This Young's pub in Balham was refurbished in early 2008. It used to be a perfectly ordinary, perfectly decent local pub. Now, however, it has trendy furniture and loud music.

On DrHyde's March 2008 visit, service at the bar was very quick despite the place being busy, and the Young's Special was well kept but at £3.45 it was bloody expensive. Food looked OK but nothing special.

As of March 2008, food is served all day; breakfast from 9am to noon, and main menu from noon to 10:30pm.

DrHyde's verdict: It would probably count as a very good venue if what you're after is a bar. But I was after a pub, not a bar, so it was merely tolerable.
