A fine Victorian building set back slightly from the steep sloped road up Shooters Hill close to its junction with the South Circular. It has a warm and friendly atmosphere complemented by efficient and helpful bar staff. The pub has been refurbished by the Bermondsey Pub Company in Spring 2016 with a new extended kitchen allowing meals to be served. Attractive ancient bar back. 4 handpumps. Now back being run by an independent licensee.
