This moderately priced and spacious tavern has all the charm of a small pub, but with all the new bits. Hungry? They’ve got Thai in the back. I’m not usually a fan of anything more than a greasy burger and fries coming out of the kitchen of a pub, but Latymers delivers an authentic Thai take away to go down with one of the range of lagers, ales and stout on the bar. The staff are great for a chat, but quick on their feet so nobody’s hanging around waiting for their pint. Plenty of room for after work drinks but I haven’t made it here on a Saturday yet to judge. Latymers is a must if you’re in Hammersmith and want somewhere to relax with the squad.

Read the Unilocal reviews, great little restaurant inside the pub. Had the green curry with prawns. Yum. be aware the rice was extra.

This is a great place for happy hour should you desire to hang out at a pub after working hours. I’m a wine person, so I can only comment on those drinks, but they were just A-OK. After throwing back a few wines it was nice to have a food option in the same building. While there is a Thai restaurant in back, I really wanted fries(and they had them). I’m not sure if it was the alcohol talking, but the curly fries were pretty damn good … I highly recommend them.

Went for a weekday evening dinner, and I really enjoyed everything. We ordered wings for starter, then I ordered pad kee mao for main. Wings were phenomenal with very flavourful sauce. I really liked my main as well — very spicy as it’s supposed to be and served in healthy portions. My bf’s pad Thai looked good too, though on this, I might have seen better. Ambience was very nice and unique. It’s situated inside a pub, but when you walk in, it almost feels like a standalone restaurant. Simple but tasteful decorations. Above all, I liked the intimate feel of it all. Service was also good and prompt. The owner took time to joke with us, and they served everything on time without any issue. Would definitely go back for both food and perhaps, beer as well at the pub!

I went here with a work colleague whilst I was attending a seminar at the Kensington Olympia. We ordered drinks first and I didn’t have to wait long at all. They had more than enough staff to get to customers quickly so that we didn’t have to wait. Also, considering the location and the fact that the area is seriously lacking some good pubs, the prices were also good. They also gave customer service that you would think they wouldn’t bother with, but they do and the staff are friendly and courteous. They have a good selection of drinks too. The pub has a Thai restaurant that is a separate entity, and located at the end of the pub. I got served immediately — although you do have to go up to their counter as I couldn’t see table service, but it is after all a pub. We got our food within ten minutes and it was lovely. Really good traditional Thai food. A very decent portion size too. The prices for food were excellent! We sat outside and although in London, didn’t feel like I was sat by the curb, it was relaxing and enjoyable. Had I not have been going back to the Olympia I would have most likely stayed there for a few more drinks. The place was immaculate and well looked after. If/when I am next back in the area I will definitely be going back there :)

This is such a hidden gem. It looks like your standard pub from the outside and I would never have thought to go in there if it hadn’t been recommended to me because it is so out of the way. It’s a pub at the front with a little Thai kitchen at the back serving delicious Thai food! All I can remember is I had number 16 both times I went and it was amazing. The first time I wanted to pay by card but the minimum was £10 so I ended up buying starters I couldn’t manage to be able to pay for it. However the second time I was able to pay for it under £10 — this dish is only about £7.50 which is very reasonable for quite a big portion.(I should add that the starters were also delicious, what I could eat of them). An excellent lunch-time eat for anyone working in London, you can be in and out in 30 minutes.

A good few years ago now, the food trend du jour was for Thai food in pubs. Don’t ask me why, I wasn’t involved, though I do remember it involving pre-prepared easy dishes and just enough fried stuff to make sense alongside a couple of pints. In these fast moving days of lusty tattooed young chefs preparing robust local food in every spit and sawdust boozer in zones 1 and 2, that seems pretty old hat. Thankfully for the food historians, there are still a few working examples of the lazy predecessor to the gastro pub. The Windmill on the Cut in Waterloo is one(though the clientele and the actors spilling from the nearby theatres mean it’s still one of my favourite pubs in London, albeit not for the food). Latymers in Hammersmith suburb Brook Green is another. Pre-prepared tasting sauces, frozen veg and factory spring rolls, old sticky rice and tough fatty duck all reared their heads. This is food you’ll keep eating for a while afterwards, and not in a good way.

Good and authentic Thai food inside this pub. The first time I came to this pub for the Thai food, I wasn’t expecting much, but it hit the right spot and I just keep coming back for the food that they serve. The menu is not extensive. The dishes, noodles and rice are delicious. The pancake dessert is heavenly. Food portion is generous. Price wise, not over the top.

This is a pub and a Thai restaurant in the same building so great for a quick meal followed by a pint. It’s well presented place and the food is decent. If you live nearby it’s worth a visit, otherwise there is plenty of other decent Thai restaurants around.

Latymers is a fantastic pub on the main street in Hammersmith, with a great ambience and atmosphere, along with several sports screens usually on sky sports news. During weekday lunch times(and maybe weekend as well) they do a special thai menu, of about 20 dishes. I didnt think I was a Thai fan, but both times I have visited here I ahve been pleasently surprised by both the quality and quantity of the food on offer, so much that we have memorised the menu and know which dish we are going to order! Down sides are that it can get a bit cramped if there is a big group, as is usually the case with us, and it does usually get pretty popular, especially on a Friday. But it’s always worth it for a work do or if you forget your lunchtime sandwiches!

Nice pub with a very nice authentic Thai restaurant at the back. Busy at lunch with the crowds from Warner and Disney alike, quieter in the evening. Huge portions and very nice staff.

Calling this a ‘Thai Café’ is a bit misleading. It’s a pub with a Thai restaurant out the back — a game of two halves which sells Fullers ales in the front and an excellent menu at the rear. The pub is not terribly ‘pubby’ but there is a relaxed vibe there especially at weekends. Its only real drawback is the lack of serious outside space apart from tables on the street corner. In its former incarnation as the Red Cow(closed down 1980) it was a notorious music pub, the first place AC-DC played in the UK and a regular gig for the Stranglers. It was also the local for the crew of the 1970s TV series ‘The Sweeney’ and features in several episodes.
