It looks a very attractive building from the outside but inside is completely lacking in atmosphere. Caters mainly to the Sunday Lunch Brigade. Lots of chavvy oiks swearing at each other. The bar staff are ignorant and rude. Worst pub in the area.

I finally managed to have a couple of beers in here today; maybe it is only closed on Monday lunchtimes!

The barman was cleaning when I walked in and it took him a couple of minutes to spot me, but when he did he rushed over and served me quickly with a please and thank you. Landlord, Marlow Rebellion Smuggler, Hoegarden, Heineken, Amstel, Staropramen, Guinness and Addlestone cider were all available and a pint of Amstel was £3.20.

As mentioned before the beer garden is a little different, but the place settings and large wine glasses set on most of the tables let the gastro cat out of the bag.

The Penny Flyer was never a great pub, but as stevos has mentioned, this maybe a step too far in the other direction.

I’ve not been in here for about 10 years, when it was the Penny Flyer. I was hoping to pop in this afternoon (13:00) for a couple of cheeky pints, but alas it was closed and had no signs of opening during my lunch break. I did a quick sweep of the outside to see if I could find some opening times, but there were none.

Whilst I was looking I caught the eye of someone inside who quickly turned away, maybe they were robbing the place.

Couldn't really make up my mind on this one - the inside was quite open-plan and lacked atmosphere.

Range of ale was decent but unimaginative (although it was served well enough).

Quite enjoyed the concrete jungle beer garden - it's a bit different and was a nice place to sup my beer in the sunshine. So marks there.

I'd say it was worth stopping off for, but not necessarily going out of the way to visit.

nice place, good food and service but too overpriced to be a regular haunt.
