Good Beer Guide pub on the river in Kingston.

It has a fair bit of outside seating (unsurprising, given the location) — a beer garden with lots of picnic tables as well as a sort of verandah-type thing.

Kake visited on a Thursday afternoon in September 2009. Five real ales were available; Dark Star Sunburst, York Guzzler, Isle of Purbeck Fossil Fuel, Pilgrim Progress, and Pilgrim Templar. I had the Guzzler (£1.50/half), and it was fine. The staff didn't seem at all perturbed by my taking photos of the pump clips. They also had three polypins behind the bar, one of which at least contained cider.

According to an advert in the Dec 2011/Jan 2012 issue of London Drinker, food is served noon-10pm Mon-Sat and noon-9:30pm Sun. It looks quite interesting photo of menu as of September 2009.

Also according to the abovementioned advert, they have live jazz every Sunday from 8:30pm.

Accessibility: A step up to get in at the "front" entrance, though you could possibly get in step-free via the beer garden. Once you're in, it's level to the ladies', gents', bar, and some of the seating area.
