Pubs near heathrow

Post by kingarthur » Wed Jul 11, 2018 1:01 pm

Long story short, I’m staying in a hotel at Heathrow airport for the evening with work.
Does anyone have any recommendations for pubs/towns near by that will be good for game tonight (ideally with an outdoor screen). I know next to nothing about the area.
Thanks in advance.

Sorry I can't be more specific with the name, we used it when I stayed over for the Army v Navy Rugby in May and watched Haye v Bellew that night.

Depends where you are near Heathrow. If you are in the area where all the hotels are on the Bath Road, there is a pub called The Three Magpies. Good ales and food and lots of big screens.

Premier Inn Bath Road has a projector they shine off the opposite wall in the foyer.

Failing that The Pheasant might have it-

Easy = Three Magpies on the Bath road will have it - nice pub. I worked at LHR for years and watched games in there. I saw a Clarets match in there at Xmas
Pheasant a good shout but not been there for a long time
Other towns by taxi = Staines or Richmond the latter is the best place but further away

Used to stay at Heathrow a lot and now stay in Staines. As already said 3 Magpies is best but is very small so you'll have to get in early to get a spot. Pheasant is a lovely place for food but wouldn't go there to watch sport.

Staines is absolutely dead and sh*t and if youre going farther a field it would be easier getting tube to Hammersmith rather than going to Richmond and probably better.

My alternative shout if you don't mind a 15 min taxi ride is a pub called the Prince of Wales in Southall. Its an Indian pub that is football crazy. Loads of screens and reasonably big but id suggest being there by 6pm to get a seat and the mixed Indian starter platters are the best ive ever tasted. Was there for the first leg of the Liverpool - Roma game this year and it was absolutely bouncing
