| Rocked in here on Saturday night after a day out in the sun to celebrate our mates engagement. Brilliant pub. Service was quick, ales are great (loved the selection of summer golden ales on offer but i think they got lucky with the weather) and the ladies polished of a fair few bottle of the house white which they remarked as pleasant. A special mention to the gents behind the bar who served us jaegar bombs non stop for 45 minutes. They served us with good grace despite our drunken heckling and still managed to keep an eye on their other punters. Hopefully they'll welcome us back as I plan to have a big one coming up to xmas. Great pub and I cant recommend it highly enough. Cheers for the shots! oddjobs - 4 Oct 2011 17:15 |
| Easily the most genuine pub in Clapham. I go there regularly as it's the only place to get a great pint of bitter, and always has something different on tap. Great atmosphere and great staff. For example, how many other pubs do you know that give free dog treats out to dog owners? Don't believe the negative review below this, a quick click-through will show you that it is almost certainly from one of the landlord's bitter old business partners - funny how both their pubs get "outstanding" reviews from this poster. Just look at the 74 other positive reviews - that will tell you everything!!! claphambarman - 3 Oct 2011 17:18 |
| A bizarre oxymoron of a pub. A lovely looking Victorian nay Georgian pub from the outside. Inside it is characterless but for the Landlord Dave, sadly one one swallow doesn't make a summer. The comments here are bizarre if only for the fact that I have pals who go here quite regularly due to the fact they won't live without Lambeth air strapped to their backs in tanks. The staff with the exception of Dave are generally hopeless, and Dave, who has been reminded of this on numerous occasions seems incapable of providing anything but jellyfish managerial guidance. He's too nice to a fault. It has the jump on others in the area for location but Green King beer all tastes the same these days, so perhaps lager is the way forward. Hopefully with support locally it will survive the rigours or recession. huntsbeer - 13 Sep 2011 00:28 |
| Dropped by last weekend, and pleased to say it is still an excellent pub. Dave (the landlord) is still as charming as ever. Wonderful beer and atmosphere - what more could you want? nigelrowe - 23 May 2011 15:53 |
| Being a man in the Clapham omnibus for several years I discovered this gem of a pub back in 2006 and I've never looked back. Great range of ales which are constantly changing from your regulars such as Abbot to guest ales such as Yorkshire Terrier (silly name for an ale but a lovely pint). They also have a decent lager selection from San Miguel to Peroni, good range of bottled lagers and an eclectic and surprisingly good wine list. Staff are attentive and more importantly quick! Music is background to say the least. The whole vibe of the place is to encourage conversation and interaction. Their's some great art work on the walls which depict scenes of Clapham from the last century or so. Brilliant bunch of regulars inhabit the place and there is nothing better than just chilling with a pint and listening to their inane conversation. Great, great pub! Wolfdjb - 1 Feb 2011 17:58 |
