A traditional two bar pub with a rather run-down public bar one side and a larger, more tasteful saloon the other. Look closely and you will find some nice heritage touches hidden round the place, including some good etched glasswork. Ales on were London Pride, Windsor & Eton Three Wise Guardsmen and Oakham Winter Wisp, with that sampled in good order. Beware it doesn't open weekday lunchtimes, despite contrary information on the web. Also contrary to the previous review, I found a very friendly welcome, so things might have improved.

Making an off the cuff visit to this pub it was a major disappointment. Only the public bar was open, very tatty inside , the walls just bare plaster with patches of filler here and there though it didn't look like any redecorating was in progress, the floor, roughly cut wooden board, the only thing pleasing to the eye was the red leather upholstered bench settees. The barman/landlord was disinterested to the point of ignorance as he tore himself away from his newspaper to serve me at the bar. I was expecting at least some interesting beer but no, just a choice of two , Hobgoblin and Bowland Spooky which turned out to be wishy washy rubbish.
Awful.

Can't really expand on John Bonser's and others reviews, other than to say that this pub is the best within walking distance of Twickenham that dosn't get rammed solid on match day. I have drunk here several times in the past couple of years and will continue to do so.
Called before the Tigers / Saints final on 25/5/13 and was a little dissappointed in the beer selection. Quite a lot of GK related brews. Personally nothing much against GK but others in our party struggled to find a non GK beer.
