The Black Bull just opposite Bull Gate, Ravenscourt Park to reopen after 8 years. I have to say that must be the only pub in the 'Smith that I haven't been in. Apparently locals up in arms about it. Anyone been there ?

A Pub Reopens !! on 16:27 - Sep 22 with 6821 views
The Hammersmith Newsletter from whence I got the info, says residents are worried about noisy late night smokers outside and daytime drinkers being a menace to schoolchildren. Perhaps it had a bad reputation but I can't think of a pub in Hammersmith that would pose such a threat.

I haven’t been there. It looks like a classic flat roof pub and I can’t imagine why anyone would want to go there when there are so many better options in Hammersmith. Maybe they plan a big refurbishment, but frankly I was amazed that anyone thinks reopening it is a commercial proposition. I am an occasional Spoons customer so I don’t think this is just me being a pub snob.

I hear ya Mikey. Looked set on the road to extended decay. For the location coundnt see a shop opening there. And never imagined somone would redo a pub.
Not to derail but one of my locals, the Dartmouth (bit pricey but good for food and a few with the missus, and the manager is massive QPR) has had the street extentions pulled in. Haven't been there in a while and hoping it's not closing, anyone heard anything?

There are any number of really good pubs 5 or 10 minutes walk from the Bull. Prisoner of War, Raven, Cross Keys, the Thatched House. I won't be visiting the Bull.

Aha. Used to be the Ravensworth arms. Drank in there quite a lot. Was the polar opposite yo a gastro pub and was small but had a a nice pool table there. Think local post station made up a lot of it's clientele. Was a serviceable pub. Set back from the main road and always felt a bit geographically isolated even though it was not.

Still don't know it. Where exactly was it ?

If you’re lucky… https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/art The Thatched House should be a good pub, but the staff seem gormless. I saw one pouring gravy on a customer from a roast dinner while he tried to remember who to give it to.

I still like the Thatched. Its heyday was when ex Fulham & England centre forward and Fulham manager Bedford Jezzard ran the pub. He was quite a bloke. I used to tell people he sold us Rodney Marsh but it wasn't him really. Anyone know who it was ?
