| I can't make my mind up about this pub. The beer is well kept, if a bit pricy, with a good variety that changes regularly. The food is fine and good value. But the bar staff don't exactly make you feel welcome, and, as others have commented, the place is oddly lacking in atmosphere. I keep going back though, so it must have some charm.

| I'm surprised that the comments about this pub are so positive. I visited a few weeks ago early on a Saturday evening and it was pretty mediocre. They'd run out on two pumps so there was little choice of beer. I give them credit that my third choice was a good pint, but it wasn't enough to compensate for the place not having much atmosphere. Perhaps I caught it on a bad day, or was sitting in the wrong place, so by all means give it a try, but it wasn't for me. hitchinsampler - 2 Dec 2011 23:25 |
| Its a small traditional pub hidden in Southwark but if you're in the area its well worth a try.had a few pints of Dark Age from Celt brewery and must say it was delicious .they have six beers on plus a good choice of lagers . Food menu looks promising too .Can't wait for my next visit beeraddict - 14 Nov 2011 21:16 |
| Great pub for selection of ales available. Not too busy, possibly being a little out of the way, but no suits which makes a change from a lot of pubs in the area at that time of night. Strange selection of furniture looks like they've been around a few second hand furniture shops and picked whatever there was. Good service both when ordering drinks and food, although whilst it was only around 7.30pm they had no steak and ale pies left. Ordered chilli with nachos and cheese instead, very nice, and no complaints from colleagues who had raost beef in a Yorkshire pud and scampi. All 3 meals were around the £7 mark, very good value. Don't remember seeing any women in the place other than the barmaid, not sure why? phill1110 - 24 Oct 2011 13:22 |
