We've long suspected that QPR fans must have a masochistic streak. If the reports we received that they use this place to meet before games are correct, then our suspicion would appear to be well founded. Okay, it's big and spacious, but a staggering lack of imagination and concern surrounds the whole venture. The décor is that blonde blandness which afflicts every modern chain from here to Istanbul. Quite a feat isn't it, to be less imaginative than the Allbar Slug & Piano chain? The beer is served with little care and the food may be good - we didn't try - but it looks like standard modern pub grub. And as for the toilets... UPDATE Well, we've not rushed back to this one, but when we find the blue and white stripe tops we will, as we can be masochistic too.

The Crown and Sceptre changed from a Fuller's Gastro Pub to a Fuller's Thai Franchise in February 09. This was due to the high proportion of Gastro's in the immediate area, so the pub tries to offer something different for it's customers. The Thai food is of a high standard, under the same management as Latimers in hammersmith. Although the kitchen is a franchise, the two blend together well, with waitress service for the food.



The pub still offers a relaxed and cozy atmosphere, with a beer garden which is great in the summer. The staff are all friendly and helpful. This pub is a back street local and although the drinks prices are slightly high, the atmosphere is worth it.



They are just starting to introduce music nights and other entertainment nights, as well as their weekly Monday Quiz night.



A huge refurbishment is planned for mid June.
