The main bar area at the front has standing room and bar stools both at the bar and at high tables by the front window. The floorboards here are bare, while another area to the right of the bar has large patterned rugs on the floor and a leather chair in the corner. There's another small alcove-like room at the back, and a bookable function room upstairs. Tables and chairs are dark wood, and the walls are half-panelled. |

The ram must be a reference to Young's, while the dog and bull are obviously references to the name of the pub; we're not sure what the horse signifies. |

On another visit in February 2012, the ales included Winter Warmer (£3.45/pint), and the place was quite full at a little before 6pm, with drinkers lining the bar and only one or two free tables. No music was playing on either of these visits. |

Young's pub on Surrey Street in Croydon, in the Good Beer Guide.
It's very traditional (in a real way, not in a fake way), and has a large beer garden out the back. It's situated right on Surrey Street Market, and during the day the market traders' shouts of "pound a bowl" can be heard from inside the pub.
