The Durell Arms

Looking for that perfect London pub where epic nights are born? The Durell Arms in London's fabulous Fulham is about to become your new favorite haunt. This gorgeous Victorian corner pub isn't just another pretty face on Fulham Road – it's where "just one quick drink" turns into "remember that amazing night at The Durell?"

Trust me, you haven't truly experienced London's pub scene until you've settled into one of those cozy booths at The Durell Arms with a perfectly poured pint in hand. The ornate ceiling will have you doing double-takes (and not just because of the drinks). It's like drinking in a museum, except you're actually encouraged to get a bit rowdy here!

Let's talk about those BOOTHS though! Each one comes with its own TV, making it the perfect spot for everything from first dates (nothing breaks the ice like cheering on your team together) to friend reunions where you need that semi-private space to catch up on all the gossip. And when the Six Nations is on? This place transforms into sports heaven without losing an ounce of its charm.

The bar selection here is enough to make a craft beer enthusiast weep tears of joy. Whether you're a traditional ale aficionado or more of a trendy craft beer explorer, The Durell Arms in London has your back. Their rotating taps keep the regulars on their toes and the newcomers impressed. Pro tip: Ask the bartenders for recommendations – they know their stuff and love nothing more than matching you with your perfect pour.

But wait, we need to talk about the FOOD. This isn't your average pub grub – we're talking proper British classics that have been given a glow-up worthy of a Chelsea makeover. The burgers here? Legendary. Fish and chips? The kind that ruins all other fish and chips for you. And don't even get me started on the Sunday roasts – they're the kind of meal that makes you want to start a petition to make Sunday roasts mandatory every day of the week.

Speaking of mandatory – Tuesday night quiz! It's the perfect mix of challenging and fun, especially after a couple of their expertly crafted cocktails. Sometimes the questions are easy, sometimes they're impossible, but it's always a blast. Plus, it's the perfect excuse to show off all that random knowledge you've accumulated over years of Netflix binges.

The atmosphere here shifts seamlessly from casual afternoon pints to vibrant evening vibes. That gorgeous Victorian architecture combined with modern touches creates this perfect sweet spot between fancy and friendly. And the staff? They're the kind of people who remember your usual order and actually care if you're having a good time. Shout out to their legendary service team who've been known to go above and beyond – even reopening the coffee machine for that crucial late-night caffeine fix!

Did I mention they're dog-friendly? Nothing better than settling in for a pint with your four-legged friend and watching the parade of adorable pups that come through. It's like a dog show where everyone's a winner, and the prize is more treats from the bar staff.

Located just a hop and a skip from Parsons Green tube station, The Durell Arms sits pretty on that bustling stretch of Fulham Road that just screams "London at its finest." The outside seating area might be small, but it's perfectly formed for those rare sunny London days when you want to watch the world go by with a cold one in hand.

Listen, you could stay home tonight scrolling through Netflix... OR you could head to The Durell Arms where actual adventures happen. Where stories begin. Where "I'll just stay for one" becomes "I can't believe we just did that!" This isn't just another London pub – it's YOUR London pub waiting to happen. The Durell Arms is calling, and trust me, you want to answer this call. See you at the bar!
