As described by others, below, this pub was one of the few left open in this area after about 8pm. The foreign barmaid was not the most welcoming and certainly not that friendly to us – instead she spent a lot of time chatting to other customers rather than serving. The gaming machines were noisy, and there was football showing on the multiple TV screens. Ales on were Pride, Doombar and Twickenham Naked Ladies, all in reasonable condition. It was OK as far as it went but I shouldn’t rush back.

Dating from at least 1842, this was rebuilt in the 1930s.
I don’t know if the interior dates from that time, but I suspect not as it ticks every ‘Victorian’ box and I don’t think Victoriana was very much in vogue during the reign of George V, so I suspect it’s fairly new, barring the rather attractive hop bine cornice. Customers seemed to be a younger lot, possibly local residents rather than either tourists or office workers and definitely not squaddies.
The parlous state of London’s ale crisis was laid bare here, with five unused pumps, then just Wandle and Twickenham’s Naked Ladies at £2.63 (?) a half and good.
This is one of the better pubs in SW1, especially this close to Victoria, but it’s not great, feeling a bit like a theme pub; the lack of imagination in the ale department lets the place down a bit, but it’s probably your best bet in the locality, with the Royal Oak over the road, not yet visited.

One big room with a semi circular bar. Eight hand pumps but nothing above 4.5% ABV. Standard keg offerings.
