One of those 'decorate the walls with the passage of time' pubs, which although quaint, can be give or take depending on your mood...
Was a nice visit on a Saturday afternoon. Bit small but worth a pop in.

A rare find of individuality in the parish of Clapham. A little gloomy in the inside maybe but comfortable enough with Harveys on tap which is always a winner.
As already alluded to, a collection of items that Steptoe would be proud of hang from the ceiling....
But decent enough.
|
Got lots of good memories of this place. Long Saturday afternoons idled away. Gets busy in the evenings.
|
Eccentric pub with some real ale. Infinitely superior to the nearby Sun but not quite as good as Rose and Crown.
|
No this is a pretty decent pub. there are 3 ales on and loads of clutter like artificial legs hanging off the ceiling Brilliant, except it's in Clapham,
|
It's different - and in these days of increasing pub blandness and uniformity, that can't be a bad thing.
I enjoyed looking at all the various paraphernalia - very interesting. We don't all want to drink in All Bar One clone pubs.
Worth visiting if in the area

another nothing to shout about bar set in the old town, the sort of bar that one would not take the walk across the common to visit, dark dingy interior, as described earlier all sorts of paraphernalia hanging from the dusty ceiling,gives one the feeling of being on the set of Steptoe and son, i mean a rickshaw dangling precariously above ones head, why?.
Hoegaarden was OK once we raised the bar girl from our side of the bar and out of her daily mirror.
to sum up, a pub to turn into if you are passing but don't wear the leather out of your shoes to visit.

Not a bad old fashioned boozer its worth having a couple of beers once in a while.
|
Slightly bonkers looking pub. Always very busy, but worth going into.
|
Been going to this pub off and on for many a year,still the same old interior ,beer ok though.Trendy enough for this part of Old Town.Will always come back.

It was good. Rubbish exterior interesting nick nack interior easy to get served. Good stuff on the pumps too. small.
|
Now known as the POW POW POW, they seem to have refurbished the sign outside but it still has all the tack on the walls and ceiling. Very quirky. Definitely worth a visit.
|
Weird pub - very different, what with all the paraphernalia hanging from the ceiling.
Unique - well worth visiting just for its curiousity value
As a previous contributor rightly says " none of this All Bar One....( etc) " mallarkey
|
My visit was very disapointing. very unfriendly bar staff, the pub was dirty and dusty. This pubs need a refurbishment and new bar staff. Its so 60's and could be a gem of a place if it was updated with care

As a pub should be - unique. None of this All bar one/Oneals/wooden mock up malarki.
Good place to sit for a pint with mates that turns into 3or4.
Fun decor too.

One of the weirdest pubs you'll ever go to. Bikes, Inflatables and typewriters hanging from the ceiling, Roy Of The Rovers on the door to the gents. Well worth a visit.
