I missed to visit this one when I was last in town and as we were staying on the western side instead of right up the east end where we were before I wanted to put that right.
Well, it’s not unassuming anymore, and if you compare and contrast the 2018 photos with the more recent 2021 ones you can see what I mean. The front lower section is now tiled green. They look original but can’t say if they were under the previous white plasterwork or have been added. And the upper section sports a striking mural centring on a large moth for reasons that are not obvious.
Inside it looks like it’s the same two-part interior and the front sections are still fairly traditional but I’m guessing some of the décor as you go further back, such as the art deco lampshades and the stained-glass mosaics may have been added when they funked up the front of the pub. The very nice courtyard garden out the back also looks like it has benefitted from some new furniture and umbrellas.
Still Green King and the same pump set up with four handpumps on each part of the central counter, with four ales and a cider across them. Three of the front four were in Operation with Gun Brewery Extra Pale and Deuchars IPA alongside Green King London Glory. The Gun Brewery brew was very good and the back garden a good space in which to enjoy it. I thought this was a good one and well worth doing as the middle part of a trio with The Dolphin and the Eagle either side depending on which direction you approach Little Chelsea.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Dew Drop Inn

Quite unassuming-looking Greene King pub with dark green paintwork on the façade and some faux-Tudor woodwork above, but the two-part interior is quite traditional and rather more inviting. Also has a single-storey rear extension and a slightly raised patio terrace at the back. Four handpumps on each part of the central counter, with the combined offering being Olde Trip (£4.25), Abbot Reserve, 6X and Landlord as guests and Old Rosie cider.

Greene King pub thats rather gothic though with traditional wood floors, some sofas, chunky tables & chairs and a cave like drinking area to one side. Pictures show various body parts, there are some plants & its all a little ecclectic.

Nice beer
