This is a mid-19th century pub, which still exhibits some green banded Charrington’s glass.
The interior was subject to a substantial makeover in 2017, though the previous review largely applies. It has been comprehensively gastrofied in here, with a very contemporary interior featuring a modern floor, Farrow & Ball colour scheme, green glazed tiling, zoned contemporary furniture and fluted glass lamp shades. The rear is largely geared towards dining and here there’s a plate glass window which looks out over a substantial, landscaped garden. There are bored games, trendy framed prints though at least there’s a log fire. Customers included families with their progeny or young professional types; there’s a vast gulf between execution and demography here compared to the Orchard up the road and certainly for the better.
Ales amounted to two unused pumps, then Original or Special at £2.65 a half.
There’s very little to recommend this borough pub-wise, but this is one of the better establishments.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Eagle
Refurbished by Geronimo since my last (pre-takeover) visit. The partly opened-out interior leaves an overall reversed 'J' shape, with a two-part bar and a dining area to the rear. Usual mix of semi-modern furniture and gastro-pub decor. Unintrusive background music on a fairly busy Friday evening. Young's Ordinary and Wooden Spoon, LBF Chelsea Blonde and Wimbledon Common (£4.10) available from the four handpumps this time. However, from previous experience, the main attraction is the substantial patio beer garden to the rear. This has a few tables at the higher level, but most of the seating is located around a small green (with the occasional 'Baby Eagle' bar housed in a small brick building to one side). All a bit overdone in terms of modern outdoor furniture and wacky decor, but undoubtedly a nice spot in good weather.

They had on three ales during my Saturday lunchtime visit – Young’s London Gold and Centenary, and Sharp’s Doom Bar. There are two bar areas at the front separated by a large open archway both of which were quite full with people watching the Liverpool v Manchester United game before heading off to Loftus Rd to watch QPR. At the back on the left is another room with all tables set for diners. There’s a smallish outside seating area at the front. Like so many pubs these days this one has a number of modern touches – candles (alight on a sunny Saturday afternoon) on ledges and other flat surfaces; dividing screens with shelving bearing assorted knick knacks; shelves on the bar back containing vases, dried fruit and the like. It’s a bit like an Ember Inn in some respects – but without the football supporters. There are the usual mix of sofas, tall tables/stools, and standard tables and chairs.
It’s not my ideal of a pub, but a decent enough place nonetheless.
