This Marston's pub gets its name from the proximity of East Croydon station and the former Royal Mail depot (now demolished). It is typically busy after 5pm, being affectionately known to station staff as 'platform seven'. A large island bar dominates one half of the pub, with three handpumps and a range of 'craft' taps. The bar leads into a lounge area with curved booths in the corners and a raised dining area. Note that cask ale may not always be available, that last orders are taken fifteen minutes before closing time and that the pub may close earlier than advertised if required.

Information for this venue is provided by the Croydon & Sutton Branch of CAMRA
