Re-opened in December 2016, this traditional pub now has a local feel. The large windows make it light and airy, and the painted wood interior includes sofas and prints depicting local places. Some of the beers are locally sourced. Food is also locally sourced; and the menus cater for different tastes and tolerances and a delivery service is available. Sunday lunches are a speciality. The garden area has a marquee which is available for events. Quiz night is Monday. The pub operates a loyalty scheme, and participates in the annual South Norwood festival.
