| A Young’s pub, so the usual ales. I had the Young’s Bitter, which was good, but not cheap at £3.00 a pint. There was the usual pop music playing, but not too loudly. It was very quiet on a weekday lunchtime, with only yours truly plus three apparent locals in the pub – nobody talking, all lost in their world of the racing pages – and a couple in the beer garden. There was a large TV in the corner, but switched off. It is nicely carpeted throughout, with normal tables and chairs – but with some of the chair coverings having seen better days. I doubt whether much has changed in here in the last 50 years. Much the better for it, in my opinion. So, it’s a real pub then. Even if there’s nothing special about this pub – although you could say its ordinariness is quite special – it does have a welcoming feel about it, and I would be delighted to drop in for another pint if I was in the area.

| What can I say? It's a decent boozer, nice drop of Youngs but a little bit tatty if you know what I mean. Needs a little spruce, a little bit of money spent on the interior and it'll be right up there. Bar staff and manager were great, real personalities and just what we need in this age of the mindless, thumb in the pint Australian barman. I'm giving it a good mark and i'm not even going to knock any points off for a dog trying to bite me outside. Thumbs Up, London Calling. London_Calling - 11 Feb 2009 17:17 |
| Not a bad pub, although charging gastropub prices for pints when it is basically an orthodox London boozer was a little bit off. Apart from being on the pricey side, it's okay. shoegazer - 17 Jul 2008 12:44 |
| Spent a happy Sunday afternoon in their garden: beer was excellent, landlord was very friendly and weather was gorgeous. Couldn't ask for more in a pub! tpw101 - 12 May 2008 09:04 |
| We went in here after the Youngs AGM - still the best pint of Youngs anywhere (and about the only pub now where I will drink the Youngs particularly since Charles Wells' involvement in Youngs' brewing process). My preference is also for a tenanted pub rather than a managed pub (especially as most of the good managers that I knew at Youngs pubs have left the company). zeitlin - 13 Jul 2007 11:05 |
