I live about 100 yards down the road from this pub, but pretty much stopped going here about 2 years ago (preferring the nearby Duke of Cambridge and Prince of Wales instead) as it seemed to have become a bit uncared for.
But as other reviewers have mentioned, it's been under new ownership for the past 18 months or so, and it's a completely different pub - always busy with a good atmosphere, full of locals, ale in top nick, live entertainment on Fridays, and a roaring coal fire in the middle. The new owners are great fun too, and know all the regulars well.
If I was being really picky, then the food is pretty standard pub fare (ie, but still good if you just want fish & chips), but it's great to have my local being my first choice pub again.

Now under new management again. The new couple are very firnedly and welcoming and appear to be steering this pub back in the right direction. Food has definitely improved and there are more good value pub fare dishes on the menu. The Youngs is still in good nick, which is enough to keep me coming back in fairness. Still got a good smoking area with heaters etc. All in all a very good local and hopefully one that wil be on the up again.

Having just recently moved to battersea i was glad when i discorvered this little gem hidden away behind all the usual suspects. The youngs bitter has improved greatly over the last month and is now an exceptional pint.
Looking forward to spending cold winter nights in front of what is an amazing open fire place.
