13:00 Came here for lunch as I have developed a taste for 'Spoon's Burritos. As a contrast to my previous stop the meal and a 5.4% beer cost me £4.99 in total.

Website.

The pub is found in Ealing, Greater London, W5 3TJ.

Formerly a Slug & Lettuce, and a Hogs Head, this became a Wetherspoon's in 2008. As it is a former pub it does not the feel of a typical 'Spoon's. Three distinct areas and a glass covered outside drinking area at the front. The toilets are as usual upstairs and the staircase is remarkably narrow. The pub is named after the man behind many famous Ealing films including The Ladykillers.

We have visited this pub once, seen 7 different beers and tried 1 of them.
