The "Slug and Lettuce" Pub

Slug and Lettuce
474 Fulham Road,
Fulham SW6

......and here is a review from an internet site
The former 'Kings Head' at Walham Green is one of the oldest inns in Fulham.

Opposite Bootsy Brogan's, this is a big place, loud music, bar staff in black vests.

Kronenbourg £2.80/pint - but plastic glasses?
They must expect trouble even at 7pm on a Thursday.

It still has some of the markings of a traditional pub, but with a big screen showing watersports and signs advertising Aussie sports and drinks.

Clientele seems to be young Australians/NZ/South Africans.
I can't imagine how riotous it must get later.

There's a small area of tables outside at the back, and out the front there are tables and there was a stall selling Boerewors sandwiches.

Saturday 29th November 2003
"Been out the Friday and Saturday night this week
It is good fun - big groups of us from the house go
- we all get dressed and catch the tube together to the pub
Last night we went to the "Slug and Lettuce" in Fullham
They are an Aussie chain like Walkabout Group
A really bizzare thing happened though
The place was packed and they were playing some great music,
but then they played "You are the Voice" by John Farnham
The place went off!!!
- every single Aussie in the place knew every single word to that song
and we were all singing as loud as we could!
It was so strange because you don't ever here John Farnham at home anywhere,
but they played it in what is considered to be a cool pub over here
It was quite funny
PS - I found out that the nickname for the Slug and Lettuce is the
Sluts and Legless"!
What do you think of that?
I was very good and only had three beers and wasn't either of those two things!"

Monday 26th January 2004 - Australia Day celebrations!!!
"I slept in until about 11.00am
and then rang Jason for part two of our Australia Day Celebrations
We met at the Fullham "Slug and Lettuce" at 2.30pm
and had a few pints of Fosters and listened to some great music
It was such fun!
About two hours later Greg and Aaron arrived
and then Anthony came down and then Tamara and then Cath and Amira
It was a good crowd there as well
I had a meat pie (YUM!) cause you can't usually get them here
and we shared packets of burger rings and cheezels too
because you can't get them over here either
I got knocked over by the drunk girl at about 9.00pm
and pretty much went straight home from there
I was in bed by 10.00pm
Anyway, it was great fun and Australia Day in London was fantastic
Everyone was so patriotic
and they kept playing "Up there Cazaly" at the Slug on Monday
...everyone was singing and yes, we even got John Farnham again!"
