I'm not a regular pub goer but when I do I make this top of my list. You miss all the kids in town and people are always friendly in here, always good debates going on in a freindly way. Great local

chav-free environment worth the walk out of the town centre - a booza for the over 50's and retirement set, but also a nice spot for a quiet beer with the girlfriend

the manager is a legend, always good for a laugh, FANTASTICally well kept beer - you'd be hard pressed to find a nicer lager or Guinness, and the ales are A1
Good honest home-cooked food - nice spot for a Sunday roast.

The tables out front are a bit dicey for sitting outside, but it's the best place for smokers IMHO ;o)

worth a regular visit...

Good traditional local pub if you're looking for a quiet drink. Decent beer and very reasonably priced food menu. Dogs welcome.

This is a pub worth visiting. Situated about 1/4 mile from Epsom town centre so no lager louts. Friendly, helpful bar staff. Good choice of real ales- Youngs, Fullers, Black Sheep. Food menu looks good too.

Fantastic little pub, extremely friendly staff and still feels like a pub unlike most other places which are now restaurants. Nice little touches like food put out on the bars on Friday evenings and Sunday lunchtimes. Keep up the good work - Lisa & Austen

A pub that knows exactly what it is - a quiet backstreet locals pub that does good quality home made food - and doesn't try to be anything more. Beer is always well kept. Given that there's a specials board as well as menu with usual pub grub, a little odd that there's no veggie food apparent - until you ask at the bar when the chef will then offer a choice of dishes made to order.

Very small back-street local.

A pub that knows it's place. It's never going to become a chain pub, so sticks to the things it knows best, serving the hardcore of locals decent beer and honest food.

It's never going to win a style award, and the smell of fried food is a little overpowering, but it's pleasant enough if old-fashioned pubs are your bag.

full of grumpy old men. beer overpriced, you age 30 years when you step in the place.
