About Duke Of Kent
Vast, wood-panelled pub whose leafy beer garden and kids' play area is planted with edible produce.
An imposing suburban Fuller's house rebuilt in 1929 to designs by T H Nowell Parr and dominated externally by three gables on the rendered frontage. There are three distinct rooms with internal partitions, the pair on the right even retaining a doorway between them. The wall panelling remains as does the bar counter although the fitting behind seems a modern replacement. The windows contain attractive dimpled glass. At the rear the counter is original. The back parts were extended in 1934 to Parr’s design and contains a large hemispherical skylight. The main menu is freshly prepared, featuring English and Mediterranean dishes. There is a large garden containing many picnic tables. The terrace bar has heated large umbrellas and the summer BBQs are popular. There is usually live jazz on the last Thursday of every month with The Dick Esmond Trio and guests. The pub is part of the local community running the beer tent at the annual Party In The Park.

Been here a couple of times, with kids and family for lunch. Perfect pub for summer and outdoor vibes. HUGE beer garden with kids small play area and climbing frame. Outdoor Ping pong tables and gaming tables (bring dice!). Really fun for kids. The food is top notch, large portions and delicious. This is beyond pub-grub. There is a kids menu too, but the Mac n cheese was not good - and the Cumberland sausage may be a bit too herby for kids. Stick with fish n chips or burger. Delicious gravy, proper mash. Excellent service and staff attitude, very friendly. Nice beers, with good selection of…

A great pub with the best beer garden in the area. Playground for kids 4+ but it's not huge, but still a good edition. Inside well decorated, only gripe would be value of the food. The fish and chips was decent and the burger was good but the amount of fries for £18 was a bit sad. I saw a beer for £8.50 per pint and almost cried.

A great pub! The prices are very reasonable considering the location. A massive variety of seating both indoors and out. The garden seating area is very pleasant and the is a tented area aswell. The toilets are clean here. I will go again!

Wedding reception at The Duke of Kent pub in Ealing. Nestled in the heart of Ealing, The Duke of Kent pub offers a warm embrace for any occasion, including weddings. As a London-based documentary wedding photographer, I recently had the pleasure of capturing moments of joy at this delightful venue. From the moment you step through the door, you're greeted by the inviting charm of the pub and its incredibly friendly staff. Their relaxed demeanor immediately puts you at ease, setting the perfect tone for a celebration. One of the highlights of this venue is its versatility. Not only does it…

Great pub just off lovely Pitshanger Park in North Ealing. Huge beer garden with plenty of tables, BBQ, covered area and kids playground. Ideal for big friends/family gathering, long summer days and night drinks.
