Located on Erskine Road which connects Sutton to St Hellier/Rose Hill. That says it all, Pikey central

Went in here last week and have to say that we wont be going back! The girl behind the bar seemed to be on another planet, she was rather rude and then got the drinks wrong more than once. The pub was full of nasty looking yobs who seemed more interested in looking for a fight than having a drink...its full of fruit flies everywhere - the loo's were rank and everything seemed to be dirty! The bar prices seem to change each time you buy a drink....which arent even cheap!! I recommend the chicken wrap though - the tortillas that come with it are a good alternative to chewing gum being so stale!!
This place is full of underage, football louts - avoid at all costs!!

Had a quiet pint of OKish Abbott at lunchtime. Looks like a quite good pub for the local area, but had a slightly tacky feeling throughout.

I would give up drinking in pubs if this were my local. Nasty and cheap, full of absolute idiots, don't even think of taking a lady here. I cannot see what people get out of drinking in a place like this. Keep walking past.

The idea for car park scene in Fight club found the inspiration from this little boozer....

Luckily i parked my AV round the corner as i just had it cleaned

Formerly my nearest pub, but unless I could sit outside, I went elsewhere. I have overheard some inadvertently hilarious conversations as the neanderthals put the world to right.(Rants against Northerners Scots and Irish taking local`s jobs was the latest- a twist on the usual rascist spiel).

Punch ups are a feature of most Sutton pubs, this one is no worse or better than any other, but it at least does have an attempt at a car park where there seems to be a local rule that these take place.

The Butterchurn is one of the best pubs in the local area. The people are friendly. Good food, Pool table. Oh yea, and the beer that comes out of the taps is very nice and cheap!

I waited patiently to be served whilst the one member of staff was serving and the other was chatting.was totaly ignored and then someone else walked in and they served him. The place was not busy there were two people standing at a long bar! Now, that doesnt surprise me!

Regular punch-ups in the car park.
Overly loud bad karaoke.
OK beer.
OK to Average food.
Amazingly fast turnover of management.

If you havent tried it are you still tempted?

There is little likelihood of anyone who drinks here being able to read and write, let alone post three positive review on the same day. This can be a nice pub, it can be a big-time aggro pit – the trouble is it frequently switches between both without a moment’s warning.

Watch out for spiders' webs (on people's faces that is).

I had probablly the best every pint of IPA ever a few weekes ago in here.

Shame the place was full of chavs and their spawn.

Was below average, but beer has improved of late. Avoid if there is a sporting event on as the place get far too packed and noisy.

Bad points:unloved/neglected beer needs more care. Wider range of ales needed. V.busy when showing footie.
Good points: nice outdoor seating.

Above average pub with below average beer.

An alright pub. Can get too busy when football is on so bare that in mind if there is a game on, but apart from that a nice enough place to get a drink in.
