It offers Belgian beers and wheat beers as well as real ale (the London Pride was good on [[bob]]'s June 2007 visit). There is also real cider on tap and in bottles. Service is definitely friendly. |
The London Pride was good. The steak pie was tasty and did not commit heresy; the gravy was a bit thin though. On a Tuesday lunchtime there was no one else in the pub. Quiz nights on Tuesdays, comedy on Thursdays. |

Otherwise the menu offered a good variety, including roasts on a Sunday <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/55935853@N00/3315172857/ photo of menu]</small>. |
