It's made up of two rooms; the one on the left has the entrance, the bar, a TV, and a small amount of seating. Up a few steps to the right is a more spacious room which also has a bar billiards table and displays of local art on the walls. There's a beer garden out the back. |
On a Sunday afternoon had five real ales on; two from the Surrey Hills Brewery, two from Fullers, and one from the Wye Valley Brewery. The beers were well kept and tasty. The Shere Drop was £2.45 a pint (March 2007). |

The bar has six handpumps, and usually around five real ales on, all well-kept and tasty. They usually have London Pride and ESB plus three less-common ones. In March 2007, the guests were two from the Surrey Hills Brewery (one of which was Shere Drop, £2.45/pint) and one from the Wye Valley Brewery. In September 2008, the guests were Sharps Doom Bar, Dark Star Best, and Cottage Brewery E-Type; the last of these ran out during our visit and was replaced with Everards Tiger. |
The food menu looked pretty standard for a pub. Food is served noon-2pm and 6pm-10pm Monday to Friday, noon-10pm Saturday, and noon-7pm Sunday. |

According to their website, they also offer up to twenty types of bottled Belgian beer; we haven't examined the selection yet though. |

No piped music (at least on our September 2008 visit). |
[[Martin]], [[Bob]] and [[Adam]] visited in January 2008. The beer was good, and the food was good and reasonably priced. [[Martin]]'s pork chop and mash with peas (£7) was simple and tasty, and [[Bob]]'s and [[Adam]]'s fish and chips (£8) looked excellent - a big thick chunk of cod in crispy batter. Most food options were around £6, and there were three vegetarian options listed (a curry, a nut roast, and something else). |

As of September 2008, food is served noon-3pm and 6pm-9pm Monday to Saturday, and 12:30pm-3:30pm Sunday. The options are fairly standard for pub food, though there are also specials which may be more interesting. |
On a visit in April 2008 the food menu was a lot shorter and more basic. The scampi and chips was fine as was the ham, egg, and chips. They were both under a fiver. The beer was as good as ever, with Pride, ESB, HSB, and two others on. |

However on a subsequent visit in April 2008, the food menu had become a lot shorter and more basic. The scampi and chips was fine as was the ham, egg, and chips; both were under a fiver. Another visit in September 2008 confirmed that the food menu was still fairly short (though we didn't try the food on this occasion). On [[AndrewB]]'s June 2007 visit, there was free wireless, but [[Kake]] was unable to connect to any networks in September 2008. Accessibility: Shallow step up to get in, more steps to get to the toilets and the bar billiards. |
