The reason this pub is empty is because all the regulars have left in droves. Unfortuantely the new management seem to be doing everything you should not do to a lovely friendly pub. These include:

1. Putting up a huge 80s style neon sign with 'Shakers' written on it behind the bar. When asked what the reason for this was, it was claimed the management had intended to sell cocktails. In a local pub. In Brixton.(It has been there for 3 months and there are still no cocktails.)

2. Leaving all the lights on full so it is reminiscent of a hospital waiting room. And then putting candles on the tables.

3. Shifting all the tables around so the pool table is right in front of the big screen and everybody fall over each other when trying to get to the toilets.

4. Not having any beer. In a pub. Honestly, 2 weeks running there was no beer, only lager.

5. No food. Ever.

6. Always giving you beer in the wrong glasses.

I could go on. Last week they advertised the Arsenal Inter game by writing on the chalkboard 'Wenesday football'.

Really is so sad when pubs are run into the ground. Bring back the old Duke!

Went here last night, no Thursday night quiz and despite 2 pool tables, and 2 open fires there were only about 4 people in there.

Nice pub, tonnes of seating, just completely empty.

Under new management this week. They tell me they will be introducing Harveys Sussex Best as well as a new menu and live entertainment so expect a few changes but hopefully nothing that will diminsh the pub's character.

What an amazing find!

I recently moved to the area and being the Yorkshire lass that I am, went straight to the local pub. From the minute I stepped through the door, I felt immediately at home, the bar staff are lovely, ‘the putters’ are great, the first night out there I laughed until my sides hurt…and I haven’t stopped yet!

I really would recommend this place, and you never know you might meet me there!
