I've been going to this pub for about 35 years. Every Boxing day before the King George, if nothing else. It's always been comfortably run-down and friendly.

Called in Jan 15th (delayed King George from Boxing Day) and that's changed now. New management (Alison) in August 2010, apparently, and it's been done up (in a kind of 'Ikea Pine' style) and it's still friendly.

Popped in to this community local, and found a new licensee and pub nicely refurbished. Real ales in good condition included Hook Norton Hooky Dark and Brakspear Bitter. Worth a visit

oh my god how sad is that fella to actually go on here on boxing day and post that comment about this pub. lmao!!

i was there on boxing day after kempton racing and it was a good atmosphere.

i ask one of the bar staff about why there was no chairs on one side of the pub and they said it was coz it gets busy with locals and people from kempton racing on boxing day so they had taken out to make space as the pub is quite small.

i got served very quickly even thou it was busy, and it was a warm pub. i went to 2 pubs down the river in sunbury on boxing day aswell who were far more expensive than this one! i definatly preferred this pub, cheaper and the bar staff were much nicer.

Unbelievable how a pub in such a decent location could be so grossly unfit for purpose. I've seen scout huts with more ambience, better decor and a good deal more furniture. Devoid of charm, this is a place for utility drinking.
But what really annoyed me was how such a dog of a pub can justify £3.10 for a pint of London Pride. Presumably the management thinks it can fleece the (mug)punters who pass by on their way to the big Boxing Day meeting at Kempton Park because chances are they won't be returning. How right they are.

Oh my lord! I do not know what to say. This could be miles better. The staff were friendly but it was like walking into an episode of shameless. The decor is mental and it smells like a loo. The place could be thriving as its got a good location. it needs a lift and some organised seating thats for sure.
