Inside, there are bare floorboards throughout, with woodpanelled walls in the front (bar) part and exposed brickwork in the back room. The front part is a fairly cosy L-shaped space wrapped around the bar; the back part is more open, and rather less cosy. The bar has two banks of handpumps, with three or four in each.

[[Kake]] and [[Billy]] visited on a Saturday afternoon in December 2008. Beers available were London Pride (£2.80), Chiswick, ESB, and the seasonal London Porter. They were showing football on both the retractable flatscreen situated between the front and back rooms (which points towards the bar) and another screen in the back room, so we retreated to the front leg of the "L", which is sheltered from these. There were perhaps a dozen other customers in, most of whom seemed to be there for the football.

[[John]] visited on a Friday evening in November 2012. There were several beers on tap, but no cider. They had bottles of Bulmers in the fridge (&pound;4.40/pint), and apparently mulled Aspalls was available. Football was showing on the flatscreen TV, but the sound was off so this didn't interfere with conversation. There were quite a few people in, but there were still empty seats available all evening, and it only took a couple of minutes to get served at the bar.
Comment added by Kake: Free wifi (The Cloud - it didn't ask me for a password, though a sign says "ask at the bar for details"). London Pride 2.80. They also have Chiswick, and ESB, and London Porter on handpull. Couple of steps up to get in, another step to get to the back area where the toilets are. Bare floorboards throughout, woodpanelled walls in the front (bar) part, exposed brickwork in the back. Pull-down flatscreen between them, pointing at the bar. They've just pulled it down and switched it on for a 1230 football match.

As of December 2008, a menu advertised the food times as noon-3pm and 6pm-10pm Mon-Thu, noon-10pm Fri-Sat, and noon-8pm Sun (these are also the times given on their website as of September 2012). However, on the Saturday of our visit they weren't doing "proper food" until 1pm, though there was a more restricted brunch menu being served between 10am and 1pm. Brunch items were priced between &pound;2.50-2.75 for sandwiches (bacon, sausage, or fried egg) and &pound;9 for a full English breakfast. [[Kake]] tried the breakfast club sandwich (&pound;6.75), a double-decker effort containing two slices of bacon, two sausages, mushrooms, a fried egg, and fresh tomatoes. It was really rather nice, and sensibly-assembled too. The sausage wasn't a cheap one, the egg was fried just right with a runny enough yolk to be tasty but not messy, and the fresh tomato worked well with the saltiness of the bacon.
Comment added by Kake: Brunch menu 10am-1pm (may only be on Saturdays), then they switch to a bigger menu. I was too hungry to wait! Breakfast club sandwich (6.75) has 2 bacon, 2 sausage, mushrooms, tomato, fried egg. Also eggs (scrambled, poached, or fried) on toast (2.75), full English £9, sandwiches (bacon, sausage, or fried egg, all 2.50 or 2.75).

Free wifi is available (via The Cloud &#8212; this worked fine for [[Kake]] in December 2008, and didn't ask for a password).
