Pub in [[Locale Cheam|Cheam]]. Previously owned by [[Category Mitchells And Butlers|Mitchells & Butlers]], it was sold to the Stonegate Pub Company in mid-late 2010 and is now part of their Local Pubs sub-brand. There are a number of separate areas inside, as well as some seating out the front and a fairly big paved beer garden with picnic benches. The decor and atmosphere are fairly traditional. [[Kake]] and [[bob]] visited on a Saturday afternoon in June 2012. Three real ales were on: Wells Father's Day Ale (£2.95/pint), Hammerpot Pale Ale, and Young's Bitter. Aside from differences in the choice of ale, there didn't seem to have been many changes from our previous visit on a Tuesday evening in October 2010. On both visits there were quite a few people in — groups, couples, and even one or two people who seemed to have come on their own to have their dinner there. Music was playing; a reasonably eclectic combination including The Specials, The Who, and various hits from the '80s. A flatscreen was showing the news with subtitles and no sound on our first visit, and the tennis with no sound on our second visit. The presence of a party with a dog (inside, not in the garden) on our second visit suggests dog-friendliness. Food is served from a fairly standard pub menu (until 9pm daily, according to the menu as of June 2012). Notably, they have a cash machine that doesn't charge for withdrawals. They also have free wifi supplied by The Cloud; you have to give an email address and password to register, but there's no verification of the address and when [[Kake]] tried in June 2012 it happily accepted an address previously registered for Cloud wifi in a Wetherspoons. Accessibility: No steps to get in. Step-free to the bar and at least some of the seating once you're in. A shallow ramp to the room at the left of the bar (from which the toilets are accessed). Not sure about access to the beer garden though.
