Mark Wrangham

Truly one of my favourite pubs in London. Great beers on offer, lovely setting, and regular events .

Derek Wilson

One of my all time favourite pubs . Come here on a midweek eve and enjoy the vibe. Warm and inviting, with music and comedy often downstairs.

Stuart Chalmers

Lovely pub with friendly staff . Can get busy.

MusicEarthRise .

First Tuesday of every month Music Earth Rise put on a showcase of incredible music talents in an intimate setting . It's guaranteed to be a great night.

Annie

Great indie club nite called 'come out 2nite' on here on occasional Saturdays. And in the main pub they always play superb mix tapes- even heard mojave3's obscure track 'go lady go' here once.

Paul Wright

Wedge shaped corner boozer. Was quiet when we went in, but welcoming. Beer range pretty standard Shepherd Neame stuff.

Sian Bedford

1st Tuesday of every month MusicEarthRise put on amazing gigs showcasing incredible talent and raising money for charity

Brilliant pub in the winter and even better in the summer. If you're going to eat, go for the chilli dish - although the wine, beers and cider are all v.good and v.reasonably priced. - Claire Badhams
