Lovely friendly local pub with good food and a laid back lounge feel. Pool table, comfy seating and great music. This was my first visit but it already feels like a home from home and we plan to come back soon.

The food is now back on the menu folks!

Had brunch this morning, it was goooooodddddddd!! Just the thing for a hangover and booked for Sunday lunch tomorrow.

Duncan and Abby are great chefs, long may it last!!

The Earl has re-opened

Its bigger (they now have a little bit of a beer garden in back) and better than ever. There are loads of new wines and spirits whilst they still have the real ales which I like.

The Quiz night is back on Wednesday nights and there have been a few barbecue's and parties since it re-opened.

I spoke to the new landlords and they are going to be starting food soon, so watch this space.

After many months closed it is fab to see the Earl open once again. Quality local, new management doing a great job - lets hope the locals support it given its location off the beaten track. Sunday roasts are welcomed although variable.

Really glad to see this place is back open and the new management seem like they've got some good ideas. The landlord is a chef so there should be a good menu coming up.

I've just moved from Streatham and this is the thing I will miss the most. And quite possibly the only thing.

Looks good - dark wood, green inside. Tasty pint of Pride. Feels as though it should be gastro, but only snacks on the menu. There is a pool table, which would usually be a bad thing, but it's sectioned off from the rest of the pub. Very quiet when we were there.

This is my local and i'm over the moon is back open, pool table is back and a fruit machine and now I don't need to work up to the main road to drink warm flat beer as the pint I had was reasonably priced and served perfectly - look forward to the entertainment that the manager was informing me would be happening closer to Christmas!!

Pleased to see that the Ferrers is open again.

Very little change, but the new managment hope to restore the custom.

New pool table & dart board.

Fullers London Pride as Guest beer.

Quiz night (Wednesday) to return.

Due to re-open towards end of July.

The Earl Ferrers is closed for the time being( since Jan 2007). Plans are afoot for a new tenant to take over.Rumours are that a good spread of real ale should be on offer.

Apart from being a bit quiet on a Saturday night, i love this pub! Seperated in two - lounge and pool room - it allows you to play pool without hitting too many people with the cue. Great music, shame there are no real ales. I live this pub and i will certainly be going back. Maybe on quiz night!

Popped in here randomly on a Saturday night and was very impressed. It's got a good interior, a bit of charm and despite being quiet was a pleasant place to have a drink.

The pool table is in it's own small room which is also nice.

Have to agree with thehonesttruth and BillyBhoy1888. Shame about no real ales but still a good pub.

Came here a couple of nights ago for a quiet drink with the lady. And that's exactly what we got. The pub has wisely done away with the 'ABV' bar side of things, its sympathetically done out inside with really nice decor. No real ale though, and I can see why, there just aren't enough people coming to this pub. So come and have a drink here, what they do have is most of the lagers you are likely to encounter in any pub, some keg ales (Courage Best, John Smith's), nice wine, you know, the usual.

Gave up serving food - pity it's gone downhill - new manager and owner - still very clean but terribly slow service - barman wasn't sober serving us!

Nice pub with a good, friendly atmosphere. Welcoming to all. Quiz nights on Wednesdays. Streatham's best kept secret. No real ale but what they do have is well kept.

Nice friendly pub with a nice atmosphere. Recommended.

went there for the first time a month ago after finding it on beerintheevening. A great night, the friendliest pub I've been in since I've been in London. Have since been back 3 times and it wasn't a fluke. If you are going for a drink in Streatham go here

Friendly owner (Vanya), staff and locals. Nice and clean and not having that smoke-filled atmosphere. Easily the best pub in South London (and possibly a bit beyond).

Lovely, friendly staff and locals alike. The sort of pub you can walk into alone and still feel comfortable - and chances are you'll end up talking to everyone else by the end of the night anyway!

Super little friendly pub. Equally welcoming to first time visitors and locals alike. The Courage Best is a fine drop - obviously well looked after. Sunday lunches tend to be vfm (especially the big starters). Well worth a visit.

Good local, with an excellent pub quiz, good beer, and great bar staff. A mix of people from grannies and sherry to some good looking boys with Smirnoff Ice.
