| This is a fantastic pub!! However the atmosphere is often spoilt by rowdy drunks and indifferent staff. The staff believe they own the pub although it is a W'spoon pub. The food is good, beer excellent and very good value. Avoid the drunks and the confrontation and you will have a good experience. JMCC - 2 May 2008 22:14 |
| Looks like a proper pub, not a Spoons, if you get my meanning. Particularly untidy and 80s style Spoons styling add to the appeal for me. Very good real ale from the Beer Fest, though you'd think it a lager stronghold. Worth a trip out. mtaylor40 - 11 Apr 2008 22:59 |
| Visited this pub from 1130 until 1700. I haven't been here for at least 3 years. It is still a good place to have a drink probably because it has always been a pub. Not a bad atmosphere. There were a number of real ales available from Itchen Valley, 3 Rivers and Weltons. One from 3 Rivers, with a really stupid name, like 'Muggy Figgy etc' was a great pint at 7.2% ABV. There was also a beer from Weltons at 2.8%ABV which the duty manager said did not sell very well. I can imagine that. From my distant memory, and we are going back sometime, it used to be illegal to sell beer below 3%ABV!!!!! The staff and service were good. The food was provided very quickly and there were decent portions. Without a doubt I would definitely go back again. The only aspect I did not like about the pub were the gents' toilets - they smelt. wyndham - 2 Feb 2008 19:29 |
| Wetherspoons with a bit of soul, thanks in part to the local streatham society, I hear. Even managed to get rid of the 'Moon on the Water' rebranded name. Pretty big place, but rambling with discrete areas, so it feels quite intimate and comfy. Had a look at an old ordinance survey map from the mid 1800's, and asides from fields, this was the only building on this intersection. I'd like to know more about it's history. Anyway, the beer is good, food resonably decent. Mixed clientel: young, old, working class, those who've stepped on the local property ladder, old west indian geezers (always a plus). Does have it's share of slurring drunken oldtimers with no teeth and stained t-shirts. rachaelov - 23 Dec 2007 12:35 |
