Although the beer garden is across the road from the pub and situated under the Croydon flyover, it's actually much nicer than these bare facts might suggest, and quite a pleasant place to sit out in summer; the road outside the pub is a quiet one, and the flyover traffic is high enough up that it doesn't really intrude.

The pub has a selection of board games (including Boggle), and a shelf of books which you can read in the pub or take away with you if you make a charity donation. There's also a fruit machine.

When [[Kake]] et al. visited in July 2011, Discovery was £3.25/pint; they also had HSB, ESB, London Pride, and Chiswick.
A pint of Red Fox was £3 in October 2008, and a packet of McCoy's 70p.
== Line 12 ==
As of July 2011 they do food at lunchtimes, but not in the evenings. However, in the evenings they do filled rolls and some very good pork pies (&pound;2.50) <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/6088869027/ photo]</small>.

Good Beer Guide pub in Croydon, under the flyover.

It's small, but cosy and hasn't much changed over the years since bob's previous visit around 2005. They have a beer garden, but it's across the road; the road is fairly quiet though, and I've never heard of anyone being run over between pub and garden. There's also a fruit machine.

One of the best pubs in the area, totally free of lager louts.

A pint of Red Fox was £3 in October 2008, and a packet of McCoy's 70p.

Comment added by Blanksight: A great regulars' pub, serving four Fuller's beers in mint condition. If you're lucky there'll be food of some sort. No music, no machines, only darts.
