LFW Pub Guide - Days Inn

Further afield, and part of a hotel, but if you’re coming from South Ruislip tube it may be of some use.

Name of pub: Days Inn South Ruislip.

Location: Next to South Ruislip Underground Station

Size: Medium size hotel bar.

Selection of beers? Average, I'll look carefully next time.

Price of drinks? Seems to be typical for the suburbs - sensible as opposed to more central prices.

How full does it get on a matchday? Not very, same gang of South Ruislip based R's pre and post match.

How fit are the bar staff? Usual combination of attractive, young eastern European females.

How long does it take to walk to the ground from there? Two minutes to South Ruislip Station, 20 minutes to White City on the central and then five minutes to Loftus Road.

Sky Sports/ESPN? Yes.

Suitable for away fans? Yes, but probably would not think to go in there.

Suitable for families and kids? Yes - usual haunt of several Rangers families.

What's the smoking situation? The whole of outdoor area of South Ruislip is at your beck and call.

Beer garden? No. If you want that then you need to go next door to "The Middlesex" which has both front and rear beer gardens.

As far as pub toilets go, just how bad are these? Hotel standard fare.

Does it serve food and is it any good? Yes, Indian and Italian - which is a bit strange.

Trendy modern bar, traditional pub or somewhere in between? Modern hotel bar.

In one sentence why should people visit/steer clear of this pub? It’s clean, nice sofas, quiet, next to the station and you can always nip next door to The Middlesex to fight the Chelsea if that is your heart’s desire.

Any other business? http://www.daysinnheathrow.com/
