Historical version 24 of Sultan, SW19 1BT (view current version)

Good Beer Guide pub lying roughly between South Wimbledon Station and Colliers Wood Station. Haydons Road Station is the nearest National Rail station, but is not as convenient and has a less frequent service than the Tube.

It serves Hop Back Brewery beers, and indeed is the only pub in London owned by Hop Back. The permanent ales are Hop Back GFB, Summer Lightning and Entire Stout. A fourth rotating ale comes from either Hop Back or Downton Brewery. There are also a selection of bottled Hop Back beers such as Crop Circle.

There is a permanent "happy hour" promotion of cheap draught beer from 6pm until 9pm on Wednesdays. The current price as of August 2013 is £2.70 per pint despite the contrary claims of a long-forgotten chalkboard in the lounge.

It has a paved beer garden with about seven wooden tables, and two separate bars, with separate entrances. The one on the left photo can be reserved, and has a dartboard (darts in a jug on the bar) and two real fires.

They do not do food, though if you ask nicely at the bar they will usually allow you to bring your own in (including ordering in takeaways, if you ask really nicely).
