The Woodman, Carshalton

The Woodman has been taken over by a lovely mother and daughter team who have really carved out their mark. You get more than generous portions of the great home cooked food (try the chilli!)and the bar staff are (still) really friendly and where else do you get that view of the ponds? I was there at the weekend and noticed the local council are imposing restrictions on their liscensing because it used to be the village butchers!! Evidently no other pub on the high street has restrictions so I signed their petition. They have a a brilliant kareoke night and I've seen great bands there- for me it's the best pub in the village.
