This is a large place with several rooms which has been refitted in a sensitive way, with plenty of wooden pews and tables. There are two large rooms inside, with the bar stretching between them, as well as smaller side room with couches and bookshelves which would seat about six to eight people. There's a sizable conservatory area at the end of the bar leading to a very large beer garden area, with plenty of tables for seating and popular in the warm summer evenings. The garden has a sign saying no children after 8:30pm.

[[secretlondon]] visited one Saturday in May 2016. There are now three handpumps with Sambrook's Junction, By The Horns' Stiff Upper Lip and Purity's Mad Goose on my visit. Pints were about &pound;4. They had two meantime beers on keg, and some others I forget. The food is definitely gastro puppy (see [http://www.theselkirksw17.com/menu/ menu] and on my visit had started running two separate food ventures with a asado barbecue to be eaten in the garden. Mains were &pound;12 ish. I had some food from the barbecue as we'd been admiring the suckling pig they were cooking. It was &pound;12.50 and came on a board with corn tortillas, sweet potato and salad. The conservatory is nice and the garden lovely with picnic tables and grass.

A lively and comfortable pub near Tooting Broadway Station, just off the main road.

Although this is largely a residential backstreets pub, it's also near a large hospital and offers 10% discounts to NHS staff before 9pm on drinks and food, so it has an eye to serving its neighbourhood. On Ewan's Wednesday evening visit, the place had plenty of customers, but being so big, still had lots of space for seating.
