| Great pub, usually pop in here on the way to the Valley, good ales, service and never any hassle in here, not to far from the ground 20-25 min walk. carterse9 - 4 Jan 2010 17:12 |
| Two room pub. That is, two distinct bars with separate entrances. Four beers on: Directors, Best, Doom Bar and Coaster. There's a front courtyard and a decent rear back garden. It's a well kept place, refurbished in the last year or so, but it lacks character. The side bar is a featureless extension of sorts. Feels a bit like a school gym or village hall or something. The layout of the tables and chairs in neat rows didn't help the feel of lack of character and imagination. The beer was served in good condition. There is a folk club every Tuesday. Food is served lunchtimes until 3.00. Sunday lunch is advertised at £4.95. Bargain! An OK place which I wouldn't mind drinking in, but would rather push on for somewhere more interesting.

| I visited for the first time last week on the way to football; the Standard had run out of ales again. Twice out of 2 visits this football season, so we wandered around the corner. We more than pleasantly surprised, 6 ales on offer, of those we tried they were all well kept. This must be one of the last proper pubs in the area with 2 bars which have the added bonus of being clean and not with sawdust on the floor. Worth a visit as better than the Sun in the Sands and has beer so obviously better than the Standard. davetheaddick - 26 Sep 2008 09:50 |
| Went back to my local for the first time since Sept 07 review below. Much improved. The place has obviously been tarted up and they even do some food now. Folk night was quite popular. Relaxed atmosphere. Ale fine, staff polite. This pub comes into its own in the summer anyway but good to see it busy. And if the description in my earlier review appeals to you, suggest you go round the corner to the Sun in the Sands. pubinspector - 23 Jul 2008 16:59 |
| You don't gat many pubs as good as this one in SE London. there is no screaming jukebox, or TV blaring. The regulars are a civilised bunch of people. the landlord Peter is a decent sort, and his staff are very friendly and curteous.There are fantastic bands on every Saturday night and a Folk Club in the bar on Tuesdays. There is also a public bar - though I haven't ventured in there yet! There's also plenty of room for smokers, as well as the tables outside the front, there is also a wonderful garden area at the back. ...I'm off for a pint! folkman - 17 May 2008 16:25 |
