Nice pub, very comfortable. Doombar is my choice of ale and served very well. Lots of screens for sport lovers. No food served but you can bring in your own. Problem is, no notice of opening times displayed, so have been in the area and had to walk past closed doors.
Update: Went in there on Bank Holiday Monday. Doombar still on sale, but now costs £5 a pint and it was served in plastic. Think I'll miss this pub from now on. Rating gone down.

This pubs main attraction to me was its closeness to Oval tube station making it very convenient for a pint whilst waiting for a meet. A decent enough white and black exterior which now supports some metal tables and chairs on the pavement when the weather is fine ,and the interior is as well described below.
In keeping with the recent experiences of others, three handpumps on the bar with two in operation and Youngs Bitter and Doombar available. And my pint of Youngs, still at £3.80 if I remember correctly, was perfectly fine.
Perfectly comfortable for a pint whilst waiting for others before moving on, but certainly not one to make a special effort to search out.

The Hanover Arms is very handy for Oval tube station.
Once inside there is a long oblong shaped room with the bar facing,the room is on two levels the right side is up 1 step,the room is bare boarded the seating was comfy bench type which faced the bar and normal tables and chairs,there were 3 TVs 2 showing rugby and 1 showing basketball from the commonwealth games.
There were three pumps on the bar all had Doom Bar on so i had a drink of this,the beer was ok but slightly too warm for my liking.
This is a decent enough pub that had a fair few customers in on my Saturday morning visit.
