"The surprise Golden Globes best picture, which has its star, Rami Malek, shortlisted for best actor at the Oscars for his role as Freddie Mercury, includes a surprise filming location. The Griffin pub is a trad-Brit sort of joint near Brentford football club, with a menu including fish and chips, burgers and sausage and mash. Though supper club offerings are a cut above, include ‘locally-sourced pigeon’ lobster and osso bucco, the decor is so steeped in early 1980s nostalgia — all red and yellow carpets, oak-wood-panels and a stack of trophies teeming next to the darts board — that it was the perfect location for a cameo. For a scene set in 1985, over 100 pub-goers, all crammed in, watch Queen play at Live Aid." - Sophie Wilkinson

A very friendly welcome at this traditional pub. We enjoyed the drink and food and the prices were decent for 'down south'. I'd recommend the Thai curry and my husband really enjoyed the Chicken Kiev.

We always have a fantastic time at the Griffin - and our annual Xmas jumper party is the highlight of our year! The staff go above and beyond, the food is utterly incredible and the atmosphere gorgeous. This is definitely our favourite pub! Thank you Griffin Team!

It’s a lovely place in Brentford. We went there for Sunday roast and it didn’t disappoint. Being a vegetarian I had their Nut roast which was really good. Loved the gravy it was yummm could have had it as a soup hehe. Other half had beef roast and he loved it too. Food, service, ambiance, vibe was all superb. Defo recommend. And would visit again.

The perfect place for a pre-match pint, even with the club moving away from Griffin Park. Gary cooks a great sausage and chili in the beer garden. The pub oozes with character and history. A highlight of my trip over from the States. Eager to return one day.

Food was delicious. Service was spot on and the staff were very accommodating. Atmosphere was lovely, your traditional local pub with a cozy feel.

This is more than a simple pub (though it’s a quite good one for drink, conversation and football). What I love most here is the unexpected and creatively excellent food AND the friendly “vibe” that Gerhard and Clare offer to all. It’s a family-place but one where the loyal followers also welcome others. Now while I wish their peas were mushy, the fish was huge and sweet! So the Fish n Chips were top notch. But the Sunday Roast was outstanding!!! (Hungry just looking at the pic to post). As well, who in their right might would dream of making Haggis Samosas?? (The answer is Gerhard and my goodness they were creamy and delish- who knew!!!)
