I think this pub has been taken over recently. The beer has come down a little in price, about 20p a pint but it makes a difference. I was in here on a big darts night the other week and then went back at the weekend. I was impressed by how friendly and mixed the staff and punters were. The back terrace and patio were full of happy smokers and the pride was pretty well kept.
I'd recommend it if you like a proper pub.

Its just a local. Its also just about the only real local left in the area. Not a destination pub, but a nice enough place for a beer after work, and it can be quite busy early in the evening when people coming home from work bump into those having a pint before a night out. It can be very quiet later in the evening unless there is a darts match, or pool, or a party - though there is usually at least one of each every week or so. Weekends very variable. Friday is usually lively, Saturday can be dead. When the local teenagers are feeling flush they are off up town, when they are broke they can be laughing ang giggling round the pool table here.

Beer includes well-kept London Pride and prices are about average for the area - cheaper than the teenage lager sheds in the High Street, more expensive than Wetherspoons (which has taken some of the older and sadder trade from the Rising Sun). A good pub for smokers as there are French windows out to a back terrace and a largish garden so you can have a fag without having to stand in the street or abandon your mates.

HaHA I was in here on Saturday, bad move.

The poster in the window says it all. Please bring your Friends and tell them to bring there friends, transplant to English (we have made a mistake putting the beer up so much in one go)now we have no customers

Irish Eyes...... Read my comment? I too was having a bit of a go at the unfavorable comments!! It was someone else who talked about the price of Fosters (wouldn't drink it if it was free). A small constructive complaint.... I am all for music but not so loud that your glass rattles.
