Small back-street community free house built in 1860 and retaining many period features. The decorations and paraphernalia adorning the walls leave you in no doubt that the publican is a beer-enthusiast. Worth noticing are the four bespoke turned wooden handles on the hand-pumps and the unusual painted pub sign. There is a log-burning stove, dart board and a small secluded rear patio. Carpeting and comfortable seating create a cosy atmosphere. Occasional Quiz and music nights take place. The guest beer comes from a wide range of independent brewers across the UK and changes frequently. Sunday Cheeseboard and cheese or ham rolls available. The digital jukebox-box complements the convivial atmosphere on many evenings. The web site is kept up to date with what is being served and up-coming, together with pump-clip images and tasting notes. CAMRA Branch Pub of the Year for 2023 and runner-up for the Greater London Regional Pub of the Year 2017/18.
