76) The Idle Hour, Barnes
Great Saturday afternoon. This is a small but very quirk pub. There are clocks all over the place, even in some of the furniture, and all the clocks tell different times. There is a small bar which has only ever had one bar man behind it when I've been there. Having one barman is fine on a Saturday but this place really fills up on a Sunday as it does a superb roast, this meant that when I returned the service was very slow and only roast chicken was available. After the Saturday I rated this as a 9/10 but I have since demoted it to 8.5/10.
Also of note: The Sun Inn, Barnes
Whilst not in the pub guide I have also visted this pub a few times. It is a great family pub which serves big portions of very tasty pub grub. Although just accross the bridge from Hammersmith you definitely feel like you are in a little countryside village. 8/10.
