Still here but now called Trude. Was worth the 10 mins to verify it was open and what it has to offer on the short walk back to Norwood Junction station. Was the only punter in here at 9pm and no sign of anyone joining or following me any time soon!
Pretty depressing on the quaffs front. No cask and obviously compared to Steve’s visit of yesteryear. Bland keg and bottle options not even worth listing at this point other than the BrewDog Punk IPA.
Ended up being a tick box exercise in SE25, but I knew that before I gravitated back to NJ station! In some respects I wasn’t disappointed!

Another pub that has closed, I'm afraid. Although the blinds are closed, it is possible to see that some work has been done inside to dismantle the fixtures & fittings. I've uploaded an interesting picture, taken a couple of years ago...

It was quiet in here on my recent week night visit, but I liked the set up of the pub and it was good to see a dartboard. There are a couple of plasma screens, one of which had a George cross on one side of it and a Kiwi flag on the other so maybe this is the rugby pub of the area.
There are four hand pumps, but only Abbot and Pride were available as the other two were unused. San Miguel was also available along with a standard draught selection and I found my pint of Guinness to be very good.
The barmaid was polite, but miserable with it – maybe it was the boredom of standing behind a bar with only two other people in the pub.
Although nothing special I would use this pub if I lived in the area.
