About Six Bells
High-ceilinged pub with regular live music, a dartboard and patio garden area, serving hearty fare.
The pub dates to at least 1722 and is one of the oldest public houses in Brentford. Fuller Smith & Turner owned it from 1815 and it was rebuilt in 1904. The pub was once the host to inquests in the early 19th Century. The origin of the name comes after the bells that were housed within the octagonal tower of St Lawrence's Church that were rung for special occasions and when Royalty travelled though the High Street.
The pub is now under new management (2022). Food offerings are currently burgers, baguettes and Barrel & Stone Pizza.

A very comfortable and accommodating pub, full of tradition. Interesting and attractive decor. Food looked very good although I didn't eat, quick pint and a ramekin of dry roasted nuts en route to Shepherd's Bush Empire. A decent pint of Mahou but there seemed to be confusion over the pricing of some drinks. Large beer garden to the side. I'd happily return.

It does what it says on the tin! The six bells by Brentford bridge is a simple unassuming pub offering a good selection of keg beers along with a couple of cask ales for the real ale drinkers. There is a lovely courtyard garden with plenty of seating to enjoy the sunshine. Lovely people behind the bar. Good place for a pint.

Come and see a good old fashioned brentford pub before gentrification turns it into a Gails or Starbucks Well kept beers and excellent food. Pie, mash and liquor is authentic and delicious and the fish and chips is crispy and super tasty. Large portions too. Friendly and accommodating staff and local punters.

I've had the best times there. It's my local. And the community, the chilled atmosphere are great. Plus the live acts, Gary Barlow tribute act, comedy hypnotist, disci nights... Etc... if you're in the area. Need a bite for lunch. Have a chilled drink. Just come down and have a beer.Jackie the landlady will take good care of you.
