Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Windermere
Grand, late 1930s Grade II-listed ex-Courage pub with a largely unaltered interior of national historic importance as recognised by Camra. The main saloon bar and lounge are on the station side, with a newer connection through to the public bar which is now mostly used as a games room. Quite dark inside, partly because the windows are quite small, but also due to the wood panelling and limited Art Deco lighting. Just London Pride (£5.40) available from the three handpumps, but having any cask ale at all is quite rare in this part of London, and well worth a visit for the heritage aspects.

3* CAMRA listed heritage pub which I have passed on countless journeys up the West Coast Mainline ,often looking rough from that view .The heritage drew the visit and there is much to admire.It's a square building and the door to the Public Bar was locked,but this is now the pool room.The main entrance gives way to the tap room,L shaped bar which runs through to a rear lounge.The feature is the rich use of mahogany and fine curved sections at the corner of rooms and on the bar counter itself.Original doors and lots of impressive panelling.However the ambiance is affected by numerous Sky Sports flatscreens,and a strange small raised section in the rear room.Furniture is functional at best,and it's really a local boozer for local people,a mono culture as opposed to the multi cultural area in which it sits.
Just one handpump dispensing London Pride (decent,£2.20 the half,NBSS 3.5) by a very attractive barmaid.The keg selection was mainstream but the pub survives due to it's regular customers so it serves it's purpose well.
Visit for the heritage if not the pub experience,it's a stones throw away from South Kenton station.
