The Crown and Sceptre in Melina Road fits the bill perfectly on all counts if you like Thai food. | | | |

Just don’t expect to get much beer in after 1pm.But that seems to be happening to most pubs in Shepherd’s Bush on match days now.
I thought they wanted us to stock up on water not beer. |  | | |

C&S is busy, but not a rugby scrum. | |

When I came over recently I tried the White Horse and the C&S and I'd say the C&S is more to my taste - good atmosphere and they sell Fuller's beer. | | | |

C&S is a good shout but you'll need to get in there by 12.30 (for 3pm KO) to get a table. |  |

The Broadcaster, just over the road from Wood Lane station, might be an option. I've been once and it was okay, although it could be described as a bit poncy, and certainly on the expensive side for the area. I don't think it showed football. |  | | |

The OP stated that he wanted hand pumped local beer, so I think that rules out The Broadcaster (and the rest of the bars around Westfield).
The Defectors (Young's) is a possibility, but I'm not certain that fits the good food criteria. | | | |

We love the C&S but not been this season as by the time we get there it's too late to get a table. We have been going to the Princess Victoria or The Askew both decent boozers showing the lunchtime games and it's proper glasses not plastic. The Guinness in The Askew is better.
Both also close to the Pie,Mash and Liquor shop too if you want a real London cuisine experience. Askew about 20 minute walk to the ground PV about 15 minutes. | | | |

The Askew is great. Definitely a better Guinness and more reasonably priced, although the food is very basic and they don't have cask ales.
Another vote for the C&S though from what OP is after. Gets busy at the bar, but you can still get served. Just have to be a bit patient.
Never liked the Princess Vic, service has always been really poor plus they lack any soft furnishings to absorb the noise, so it's always really loud even when it's half empty. |  | | |

The Thatched House in Dalling Rd has real ale and good food - I think they have football on the telly.
Downside, it's a 20 min or so walk to the ground. |  | | |

C and S is my regular on matchdays, but for getting served easily with good food and beer I go to the Princess Vic two or three times a season. Pricey and less atmospheric. They do show live sport pre-match. | | | |

Love the PV too, but they have erratic ale supplies, frequently none at all. | |

And, if you have any idiosyncrasies about bogs, the PV’s are far more comfortable that the ‘summiting’ required at the C&S. | |

Stewart Arms used to be decent. Across the road from Shepherds Bush (central line) station. Bit of a walk to HQ
Shepherd & Flock on Goldhawk Road does a good pint of Guinness - cash only bar though and boy does it get busy, but get there early and there are some nice booths to sit and watch the football |  | | |

I like the Stewart, but no food, no hand pump (usually). |  | | |

Enjoy a good hand pump myself, but since pubs got rid of strippers… | |

We used to use The Richmond - Hammersmith Road but fled when it was appropriated by Greene King (and didn't bother with either IPA or Abbot} -short stay at a couple near Holland Park but last few years have met in The Uxbridge (Behind Notting Hill} - decent pub keeping limited but very well-kept ales -currently Harveys and ANO plus a range of "craft/kegs) and excellent Guinness. Pub food looks good but not a Gastro -boozer. After just hop on the Central from Notting Hill Gate to White City and walk down. Busy, lively and friendly pub which will be showing morning games - tends not to get too packed. | | | |
