25/27 Wimbledon Hill Road, Wimbledon, SW19 7NE (View on Google Map)

Converted by Whitbread from a Boots shop in 1995 as the Hand & Racket and renamed Hogshead in 1999, this medium sized, modern pub pub was acquired by Greene King and took its current name in 2004. A 2015 refurbishment has enhanced the pub.

A good atmosphere, variety of furniture, polished wood and tiled floors, wood panelled and painted walls, brick fireplace and raised seating area at the back.

Wide choice of food (not Fri & Sat evenings) and party reservations include free buffet.
