much and anticipating potential issues before they came up.Both bar staff who were on duty upstairs that night were incredibly friendly and helpful. They helped to put up decorations (and take them down) and offered a really proactive service to me and my guests- staying out of the way when necessary while keeping everyone topped up. So helpful- thank you!

Quick and friendly service, gave good recomendations from the menu. Went for the fish and chips which were hand made and extremely filling. Pub itself was nicely decorated and the garden is cute.

Hired the pub for a significant Birthday & couldn't be happier. Great venue, lovely staff, had a great time as did all my family & friends. Will definitely be back to sample the food & a Mount Gay & coke! X

We held our recent wedding reception (8th July 2017) at the Duchess with exclusive hire of the entire venue. Absolutely beyond ‘exceptional’ from the very first mention of a potential booking through to our last guests leaving for the night (and on reflection, beyond!).The Manager, the Assistant Manager and the entire bar staff team are truly ‘second to none’!We had a couple of meetings with the management to plan the day in the months leading up to the day. This was invaluable for us to ensure all bases were ‘covered’ as such and to my surprise I often left, not only with an even stronger sense of confidence that our wedding day would go without a ‘hitch’ (pardon the pun!) but surprisingly I always left with bigger and better suggestions to enhance my plans, very often for things I perhaps hadn’t thought of, whether relevant to the reception or the wedding beforehand. I cannot thank the team at the Duchess enough!The venue itself is just beautiful! The outdoor flowers are in abundance and so pretty too. The main bar is quite something and leaves all other local places paling insignificantly. The fairly grand staircase leads to the upper level of the venue which is truly stunning, adorned in light from the ceiling to floor windows leading out to the large balcony area overlooking Battersea Power Station – a view any photographer would be keen to make use of – amazing! This upstairs part of the venue also has a bar and ample WC’s for guests.The final part of the venue, the very reason I chose it, is the decked back garden area. Our July wedding was absolutely perfect to make good use of this pretty little suntrap. Again, the pretty outdoor floral arrangements were in abundance. We chose to have a more relaxed wedding reception and therefore opted to have the chef undertake a BBQ in the garden. The set up for which was extremely well organised by the Duchess.The food produced at the Duchess in general exceeds any we’ve ever tried locally (their Sunday roast is to die for!) and our BBQ was no exception, a very far cry indeed from the stereotypical BBQ style foods usually served at a large scale event. Our guests are still talking about the food having been the best BBQ they’ve “ever had” – a real compliment, given very many of them are real ‘foodies’.The management were also upfront and honest about all costs. We know of venues that have hit friends of ours with charges at the last minute for things like cutting up the wedding cake, so it was great to be treated so fairly and to feel clear minded on something I know can very often become such a burden.Both my husband, Elliot, and I cannot thank each and every one of the staff at the Duchess enough for what was truly the best day of our lives! Despite several curveballs (from us, guests and suppliers!) everything was managed so carefully and with absolute focus by the team that we can truly say our wedding day was exactly what we wanted and yet also beyond all our expectations. All of our guests have taken the time to speak to us since specifically to compliment us on their experience of the reception party at the Duchess and many of the well-seasoned wedding guests have labelled it the best wedding reception they have ever been to – what greater compliment is there!If you are looking for a venue to hold an event in Battersea we cannot recommend the Duchess enough, a rare gem amidst the chaos that so often London can feel! Its relaxed and friendly environment is something often lacking in the bars/pubs of Battersea combined with amazing food and exceptional service that is truly second to none that I have experienced in my many years as Directors PA/Office Manager arranging hundreds of events both in London and beyond.Thank you!!Stefanie and Elliot

Found ourselves looking for a good old pub and hopefully a bite to eat while staying just off Chelsea Bridge. This place looks great from the outside, and does not disappoint.There's a lovely horseshoe bar crowned with a chandelier. Lots of old wood and lines of good ales to choose from. Staff were very personable and welcoming.We ordered a sharing platter, and it was absolutely delicious. Will definitely be going back for a return visit (also just down the road from the Battersea Dogs & Cats home - so you could always pop in en route to doing a good deed)

Everyone who celebrated my Birthday party raved about The Duchess the next day! The food, the staff and the service all contributed to a warm and friendly ambiance amongst my guests which created a most pleasant evening. The landlord and his staff assured me of a perfect party and they did not disappoint. The chef produced some fine charcuterie boards and de-stalked the strawberries - nice touch! We shall return this Christmas and look forward to some festive food and good cheer, together with fairy lights on the cranes opposite at Battersea Power Staton.

We had our very own Duchess' birthday lunch at The Duchess.Service, food , drink and landlords humour - simply the best.Now the secret is blown. Enjoy you will not be disappointed

Staying in Battersea we searched for somewhere nearby as the London weather was not too kind to us. Visited the Duchess early evening and it was very quiet. We ordered two meals of ham egg and chips and fish and chips. The chips were described on the menu as home-cooked however ours certainly looked and tasted like frozen chips. The food was good although we did think it expensive for what we had. Two meals, two pints and two glasses of wine was just short of £60. Also noticed a service charge added to the bill which I could expect in a restaurant but not in a pub? Sadly we would not return as we found better value places in the area.

This was such a refreshing visit. It is a small personal restaurant where you feel you are being taken care of by the proprietors. They were so friendly and attentive. The food was good and seemed like what I would expect from a classic English Pub. We were there on Tuesday and were able to enjoy the Tuesday Burger special... choice of 7 different Burgers. Hubby had the Lamb burger, I had the soft shell crab. Both were delish. He had 'proper chips' and I had sweet potato chips. Both were really good. Fresh buns with interesting finish. We didn't have dessert, but the adjacent table had ice cream in several different flavors that they seemed to really enjoy.

Ate here with my parents a couple of Sunday's ago.Recently moved to the area and had only ever walked past-didn't know there was a gorgeous little sun trap garden at the back!I had the roast chicken which was huge and excellent value.Staff were polite and service was good. Good value from the new local-my stepdad can't wait to return also on his next visit to Battersea!

Clearly the environment around Battersea Power Station is already changing pending the redevelopment of the area into residential. The Duchess has been transformed into an excellent gastro pub. Great menu and at a good price. Service also a plus. Good for Sunday lunch.

If you're after a London pub with loads of character then the Duchess in Battersea worn disappoint. The food is standard pub menu, but ok for that. Very good balance of ales and a reasonable beer garden.

It may have been because i was absolutely starving. But the fish and chips were probably the best I've ever eaten. The people who run the pub were very friendly and accommodating for me and my dog! Good beer too! Worth a trip back i think!

We have been at this beatiful pub for lunch.It is located near the Battersea Power Station which is famous as it was on the cover of Pink Floyd's album 'Animals', on which it was photographed with the group's inflatable pink pig floating above it.The food was delicious, we had fish 'n' chips and a Truman's Pale, the service was very good, friendy and attentive.

What an amazing pub the Duchess is in Battersea. I hired the pub for a private party and I was not disappointed. Firstly the pub itself is decorated beautifully. It's clean, sharp and sophisticated, all the guests commented on the venue. The Manager and bar staff were so helpful on the run up to the party and the night itself. There were many options of food choices for our guests and again, everyone commented on the quality and presentation of the food on the night.The staff organised a fantastic DJ for the event and there is also a quirky terrace out the back which I bet is heaving in the summer months. A great find, I would thoroughly recommend to others for a private function.

We booked the upstairs function room for our end of year sales meeting. The venue is absolutely gorgeous and has been decorated to a very high standard. All the staff are lovely and friendly with a great atmosphere, both in the function room and at the bar plus, great food and fine wines. Would highly recommend.

We love coming to the Duchess (2 minutes from our place). Pie Monday is a great deal! They have other great food deals throughout the week. (Steak 2 for 1 on Wednesday and traditional roast on Sunday)

There is so much new development happening in Battersea that this traditional old pub, situated adjacent to the enormous Battersea Power Station development, now sits almost on it's own in a location that you would probably not be naturally drawn to. But don't let that put you off.The pub is an architectural beauty. Good staff, great beers and wines and very good food will ensure that you have an enjoyable time.We used the function room upstairs for a team meeting before retiring downstairs. We couldn't have been happier with the experience.Highly recommended.

This building is very unique com0ared to it surroundings and has a varied selection of drinks. The decor is comfortable yet trendy, and has a array of natural features. Food menu and portion some look good from what I saw. Great pub in a random location.

Decided to eat here after I had worked in the pub on a breakdown. The kitchen is spotless the chefs are real professional.We went for sunday roast and ordered two x beef and one x chicken all perfectly cookedLots of vegetables which were cooked perfectly with a some lovely roast beef also perfectly cooked for my taste. Very filling, chicken roast brilliant as well.I can highly recommended this place, service was great and Roger came around to ask if are meal was OK

We held my mother's 60th in the beautiful upstairs function room. Very helpful, friendly staff, great decor, fantastic catering and a private bar attached to the function room. Two thumbs up!

We've held our staff Christmas parties at the Duchess and are always really happy with the service provided by Toni, Yassin and the team who work so hard to make sure that everything runs smoothly. The team at the Duchess are so friendly and helpful and make organising the party really easy - they are very flexible when it comes to food choices and the party food this year has been the best we've had. Everyone has a great time, and goes away with a big smile on their face. As someone who has also visited the Duchess on many an occasion for lunch I can also recommend their lunch menu!

We had our daughters 21st in the function room was a great night the manager/bar staff were great. food amazing. would recommend the pub and function room for hire thanks for all what you done to help making a great night for our daughter.

We had a fab night at The Duchess celebrating my nieces 21st birthday. From beginning to end the owners / bar staff looked after everyone and the food was amazing x

We enjoyed a well cooked and tasty Sunday lunch here a couple of weeks ago. The pub was busy so we had to wait a little for our lunch, we should have booked! It was a treat to enjoy reasonably priced, great food served by friendly staff. Thoroughly recommend the food, sorry can't advise on drink as we were driving.

Great pub nice friendly staff. Beer well kept food good. Beer garden at back is a great pub as nice decor. All in all great pub

Chilled pub with friendly staff. Overlooking Battersea Power Station and easy to walk to from Battersea area. Food is superb and the pub is a little gem.

Visited this pub as we were just walking past and thought it looked nice. Only intended on having one quick drink in there and going but ended up staying here all afternoon/ evening. A great selection of drinks and spirits, pub has a great set up with get attention to detail with the decor and atmosphere. Was a shame that we didn't have a meal as we had already eaten Sunday Dinner but every meal that we saw looked great so will have to go back for that if we are in the area again.

Had a few pints in the duchess for a work mates leaving do. Good pints of hoegarden amongst the usual beers and cider available. Nice decor as well.

Hired out the Duchess for a work event which included more than 70 people in the function room Since I first started organising the after party drinks I have been in contact with Yassin; he has been excellent to deal with and made the process as simple as possible. Information was returned quickly to me, organisation and coordination of the event was perfect and he was very patient in rather uncertain times.As for the event, everything was perfect and everybody who attended had a great time. The food was delicious and went down an absolute treat and the staff were very friendly and hardworking. I would certainly not have any issues recommending the pub to friends.

We had a 70th birthday party, upstairs at The Duchess and were given first class treatment by all the staff, even though they were busy with clients in the downstairs bar and garden.Everyone enjoyed all the food.The Sunday Roast was well presented and had a large variety of veg. Delicious, tender meat ( pork beef andchicken) and also when we had roast lamb there, on another occasion, it was the same very high quality.The bar staff were very attentive, clearing the tables rapidly and even making sure elderly guests got the best taxi deals, by speaking personally to the drivers.The Duchess is well managed and one of the most delightful pubs in London.When the upstairs terrace is open, it'll be The Best ( I know because we had a party there 6 years ago before the building had to be renovated-wonderful)

Duchess is a nice pub, the food is great the drink selection is huge. Only a couple of easily fixed downfalls. The girl behind the bar was VERY rude and unhelpful (not only towards our group but everyone in the venue), the fellow was great so we opted to be served by him instead.There are a few statues and other bits around the pub which give it a funny vibe. The two very large unmissable photos of the naked women are great pieces and I can appreciate the art but not so sure they belong in the pub. The whole place give mixed feelings of what it's trying to be. The owner obviously has very mixed visions and can't decide if the place is a high class gentle mans club or a great little local for good food and good booze.. On the plus side there is a lovely little fire place, would be great if it was lit though !! Was quite a rainy chilly day and would have added to the experience.Hopefully over the years the Duchess will find its feet and figure out what it wants to be, then its punters can really sit back relax and enjoy.

Visited the Duchess for only the second time over the Easter weekend despite living down the road. The food is amazing, table service which is unusual for a pub. And extremely good value for a quality London pub with mains around a tenner. Best macaroni cheese I've ever tasted. Great selection of ales/cider. Always surprised that its not that busy, hopefully it will be after the power station development is done! Go Visit!

Went with 4 friends for lunch last Sunday, all of us had Sunday roasts - 3 beef, 1 pork and 1 lamb. All of them are delicious!!! The portion size is big - the meat comes with cauliflower cheese, cabbage, broccoli, carrot and swede mash, roast potatoes, parsnip and Yorkshire pudding with a little stuffing ball inside and a little sausage wrapped in bacon. Yummy... and all for £12-£13! Very highly recommended. Good selection of beers on tap too. The only reason why last Sunday's trip was not a 5-star is because of the waitress. She warmed up to us throughout the meal, but she was stand-offish at the start, seemed not interested in serving us. One example - she walked away from our table before one of my friends finished his sentence!

Went with the family for a couple of meals. The food was excellent and the staff were great. Very friendly and helpful. The pub was quiet when we were there, but would make it a regular haunt whenever I am in London.

Chose this while staying at a nearby hotel on business. Very reasonable prices, nice atmosphere, decent food and friendly staff. Can't go wrong.

I use to go to this restaurant to sunday roast,they have 5 or 6 kind of sunday roast and a excelent burguer. Everything home made. Very hight quality food and not very expensive. For my experience best sunday roast I ever have in London

had a great evening at this nice place a must visit for any one in the battersea area.nice food and drink and very clean.

My boyfriend and I enjoyed a roast here on Sunday after being persuaded by one of the staff outside that it was a "brilliant roast". I often find roasts in London to be too much style over substance however this was absolutely delicious! The pub was quite empty however the staff were very friendly and we were made to feel comfortable. We would definitely go again if in the area

First time I've been back since about May. Was very disappointed, I used to drink in the Duchess frequently till I had to move suddenly. I was expecting the same wonderful bar staff and food. The food was still on point and extremely tasty !! Unfortunately I wasn't greeted when I walked into the pub and was left waiting while the girl behind the bar finished her conversation before bothering to serve me. Found the young woman stand offish and rude, as I asked for a larger instead of receiving suggestions, I was rudely told "we've got heaps of those" leaving me to feel stupid for asking. As the food is so good and it is my first bad experience I will return to give it one more chance, but am hesitant to take anyone with me, will have to see how the next visit goes.

Being a northern girl I do love a Sunday roast. Living in London for over 2 years now I have yet to find one that ticks all the boxes. This is right up there!The price was £12.50 for the I'm beef. TickI was asked how I would like the beef cooked. Tick.The plate came with two big slices of perfectly cooked beef. Tick.Along with the beef came cauliflower cheese, green cabbage, red cabbage, broccoli, carrot and swede mash, roast potatoes and Yorkshire pudding with a little stuffing ball inside and a little pig wrapped in bacon. Big tick!!The plate wasn't missing anything!It was all cooked superbly and had flavour!I only wish I asked for more gravy, but that's standard. My friends enjoyed theirs too, it was not a fluke.After I couldn't help myself and I got the chocolate brownie with ice cream. Also delicious.So happy I tried this little pub. I will be returning!!!

I think it has recently changed hands and IMHO it's in good hands, food was good and beers clean and crisp - will try to get back during the RWC when it will be in it's element

Typical Sunday roasts but well above average food in terms of quality of food, quantity and price. Honestly the food was enough to keep you going all day. Good selection of beers on tap too. Service with a smile and not too busy - though not a big pub and not so many tables so you might want to book ahead to guarantee a spot.

Found on trip advisor as a local place to eat from where we were staying near Battersea park.Obviously looked a bit lost when we walked in, the place was buzzing with friendly atmosphere, the landlord greeted us & pointed us in the right direction of a great choice of real ales.Had an evening meal which was superb, people & staff very friendly. Highly recommended if you're in the area

Good selection of beers and wines. Wednesday is streak night. Sunday dinners scored 9 out of 10. Nice open beer terrace to the rear.

We stumbled across The Duchess on a short trip away and would highly recommend this, the staff and locals were very friendly & helpful. The biggest surprise was the food absolutely delicious and homemade.......somebody nows what they are doing. Try it!

Went with friends for sunday roast in the back courtyard. A little bit more pricey than the average place but the quality was really spot on. Everything on the plate was delicious. Recommend!
