best home supporter bar

Wolfie: which pub in the end, and what did you think of it?

[ron]

I was in both the Railway and The Duke's Head yesterday. I thought the prices in the latter were eye-watering, but good atmospheres in both.

The Coat and Badge was due to be the second, but it was so crowded we went on to the DH

Overall, the Railway gets my vote.

Golden Lion?
You sure....
The place is a disgrace!
Disgusting filthy toilets, tables and even salt & pepper pots are dirty. I don't think they ever clean in that place. Plus, you will wait an age to get served and that's usually in dirty glasses!

When I went over last year with the NOrwegian suppoerter club they told me,

"We usually go to the Golden Lion, its a dump of a toilet house, but for some reason a great atmosphere" :P and it truly was a filthy place :P

[RaySmith]

Not just for home supporters, but always a friendly atmosphere when I've been there, is The Coat and Badge in Putney. Don't go too often mind you as I come into Putney Bridge. Otherwise there is the Durrell Arms, decent beer and normally decent service.

Not the best pub (Coat and Badge is better) but for the best 'Fulham feel' it's the Golden Lion 57 Fulham High Street.  Enjoy!

My advice is to keep away from the

I have been told, it's so rough, even the arms of the chairs have tattoos on them.

I was in the GL at the end of last season and liked it.

Full of Fulham with a friendly atmosphere, and a nice garden if decent weather.

Most of the pubs round there seem to be away pubs now, with doormen. The Six Bells, next to the tube, is also an away pub, but they serve Fulham supporters in my experience.

Coat and Badge is a very nice pub but always found it to be full of yuppies on match day.

The Railway always has a mix of fans, wouldn't call it a home supporters bar especially as it's a weatherspoons.

+1. Good honest food and well kept  cheap real ale.

Bricklayers in my opinion is always the pub to go, but it does get a few away fans in there. Must be written up on away travel sites for ale fans

...is that a decent grub pub as well?

[King_Crud]

Doesn't do food, which can be a good or bad thing. Good as it doesn't attract the gastro pub crowd, but bad when you're hungry  :022:

But, possibly the most popular home pub both before and after games. Others tend to go through 'phases' of popularity, but you'll always find the Golden Lion packed.

Well I agree to some extent.....
A load of drunk lads who don't care 'bout nowt - ok pub which I can handle.
But, This lad is taking his lady  - I've done that and couldn't relax. Constantly trying to protect her from a'wipes that don't give a pooop that a woman gets bumped!
Also, we have sat at tables but they were unclean. The bogs - well I doubt a rat would enter even with the squits!
And getting served is a nightmare whatever you say.
Lads on the piss fine - can chant, shout, swearad effectively pee where you are stood - marvellous place!

Have to agree.  Crabtree for me.

City Arms, by Hammersmith Bridge.
Mostly ex Chancellors FFC fans, who got fed up with the poor beer and abrupt staff and moved on a few yards.

Golden Lion might not be the best pub in the world, but at least it's s proper pub , not many of them about inFulham.

Never really seen the attraction of theBrickkayers, too smallandcrampedfor my liking .

Never enjoyed the lager( hardly sell any types  of lagers anyway)


Do seem to be quite Agee snobs on here though who probably think the Luon is too common for them

If disliking the Luon makes me a snob then I hold my hands up.  However if I am going to spend my time and cash in a pub then I expect a nicer environment, better food and service than the Golden Lion will ever provide.  By the way I don't really get keg lager but enjoy bitter, so perhaps that has something to do with it as well (does that make me snobby too?).

I think you're missing a couple of bells there. The last time I check there were Eight of them.

It is generally an away pub, but I do like that place a lot. They have a little FFC 1975 Cup Final shrine over by the kitchen at the end of the bar, with framed programmes and pics of the team.

I usually drink in The Normanby, simply because that's my local when I'm back in London, and a lot of my friends drink there. On match days it's the Brick, but I popped in there at 7.45 on Saturday and it was completely empty! None of the usual suspects at all!

It has to be The Bedford, surely ?

It's a proper Fulham pub.
