The Fox & Pheasant is a small, traditional English pub tucked away on a private mews just around the corner from Chelsea FC's Stamford Bridge ground. Ben Asher has run the establishment for 11 years.

Do you have any real ales on tap?

We do. Green King IPAand Abbot. I've never felt the need for anything else.

What kind of grub do you serve?

We do good English pub food from 12-2.30pm on weekdays.

We also have a barbecue every Friday in our covered garden.

Do you have any live music or entertainment?

No. It waslike that when I first came here and I've never wanted to change it. I think the place benefits from that.

We do have a TV that we put on

match days but we become a bit of a different type of pub when Chelsea are playing at home. We have adartboard which is constantly in use.

Do you have a pub quiz?

We are going to startone in the winter, around about the same time we start lighting the fires.

What kind of people come to your pub?

Ithink we get a very good cross section of customers. Afew older people and the youngstersfrom Chelsea and Westminster Hospital in Fulham Road as well.

On matchdayswe clear the furniture to the side to make room for all the football supporters. We're a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde pub in that respect.
