The entrance to this apparently very small pub is off Mepham Street, hidden down behind the bus stops outside Waterloo. However, going through the small front room leads you into a much larger space behind. There's a beer garden of sorts out the back too (more of a smoking area). Sport is shown on big screens, the back bar has a pinball machine (Mediaeval Madness, as of May 2008), and the feel is very much that of a friendly locals' pub - despite its proximity to a major transport hub.

These were much the same in March 2011.
