Hampshire Hog

Hampshire Hog, King Street, Hammersmith

The Hampshire Hog is a pub at 227 King Street, Hammersmith, London.

It was first licensed in the 17th century as the Hogs, a name based on that of the members of the Royal Hampshire Regiment. The current building was owned by Sich's Chiswick Brewery, and they rebuilt it in 1883.[1] The road running along the west side is Hampshire Hog Lane, and 17th century Hampshire House and Hampshire Cottage, both since demolished, were close by.[2]

In 2012, the owners had previously run the Engineer in Primrose Hill, and were running the Hampshire Hog as a gastropub.[3][4]
