It is difficult to describe this pub, which has just the one medium-sized room despite an impressive frontage. it feels rather as though successive refurbishments over the years have each left a few features, which don't necessarily go together. Not unpleasant but very quiet on a weekday lunchtime, with just a few locals in and none of the more upmarket types who abound in the area. Just IPA and Doom Bar on pump.

An attractive mid-terrace, mid-19th century house, with an interior which CAMRA lists as being of Some Regional Importance, on account of the near full-height dark wood field panelling, which dates from an indeterminate period in the 20th century. The floor is modern boarded and furniture comprises mainly dark green studded peripheral banquettes, with normal chairs and tables. There’s some bullseye glass, a couple of metal columns painted white and a richly detailed ceiling. The bar back looks to be faux ornate and hard to date, with a black and white tiled apron. Lighting comes from metal chandeliers, décor comprising a few framed prints, the odd knickknack, a few mirrors and a modest collection of earthenware bottles; two abnormally small TVs were showing the boxing and moderate music wafted over the room.
The customer base is largely local and jolly, though few in number, even mid-Saturday evening. The barman was pleasant enough, presiding over just the one ale: one unused clip, one reversed and Doom. I plumped for a Neck Oil, at a dispiriting £6.40, served in an annoying Beavertown-branded kiddie glass.
In an area of gastropubs, this isn’t a bad little place and with a greater selection of quality ales, this could be your best passport to a good time in Pimlico.

Single roomed traditional pub with lots of dark wood panelling with assorted period pictures, brass plates and mirrors for character. And then a wooden floor with an area of black and white tiling in front of the green wood panelled bar.
Also fairly lively for my visit and I quite enjoyed it here. The only let down was that just two of the three ale pumps were operational with a far from inspiring offering of Doombore and Pride,and actually, I spotted a much more interesting bottled craft beer line up in the fridges behind the bar.
Thought this was a nice small pub that could benefit from a more adventurous drinks offering.
