This was my favourite new pub of the day yesterday. The interior is large and a little eccentric. The front bar is larger than most pubs. But there are two further rooms beyond, one with a pool table. There is also an outdoor drinking area at the rear. In the front bar, there are plate and tankard collections along with antelope heads. The furniture is an eclectic mix, including worn bar stools, sofas, armchairs and crooked tables. There are candles on the bar and on tables, which help to emphasise a gothic feel. Beers were Saltaire Hazelnut Coffee Porter & Raspberry Blonde, Purity Ubu, Trumans Runner, Pin Up Natural Blonde & Adnams Broadside. Lilleys Crazy Goat cider & perry blend was also on handpump with Aspalls & Hogans also available. A blackboard advertised that Adnams Ghost Ship, Thwaites Wainwright & Brewdog Trashy Blonde were coming soon. Despite the good drinks selection, the pub seems very focussed on food. Items on the menu were from the 'posher' end of the spectrum with dishes such as chorizo & purple sprouted broccoli omelette served with organic bread. Service was pleasant. A nice pub, if not a little eccentric.

As a venue this is much improved from it's Jack Beards days. Have had a drink here a few times and it's good for beer and wine but ate there last night and had a very disappointing meal. Strange ingredient selections and very badly cooked. Had to send some of it back for being burnt and gave up with the rest as we were too hungry to keep complaining. It's trying to be something that the chef clearly isn't capable of. Wouldn't eat there again.

In here on Tuesday for a CAMRA meeting with the Antic people. Three Adnams beers - Lighthouse, Gunhill and Ghost Ship plus Purity Pure Ubu, Pin Up (Harwich Town) Natural Blonde and Williams Red. Also a cider/perry blend on handpump. Both the Williams and the Pin Up were £2.50 and in good condition. Larger than it looks, pub part at front leads through to an eating room then a big room to the left with a large screen. Very good.

Liked it a lot, and the comment about successful gastro/proper pub below is fair, although my Adnams Lighthouse was a bit average. I really like the old dining room, far more interesting that the standard Youngs decor, for instance. Staff pleasant.

I have recentley moved to the area and found two very nice pubs in Tooting, The selkirk and the Antelope. if i was to reccomend a pint in the area it would have to be one of these.The antelope is a more trendy high street boozer with slightley more up market food, lovely place the only off putting thing was the strange chap standing outside just staring into the pub, not their fault i dont suppose. they have a great selection of ales so it suits me.

The Selkirk i found had very welcoming staff and quite cool back ground music, but i am really looking forward to a couple of afternoon pints in the beer garden they have. the food just seems like it is nice honest grub, and as a NHS worker they give me 10%.

i am looking forward to drinking in both of these boozers
