Croydon's only Sheps pub is a short walk from Selhurt station and undoubtedly the pick of the three pubs in the immediate vicinity.
Spitfire and Master Brew were on offer when I visited this week, although the Master Brew I tried didn't taste too good. The staff and locals were very friendly and service was prompt. There appeared to be plenty organised to keep the locals entertained, with karaoke, a quiz and 'happy hours' all advertised, but things were very quiet whilst I was there. There were large screen TV's and what looked like a projector, but I didn't see sport advertised - maybe this is saved for match days.
And yes - there is a preserved crocodile above the bank of seating at the front of the pub.
Not too impressed, but I feel a return trip, perhaps in the summer to check out the beer garden, is needed to fully appreciate the place.

Having just moved to the area, I went for a drink here because it had pretty good reviews. Was really chuffed to find a proper (probably antique) bar billiards table. The landlord was really friendly and even explained the rules. (Which was lucky, as I hadn't played since I was 12!)

Good real ale, reasonable prices even on spirits, friendly staff, pickled eggs and pickled crocodile. (My friends always want to go for a pint here, just to see the fabled pickled crocodile.) Plus a good duke box.

On match days it's crammed just before (aren't all pubs around Selhurst?) so avoid then if you want a quiet pint. It can be a bit too quiet, would be my only negative comment.

Nice quiet pub, even on a Friday night. One ale was off but they didn't offer to change the barrel or turn the pump clip round. Seems to be a place for regulars, and has a bar billiards table, which seem to be harder to find these days. Beer quite drinkable, but perhaps the amount of trade will prevent it from being truly excellent?

Once upon a long ago this was my local. I have never found a pub to rival it's quality beer and atmosphere since.

Enough said.
