Grade II listed, this end-of-terrace pub, first licensed in 1832 and rebuilt in 1894, comprises a small triangular public bar, matchboard panelled and simply furnished, and a homely saloon with a stripped wooden floor, a panelled counter with bar stools, an ornate wood and mirror back-bar and dining tables with comfortable chairs.
Apart from the cask ale on offer, the pub has an extensive range of London bottled beers, ordered by numbers. Food centres on burgers and residents of the 74-bed youth hostel upstairs enjoy discounts at the bar. Eclectic range of unobtrusive piped music!
Note alcohol not for sale until noon on Sundays.

One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest
Listed status: II
A locals’ pub and hostel, which forms a striking landmark in the streetscape and which no doubt doubled as a hotel when built in 1856.
The irregular site gives rise to a three-quarter-round corner and a pair of interestingly shaped rooms inside. The public bar lies in the sharp corner and has plain, match-board panelling to the walls and counter plus a plainish bar-back. There is a small fireplace which has unfortunately been over-painted in green. The fine advertising mirror above the mantelpiece may be a modern reproduction. Most of the small window panes have cut and etched glass and one of the door panels says ‘BAR’ in the glass. But the real star performer at this pub is the saloon with its late-Victorian panelled bar counter and stunning bar-back. This is a beautiful eight-bay affair with two tiers of paired mirrors with orange-coloured detailing. The windows contain much etched and cut glass.

But the real star performer at this pub is the saloon with its late-Victorian panelled bar counter and stunning bar-back. This is a beautiful eight-bay affair with two tiers of paired mirrors with orange-coloured detailing. Sitting on top of it are nine porcelain casks for spirits and other drinks: long disused these are named with their former contents, which included Old Tom (a well-known gin), Shrub (lemon or other juice with spirits such as rum), Lovage (liquor made from the seeds of the lovage plant) and Aniseed. The windows contain much etched and cut glass. The lamps over the saloon bar counter are evidently imports, bearing the initials of the London, Brighton & South Coast Railway and thus pre-dating 1923.
