Lovely and seemingly never ending pub. Food was a bit mixed - but the squid and chickpea salad was a real spicy treat that gives me confidence to come back and try a lot more.

Nice little pub! If you're on a date try and get the corner table by the window with comfy seats.
Gill WeekesSeptember 30, 2017
Buzzy pub with great food. Top notch service too, would love to try their Sunday roast.

Beef and ale pie is extremely disappointing. The gravy that accompanies it is incredibly watery. The Horseradish mash hardly had any flavour and is somehow both watery and lumpy. The pie was adequate

Great Sunday lunch but burger also amazing. Excellent drinks & friendly staff. Perfect for a thirst quencher after day in brockwell park (when weather improves)

Lots of space, beer garden, decent food menu for most.

Meantime pale ale is worth the £4. I just pray the loud City Boy-style bros aren't in attendance for your visit.

Great for people who like waiting 20 minutes to be served at the bar and have fun guessing who works here so that you can order food!

Great for Sunday lunch. Great in house beers. Table Football as well. No kids after 7pm. The Bishop in East Dulwich is a sister pub. Read more

No reserved seating so act like a lion ready to pounce. Reasonable Sunday lunch but if you come late the giant Yorkshire puds are a bit stale.

It's all about the roast dinners, and chicken is my fave. They are huge so make sure you've plenty of room.
Tim RJanuary 22, 2012
Great place. Use the secret DJ app on your phone. Downside- They need a new dishwasher
Steve ChambersNovember 22, 2014
Great pub if you have little people with you.
Michael JohnsonJuly 11, 2015
Food, ales and tennis!
Kieran McMillanAugust 30, 2010
Genius play room for the kids. Parents can enjoy the food and drink in the garden while keep little ones frolic behind sound proofed glass! Don't order Greek salad though, salad dressing was awful!

Really good home brewed ale. Try the Weasel or the Dam Tasty Beaver! Whichever's on at the time...
Ricardo YeowartFebruary 19, 2018
Pod ales brewed in house

Bloody Mary and the roast chicken here are the perfect cure to any hangover.

Probably good in the summer.
Damien BennettSeptember 4, 2011
Make sure you try the squeaky cheese....delicious.
Michele D'AgostinoDecember 18, 2011
Weasel home brewed beer is a must!
Mark TylerJuly 30, 2011
Bring sandwiches and eat them whilst glaring at the bar staff.

Quite s**t now. Used to be so much better before (in about 2010!)

Lovely pub but difficult to get served even when quiet
Gareth OwensNovember 14, 2010
Very busy on Sunday and the food suffers, roasts are OK but the lasagne is like a stodgy brick!

Don't eat the onion rings -- too greasy. I recommend the mustardy macaroni and cheese!

Don't expect to be served in a hurry. Perhaps take some time out at the bar to ponder your life choices thus far.
WammoNovember 18, 2012
Been here a couple of times. Beer is good but service is average.
Alec MacknightOctober 21, 2010
