The historic Ostrich Inn Colnbrook, Heathrow, dates back 900 years to 1106–supposedly the third oldest inn in England. With bar, restaurant, private dining areas and function space as well as bedrooms it caters to a range of guest requirements and modern expectations.
Today you can enjoy honest, tasty pub food, fresh local ingredients, in relaxed and comfortable surroundings, yet only a stones throw from Heathrow Airport and main transport links. Serving wine by the glass or bottle and a choice of real ales.
Exterior exhibits a wonky timbered facade, but lots of care and attention has been spent bringing this former coaching inn up to date, expect dark slate floors, open fireplace, brilliant jewel colours & stained glass, as well as sand-blasted beams & a cobbled courtyard.
If you are looking for a pub while staying near to Heathrow Airport, or simply because you are in business in the Heathrow area, we look forward to welcoming you. We're open 7 days a week and

    Plain pub food, nothing special. Booked a table for the restaurant, but was put in the bar area. Overpriced for what it was, and a very boring small menu of very basic pub food. Service was nice, no complaints about the staff. I wouldn't recommend to anyone, there are many better pub menus this time of year elsewhere.

    I booked this venue for our company's executive team and Board members, prior to their annual board meeting. I didn't attend personally, but feedback from my manager was excellent. Food was superb and the staff very friendly and accommodating. We will be booking again for the next meeting.

    We were a party of 8 and arrived before our booking but we were able to be seated without any problem. Sunday roast was very good and value for money. Service was excellent and never felt rushed. Would recommend.

    Was not disappointed at all , in fact exceeded my expectations. On every level the service was brilliant. Made to feel very welcome , staff really engaging and lovely . Food amazing and great value for money. As a group of 4 we were all impressed. We will definitely be back. Oh and mustn’t forgot free car park around the back without having to search for parking or parking meters was the icing on the cake. Thanks for a smashing evening

    We were looking for a place to have lunch near Heathrow airport. We wanted somewhere with a nice authentic atmosphere and good food, without it being fussy or too expensive. The Ostrich Inn was perfect. Loved the ambience. Very good food - although we only had the lunch menu.
