Very much a locals pub nowadays with a more sedately painted exterior of plain white, very little mention of Crystal Palace at all inside apart from a small framed colured drawing of the pub in its former colours hanging on a wall. No real ale but the place was buzzing with custom. A pint of Guinness surficed for a short stay. I'm not likely to return but it was ok for a one off.

As I walked down High Street looking for the old Half and Half bar I as usual glanced down each side street in case anything unknown to me pub-wise might be lurking. I really couldn't miss this one with its garish blue and red exterior, allegedly due to some bet between the landlord and a regular one of whom clearly being a Crystal Palace supporter.
Well the H&H had headed home to become some sort of night time cocktail venue so I retraced my steps and entered. A kind of reverse C-shape my notes say, maybe a D(?), the bar is central, old Charrington's banded windows, regular seating and a definite feel of a second home for regulars and their many children. The walls had a fair bit of CPFC memorabilia as well as Glasgow Rangers ( the bet perhaps....not dissimilar colours) and an England shirt. A corner contained a dartboard.
Four handpumps, only one on with Courage Best (£1.90) whatever that is nowadays, I chucked a quick half down.
"Interesting" toilets with perhaps the rustiest radiator I have ever seen. An experience but not one to deter others unduly to be fair.
