The best pub I have been into in years! Crikey where to start? Excellent ales good bar staff and a fine ambience. Love the lack of lager and its attendant louts!!

After years of being a scruffy hole that I'd got so used to ignoring on a daily basis I'd almost forgotten it existed, this is now quite probably the best pub in Twickenham. And it's my local! Hooray! (sort of)

Plus points: A vast, ever-changing selection of excellently kept real ales at a mere £3/pint and a great selection of proper ciders, all of which you can try before you buy. Lovely, obliging bar staff who contribute tremendously to the warm, friendly atmosphere. Delicious food including the mouth-watering made-to-order pies and some mighty fine sausages. Pleasant decor with roaring fires, non-intrusive classic music (on vinyl, no less) and a huge garden with several comfy sofas - perfect for whiling away a summer's afternoon with friends. Despite it always being busy, I've never waited long to be served thanks to the attentive bar staff, and service is always with a smile. The Tuesday jamming band is fab and not in the least bit loud like bands tend to be in pubs.

Negatives: It is far too close to my house. And they need more indoor seating because it's so popular (and rightly so) - the ONLY reason I haven't given it 10/10.

It's an amazing transformation at a time when so many pubs are going out of business. Given that it's 'tucked away' a mile or so from Twickenham town centre, it's always busy - a perfect example of how to do a pub right. Keep up the excellent work Sussex - and I'll see you for a few quality ales later on this evening!

What a truly excellent pub! The only thing slightly wrong with it is it gets a bit crowded and noisy - because it's so popular.

A great selection of unusual beers - perhaps six or seven I've never tried before - and some ciders.

The staff are pleasant.

Prices are low - £3 or so.

And they play music from 60s and 70s album bands like Cream - not too loud, but just loud enough so someone every so often says "I remember this - what's it called?"

Just a great pub. Keep it up!

Lovely place, Twelve ales at £3 a pint, cider at £3.20 PLUS every tenth one free. Smiling bar staff who offer you a choice of a jug or a glass. Shame it's tucked away, but well worth a visit.
