Earlsfield's most-loved local

Good-vibes only, legendary roasts, and welcomes as warm as our just-out-the-oven ovens (yes, seriously legendary). Our locals pull up for proper tastebud-tingling dishes, perfectly-paired wines, and crisp-cold pints poured to perfection (high-five-worthy, every single time).

Our beer garden? Sun-soaked, buzz-filled, and voted one of London’s best on DesignMyNight (cue a smug-but-true moment). One quick drink here and suddenly—”oops”—three hours have vanished, replaced by laughter, chats, and maybe a cheeky 3rd (or 5th) round.

Parties are our love language. And we are kind of… the best at them. Birthdays, engagements, work-dos, garden hangs, or a “why not?” midweek catch-up—we’ve got the space, the know-how, and the just-right atmosphere to make it memorable. Pull up a pew, grab a drink, and let’s make some classic pub-moments happen (you know, the kind everyone talks about afterwards).

The team look forward to welcoming you.

Our Summer Set Menu

Our Summer Set Menu has entered the chat. And it’s bringing British-grown, sun-ripened, chef-swooned-over ingredients to your lunch plans. Two courses for £18, three for £22 – Mon to Fri throughout July & August. (Flavour? Turned all the way up.)

Watch the Women's Rugby World Cup

Wall-to-wall rugby, inside AND out, catch every try, tackle & terrace-side triumph

The Women’s Rugby World Cup is on and so are our big screens, from the pub to the garden (yes, even the beer garden’s getting involved). We’re backing the Red Roses all the way with cold beers, crowd-pleasing plates, and an unbeatable inside-and-outside buzz.

Whether you’re a flag-waving superfan or just after a sun-soaked session (rugby optional, fun non-negotiable), we’ve got you covered (ponchos ready just in case – it is England, after all).

Book your spot now for alfresco cheering, terrace beers, and full-throttle rugby moments under the open sky.

Homegrown British Ingredients, Heroic Flavours

We’re famous for our best-of-British, seasonally-driven, always-fresh ingredients. Think show-stopping, jaw-dropping Sunday roasts (crispy-but-fluffy roasties, rich-as-you-like gravy); or flame-kissed, grill-seared Burger Shack beauties; and those classic, done-right brunches (hello, runny-yolked perfection) paired with a perfectly spiced Bloody Mary. This summer, we’re going full-on flavour-packed and singing about our seasonally-sourced ingredients! Packing our menu with dream-about-them-after salads bursting with colour and citrusy dressings, succulent and swoon-worthy seafood dishes, and puddings that make you regret agreeing to get two spoons for one dessert.

Spritz into Summer

Soak up that golden-hour magic in Earlsfield’s best sun-drenched-and-buzzing pub garden, where every spritz comes with a sip-and-smile guarantee (fingers crossed for the sunshine). Whether you’re diving into a cool-and-fizz-packed Pimms Fizz or toasting with a fruity-and-dessert-like Strawberries and Cream Spritz, we’ve got your summer sipping sorted. The ultimate sidekick? Our forkful-of-summer salads and one-more-bite-worthy light bites that are made for long, lazy, cocktail-clinking afternoons. So, round up your crew, grab the sunniest seat, and let’s get sipping.

What's on in Earlsfield?

Oh, we’ve got loads (and we mean loads) going on! From our wild, full-throttle bank holiday parties to our buzzing, banter-packed pub quiz (it’s a crowd-fave, seriously – don’t say we didn’t warn you), plus more weekend madness than your calendar can handle, there’s always something epic just around the corner. But, let’s be real, nothing gets us more excited than seeing your beautiful, ready-for-fun faces here (because, trust us, you won’t want to miss the absolute mayhem).

So, sneak a peek at what’s coming up, and be sure to book ahead, we get mega-packed, and you won’t want to be left out of the action.

The history of the Leather Bottle

We’re aging like fine wine (over 400 years old, not that we’re bragging or anything). With a seriously legendary history as South West London’s top-tier boozer and the heart-and-soul community hot-spot, we’ve seen it all (and loved every second of it). Plus, Earlsfield is basically a gorgeous little playground, and we’re right in the middle of all the happening action, with so much fun stuff going on around us that we can’t help but shout about our little slice of South West heaven.

Follow us on Instagram

Because why wouldn’t you follow your fave pub? Our socials are who we are (fabulous, as ever). So go on, give us a cheeky scroll and follow our can’t-miss events worth all the FOMO. Our grid is popping-off with all the mouth-wateringly good food, summery spritz glasses and reels that are the pride and joy of our team! We love being the buzzing, beautiful community hub that we are, why would you want to miss out on any of the action?

The Burger Shack

Get a load of our next-level buns. Our Burger Shack uses only the juiciest, top-quality British beef, cooked to perfection (seriously, you’ve never tasted anything like it), and topped with melt-in-your-mouth cheese and crispy bacon sourced from some of the best, farm-to-fork spots in the country.

And don’t worry, we’re not all meat, our deliciously plant-based options mean no one misses out on our patties of perfection.

Dog-friendly

Who let the dogs out?! Oh wait… that was us (and we’re not even sorry). We’re a pup-loving, tail-wagging, treat-giving kind of place, welcoming all good four-legged fluffy friends (and their well-behaved guardians too). Bring ’em down, grab a seat, and ask one of our treat-stashing team for a dog biscuit and a fresh-as-it-gets water bowl.

What people have to say...

If you are new to London and want to have the best fish and chips, come to this place. This place will not only satisfy your taste buds but also your heart. Their hospitality and their luxurious ambience makes you want to visit this place again and again. I have to say that their staff Maria is one of the kindest people I have met. She helped me with understanding the menu and gave me the best spot to sit and enjoy my food adding a good view.

Tanmayee G

Popped in for some food with friends, we found the atmosphere to be lively and inviting. We were served by a really nice lady called Katie who was very friendly, but most importantly she was knowledgeable when we had a few questions about the menu, regarding one of our friends dietary requirements. She was patient and made us feel comfortable and listened to, where some places do not. Food and drinks were delicious, overall definitely worth the 5* review and looking forward to visiting again soon.

H Picton

I had a fantastic Sunday roast at the leather bottle! The service was top-notch, and the food was absolutely delicious. Bella, our server, was incredibly attentive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. I highly recommend the Roost for a delightful dining experience.
