An ancient Borough tavern - variously the George & Dragon then George's Tavern - dating back to at least the late 17th century, but rebuilt in the brewers' Tudor in 1899, when it became the Hole in the Wall.
The previous reviews applied or apply, but as mentioned, it’s now a Fuller’s pub and a very modernised one too, as empty late Saturday evening as Moby found it, earlier on a Saturday.
Graced with framed prints, panelled walls are a predictable shade of smoky blue, with a white Anaglypta ceiling, from which is suspended a metal gantry filled with pot plants. The décor is very modern, with a pale floor, modern mainly tall - but too short - stools to modern tall tables with tealights and plants. There’s low furniture and a tangerine orange upholstered banquette to the window. Further into the pub, there’s standard height modern furniture with drum chairs, also with orange upholstery and modern shaded lamps above. The bar back has white shiny glazed tiles, the bar front is modern field panelled and again, the same shade of orange. What few customers were in, were young and probably professional incomers, talking loudly perhaps to counter the rather loud music.
Pride and Seafarers were on, as well as Dark Star Solar Eclipse (£2.55 a half and a bit bland) and Hophead at £4.95 a pint and fine, served by a friendly barmaid whose hair was the same shade of orange as the upholstery and bar front; a deliberate attempt at staff colour co-ordination?
This is by no means a great pub; the Gladstone and Libertine are right round the corner and if you fancy a Fuller’s beer, there’s always the Ship too.

This is now a Fullers pub, albeit a rather featurless modernised one. The ale choice was limited to just Pride and Hophead , there was a much larger choice of keg premium lager and craft beers. It was fairly quiet on an early Saturday evening, in fact staff outnumbered punters. My pint of hophead was in reasonable shape but not that good that I will be rushing back here.

Next door to the Tube station is this smart looking pub with a Brewer's Tudor facade. Inside has inevitably been whacked through, though an effort has been made to add some large U-shaped seating at the front and back-to-back padded seating at the rear to break things up a bit. Otherwise it's blue and white painted wood panelling, scrubbed wood tables mounted on what look like scaffolding legs, subdued lighting and unobtrusive modern electronic lounge music, which created a decent vibe. Four ales on; Sharps Doom Bar, Sambrook Wandle, Bath Gem and Truman's Zephyr (no sign of GK beers – have they sold the pub?). A half of the latter was in good shape and set me back £2.15 which is about the going rate round here. The barman was togged up in white shirt and black waistcoat but was friendly enough. I was faintly surprised to quite enjoy my 15 minutes here and it’s worth a look if you're heading to the Royal Oak.
