My wife and I have traveled many times in and out of London and spent the night at hotels on Bath Road next to the airport. Prices are very high for food and drink at the hotels.. We found Three Magpies some yeas ago and make it a stop for pub food and drink. Granted its not five star like some snobs would write in their reviews and they wanted it to be. As a surprise I ordred their large ice cream sunday for my wife. I could not believe the size of it. Give it a try. Its just a short walk from some of the hotels. After eating so much we welcomed to walk back to the hotel. In a few weeks we will be going to London then on our way to Russia the next day. We will make sure to stop at the resturant the night before and enjoy the LOCAL flavor of a pub vs the sterile hotel feel.

We visited the Three Magpies on the 14th of september after a long haul flight.
This pub was recommended to us a couple of years ago by a taxi driver and we said we would give it a go given the chance.
We were given a warm welcome by the staff and we ordered a bar meal, fish and chips, scampi and chips plus extras and dessert and a bottle of wine for about £30.
The food was brought to our table pretty quick, the food was hot & tasty and was served on hot plates.
Also mid way through our meal we were asked if everything was to our liking.
All in all as titled good value for money.
We will return one day.

Without question the worst pub in the world. Disinterested staff with an attitude that doesn't make complaining a sensible option, flat beer from lines last cleaned in 1957 (assuming any of the Dvertised beers are actually available) and a meal I wouldn't give to the dog. If you like microwaved dried out food this is the place for you.

If not then don't go here. Just don't.

My partner and I had the misfortune to venture into this establishment on Sunday 2nd Sept, hoping to have a meal and a drink during our overnight stay at Heathrow. The pub was fairly quiet when we entered but we were told that we would have to wait 30 mins for food. This was not a problem so we ordered and sat down with our drinks. We did notice several other diners waiting for food but assumed they'd arrived around the same time as us. After about 30 mins our starter of loaded nachos arrived. Most of the nachos were broken but we ate it and looked forward to our main courses arriving. There seemed to be very few staff on that night and the barmaids were also waiting on tables. It appeared that the family of one of the staff was also in the pub and a great fuss was being made of a small child by both barmaids, even though the pub was starting to get busy.
A couple of other staff members had finished their shifts and promptly sat down with large meals even though diners were waiting to be served and the barmaids were not coping. Two couples were sitting near to us , the meals for one couple came out and then the other couple waited 30 minutes for theirs. When it came the man had to send his bread back as it was stale.
By now the pub was really filling up and people were told they would have to wait at least an hour for food. A large group of Chinese girls came in and were not sure what to order, the barmaid taking their order was very abrupt and patronising to them.
After an hour and a half our food had still not arrived and so we decided to ask for a refund and go elsewhere.
I have never received such poor service, the staff and management should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves
