Located on the edge of Keston Common, this large pub is popular with locals and visitors alike. Under new management since June 2025, this venue is strongly engaged with the local community.

Inside, there is a sizeable bar area with a long L-shaped wooden bar counter plus a fireplace and TV screen at one end. The decor is modern yet traditional with white ceiling, tiled flooring and patterned carpet. Various seating is present with additional tables on a mezzanine, which are given over to dining. Further seating is available at the rear, which leads onto the veranda.

There is a large area out front with plenty of table sets, which is popular in warmer weather. In addition, there is a back garden with patio and children's play area and which also contains a tea room which is available for meetings and other functions.

The pub was acquired by Shepherd Neame from Enterprise in 2016.

Dogs are welcome, as are cyclists and walkers (the London LOOP trail is close by).

A time-honoured tradition (for over 60 years) is for the local Ravensbourne Morris Men to perform outside on Boxing Day.

Note that opening times vary according to the time of year: Hours displayed are for March to October (as are food service times) but may be subject to change and could close early if quiet.
