Available for festive dining and exclusive hire, The Hound offers a traditional Christmas atmosphere, great food, and intimate but spacious interiors. Put simply, it’s the best of both worlds. Found just minutes from Turnham Green Station, The Hound is a modern coaching inn set inside a former Victorian police station. It's the third collaboration between Ardent Pub Group and Dominic Jacobs, joining The Cadogan Arms in Chelsea and The George in Fitzrovia.
The Front Room, an inviting reception area with a burning log fire, seems made for festive drinks and canape receptions with up to 40 guests. Think red leather seating, panelled walls, and carpets to create a more cosy feel. The Green Room, found tucked away towards the end of the pub, is more modern in comparison. With sage green walls, dark wood chairs, and banquette seating, it’s a great spot for feeding the merrymakers. Plus, you can request a DJ or make use of a high-definition projector if you’re handing out end-of-year awards.
Alternatively, if you’re looking to host a more intimate Christmas party at The Hound, the private dining room, also known as ‘The Clink’, comes with all the intimate charm you could wish for. With dark green walls and a long banquet-style table seating 18, it was formerly made up of three prison cells, the exposed brick ceilings of which have been preserved. All spaces, including The Courtyard, which is covered by a retractable glass roof, can be hired out collectively to accommodate up to 180 guests.
Christmas party food at The Hound takes the form of set feasting menus. So picture lamb Wellington, roast cuts and all your favourite trimmings. Plus, guests can expect pub pints (including some of the best Guinness in London), alongside more elegant wines from around the world.
