Pubs near Craven Cottage

Temperance

Good for away groups using the Putney Bridge side · a proper meal before kick-off

This is the clearest currently verified away-supporter pub in the immediate Putney Bridge cluster. The venue itself says that on Craven Cottage matchdays it hosts the away team, and it serves a full pub-food menu with extensive sports-screen coverage.

Expect large sports pub · away-supporter hub · screen heavy

Before you go Children are normally welcome and a kids' menu is available, but this is an away-supporter matchday pub and can be very busy. No current source located states a blanket away-colours policy, so colours remain unknown and fixture-specific door conditions should still be checked.

The Eight Bells

Good for away supporters wanting a traditional pub near Putney Bridge · early arrival before the pub fills

The Eight Bells remains one of the most consistently evidenced visiting-supporter pubs for Fulham away days. CAMRA confirms that it is open, serves lunch and evening meals and can become very busy on football matchdays. Tottenham's February 2026 visiting guide included it among pubs often used by visiting supporters, while a September 2026 Fulham supporter thread described it as a designated away-supporters pub.

Expect traditional neighbourhood pub · compact · very busy on matchdays

Before you go It is a relatively compact pub and matchday crowding is repeatedly noted. The away role is strongly supported, but no current official venue statement on away colours or all-fixture admission was found, so access is recorded as 'usually' rather than guaranteed.

The King's Arms

Good for away supporters wanting a less single-purpose alternative to the busiest away pub · families wanting documented facilities

The King's Arms is a strong all-round candidate in the Putney Bridge cluster. Its current official site confirms food, live sport, a courtyard and family facilities including high chairs, buggy space and baby changing.

Expect sports pub · relaxed · family friendly

Before you go The evidence supports regular away use, but the published visiting-club guidance is fixture-specific rather than a permanent admission guarantee. No current away-colours rule was found.

The Crabtree

Good for Hammersmith arrivals · riverside pint

The best Hammersmith-side option. It sits directly on the Thames, is repeatedly listed as away-friendly and gives travelling fans a proper riverside pub meal before the short walk to Craven Cottage.

Expect riverside · mixed support · food led

Before you go It is mixed rather than away-only and can be busy with home support too. No current football-colours rule is published.

Food & drink

Seasonal pub dining and a Crabshack barbecue that operates in suitable spring and summer weather.

The Rocket

Good for away supporters arriving in Putney · budget-conscious food and drink

The Rocket gives visiting supporters a practical Putney-side alternative when the Fulham High Street pubs are busy. The current Wetherspoon page confirms it is open with food ordering, TV screens and licensed outdoor space.

Expect riverside Wetherspoon · large casual option · practical Putney base

Before you go It is across the river in Putney rather than beside Craven Cottage, so it suits supporters happy to base themselves south of the Thames before heading to the ground. No current source found confirms away-colours or child-admission rules specifically for Fulham matchdays.

The Kings Arms

Good for away fans around Putney Bridge · families

The Kings Arms is a well-supported away option with stronger family and food evidence than many matchday pubs. The pub's current site describes a relaxed sports-pub setup, family facilities and a full food offer.

Expect sports-focused pub · relaxed · visiting-supporter friendly

Before you go The pub publishes normal weekly opening and kitchen hours, but fixture-specific booking or admission conditions should still be checked for high-demand games. No current published away-colours rule was found.

Coat & Badge

Good for Putney rail arrivals · supporters wanting a beer garden

Coat & Badge is unusually clear about its Fulham matchday positioning: its current official sports page explicitly says it caters for both home and away fans on Fulham matchdays. It is a larger Putney option with food, extensive live-sport coverage and a substantial garden, making it useful for supporters who prefer to stay south of the river before heading to Craven Cottage.

Expect large beer garden · live sport · mixed home-and-away football crowd

Before you go The venue welcomes both home and away fans rather than operating as an away-only pub. Current published material does not state an away-colours rule or a specific child-admission policy for football matchdays.
