Visited 16/06/25

No cask. Four hand pumps on the counter, two unclipped, two tantalisingly offering Abbot and Old Golden Hen but told in no uncertain terms not available. Keg offering of Amstel, Fosters, Guinness, Inch's cider, dark fruits SB, Corona, Camden Pale, Moretti, Stella, John Smiths, Heineken, Carlsberg.

This apparently ceased to be a JDW about 18 months ago at time of my visit. Still retain the look and feel and outside signage. Bar counter along left-hand wall just inside entrance with a tiled skirt in an otherwise ancient JDW carpeted area. Room off to the right-hand side of the venue had booth tables along the right-hand wall and otherwise regular tables and chairs. Area around the bar counter generally tall tables and tall stools including in front window looking onto the busy road. Rear of the venue had a pool table and a couple of fruit machines and there was a beer garden to the rear, nothing exciting some picnic benches on a paved area. Probably one of the biggest gulfs between a venue in an out of the JDW worlds – a thoroughly depressing drinking establishment!

An old skool Spoons in every respect, from its fascia to its innards. Must be one of their earliest (Whatpub says 1993) as it is a pretty small affair with the pleasant faux Victoriana interior of the era and a small paved garden. Two guest ales, one of which huffed and died on pouring, so I went worth pints of ELB (NBSS 2) from a knackered pump which gave me an ice cream style feel, alongside a Ruddles (3) as I awaited the arrival of the day’s crawlees. I looked to be the only punter on the cask. Not surprised to see this one turn-up on the recent JDW disposals list; it’ll be a loss to the area I suspect.GBG’23 listed but dropped out of the ’24 Guide, so someone in the local CAMRA branch is paying attention.

As others have noted, very much an old school Spoons, in the panelled drawing room with old photos style and complete with a clientele very firmly in the 'old geezer' category. Somehow it does not seem as large as it looks from the outside, although there is a patio area to the rear as well as pavement tables at the front. Beerwise, and despite a Good Beer Guide listing, just Sambrooks Wandle alongside the usual trio, and not in the best of condition either. Disappointing.
