The Woodlands Tavern is a family-run community local in Isleworth with a games room pool table.

The pool setup

Pool lives in the games room rather than a dedicated hall, sharing the space with darts, a jukebox and quiz machines. Expect a standard pub table you play frame by frame, not a booked-by-the-hour hire. As a London Elite Pool League member pub it draws competitive players on league nights, so the table can be busy and the play decent. If you just want a casual game, an off-peak afternoon or early evening is your best bet for getting on the table without waiting behind a match.

Good to know

It is a walk-in local, so there is no booking and no door policy beyond the usual. The pub is open from 11:00am every day, through to midnight Sunday to Thursday and 1:00am on Friday and Saturday. Alongside pool you get darts, big screens for live sport, a jukebox, free WiFi and home-cooked food. The Tuesday quiz runs from 8.30pm and there are occasional open mic nights with local bands. There is a large beer garden and patio for warmer days.
