Tris C left this review about The Manor
This is obviously a 19th century end of terrace pub, previously known as the George, but possibly the Tooting Tavern prior to that; it’s a floral dance for sure and given its prominent high street location, I’m surprised no-one has reviewed it before.
The interior belies its modest exterior, with quite a few nooks and undulating interior topography, bare boarded with smoky blue paint, some floral wallpaper, white ceiling and a large expanse of bare brick, a nice etched glass mirrored wooden bar back a surviving appreciated item of heritage. Furniture is tall and blocky, some banquettes and a raised area to the rear; two shuffle boards were a distraction, but otherwise it’s a bit chintzy with young customers, some a bit gobby and laddish, all ignoring the distractingly audible and totally unnecessary F1 footage.
The ale fraternity amounted to two unused pumps, an unidentified reversed Thornbridge clip, Gloom then just Sussex Best at a central London price of £3.00 a half, served by a friendly barman and really quite good.
Improved with the removal of faceless men driving cars on the television, this place is passable, passable being the best adjective applied to a pub in this area, but the neighbouring Trafalgar is marginally better, where at least the faceless men driving cars did so in silence, though the prices are even more insulting.
