Entry is into a fairly spacious bar area. Further back is a space with bookcases and banquettes <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/8988768014/ photo]</small> leading on to a dining area ready-set with wine glasses and finally a semi-open kitchen. |
Food served 11am-10pm every day. |

On [[Kake]]'s Friday afternoon visit in October 2008 there were quite a few people in, but it was no trouble finding a table. The clientele were noticeably posher than at the [[Whistle And Flute, SW15 1SQ|Whistle and Flute]] down the road. Quiet piped music was playing (jazz, the peaceful noodly instrumental kind with occasional vocals). When [[Kake]] and [[bob]] visited again on a Monday lunchtime in June 2013, it was fairly empty at 12:15pm aside from two or three other customers. Music was playing again. |
[[Bob]] comments: The refurbishment has turned it into one of the Young's gastropubs by the looks of it from the outside. The last pub I know this happened to lost its GBG entry in the next one. |

There are four handpumps for real ale. In October 2008 they had Young's Bitter, Young's Special, and Bombardier. In June 2013 they had Young's Bitter (£3.54/pint), Young's Special (£3.69/pint), and Sambrooks Pumphouse (£2/half). As of June 2013, food is served noon-10pm Mon-Sat and noon-9pm Sun. See photos of menu as of the same month: <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/8987576733/ bar snacks]</small>, <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/8988755888/ starters, sandwiches, mains, sides]</small>, <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/8988749656/ desserts]</small>, <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/8987583111/ specials]</small>. In October 2008, [[Kake]] tried a dish from the lunch menu: "smoked salmon served with scrambled egg and brown toast" (£5) <small>[http://flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/2972577145/ photo]</small>. The salmon was cut into small pieces and mixed in with the eggs, which wasn't what I was expecting, but it was fine. The eggs were cooked quite dry, but thankfully didn't seem to have been bulked out with milk. Toast was cut quite thick and toasted very lightly on one side only. It came with a lemon half which seemed to have been grilled at some point but was sensibly served at room temperature. In June 2013, [[Kake]] and [[bob]] shared a sausage roll (£3.25) <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/8988761790/ photo]</small> from the bar snacks menu. It was a good size, served warm, and came with a free bowl of pickled onions. A nicely-hot mustard was provided on request. The sausage roll itself was a bit bland-tasting, though, and the pastry seemed to have suffered from reheating. The pickled onions were also too sweet for [[Kake]]'s taste. Free wifi is available via The Cloud. According to a sign seen in June 2013, there's a pub quiz every Wednesday from 8pm. Accessibility: One step to get in, and regular toilets are in the basement, down a flight of stairs with no bends and a sturdy handrail on one side. There's an accessible toilet with a RADAR lock on the ground floor. |

Young's pub on Putney High Street.
Food served 11am-10pm every day.
Bob comments: The refurbishment has turned it into one of the Young's gastropubs by the looks of it from the outside. The last pub I know this happened to lost its GBG entry in the next one.
