Nice pub. Lots of seating. Reasonable prices. Very friendly and super nice bar tender! He was really knowledgeable about other pubs to check out for various ciders. was quiet when we were there but I'm sure it gets busy. Especially when Millwall is playing. There is a smoking room in the back as well as some outdoor seating at the front. The restrooms are like most of the London pubs - small and closet-like. They have a pool table and television to watch the game on.

First time in here and found it very friendly, both staff and customers. Pint of Doombar just £2.25, Guinness £3.19. Competitive with Wetherspoon's. Pool table and sports TV on several screens. Dog friendly! Only negatives are presently there's no outside seating, but I'm assured this is due imminently, and there's graffiti in the gents. Well worth a visit. I'll definitely be making this my local.
