This back-street local pub dates from the 1830s when it was surrounded by fields. Six real ales are on offer, mostly from independent breweries including the local Bexley Brewery. It has a good reputation for its home-cooked food at lunchtimes (no food Mondays or Sundays) with Italian specials, which can be eaten at tables made from old Singer sewing machines. Frequent branch Pub of the Year and London regional winner three times. Over 21s only. 2020 marked 40 years of Ray and Katerina Johnson running this pub.

CAMRA local branch Pub of the Year 2024, 2025.
