This is a club, which means that the bar may be only open to members.

This small friendly club has won a host of CAMRA awards in the last few years, including being Greater London Club of the Year on six occasions (2013, 2015, 2017-2019 and 2024) as well as being a National Club of the Year finalist on three occasions (2014, 2016 and 2019). It has also been the Club of the Year for the local CAMRA branch (Bromley) for each of the 13 years from 2013 up to 2025.

The refurbished club is free of tie and is run by a committee of real ale enthusiasts who don't serve regular beers, but purely guests with particular focus on LocAle and micro breweries. The large quantity of pump clips adorning the walls shows the sheer range of beers served over the past few years.

Up to five cask ales are available, which often include a stout or porter. A couple of keg beers are also available, which change on a regular basis. A changing range of real ciders and perries are always available, as are a small range of local canned and bottled real and gluten-free beers. Prices are extremely competitive. The club has regular live music, runs beer festivals twice per year, and frequently has "Meet the Brewer" evenings as well as organising excursions.

The club also benefits from a large rear garden. The function room is regularly used by several local groups and can be reserved for private events.

Bar sessions may be extended for events and at the discretion of the staff. The club is also open on Saturday evenings when an event is scheduled (see website or social media links for further details).

Live music is a key element at the club with a full diary of events covering a wide range of musical styles, including jazz, blues and folk. The club also plays host to the Orpington Jazz Club.

CAMRA or National Union of Liberal Clubs membership card is required for entry.
