Popped in just before 10 looking for a pool table to kill an hour as this place is notoriously dead in the week. Our expectations were realised, we were the only people in the place, surprising for such a central location. The one barmaid there couldn't quite contain her disappointment that she had to get up off her seat to serve us. At 10.45 we got "d'ya want another drink" to which we responded no thanks - music off, lights at the bar off, telly's off, barmaid gone. As quick as that. With poor bar staff, zilch atmosphere and a crappy expensive selection every time I have unfortunately frequented this pub it seems like the management and Greene King have thrown in the towel.

Consistently good ale. Always an upbeat and warm welcome from the landlord, staff and the friendly pub dog. Unfortunately only able to visit a few times a year but always have a great time. Best pub in Kingston.

Exceptional pub. All the Titanic Ales were on peak form (the plum porter and iceberg especially) plus there were various other ales from different breweries available. The care and consideration for the customer is faultless - from the excellent condition of the beer to the banter from the fella doing the burgers (in the pouring rain I hasten to add) even the cleanliness of the toilets all made for a great evening. Me and my old man travel the country following Wimbledon and rarely come across a pub that makes such an effort - a real gem and a real credit to the pleasant locals, staff and the extremely friendly & talkative manager Bob (top man). Such a shame it looks like the Vale are going up and we won't be able to go next year! 10/10.
