picture of Windmill on the Common
What with a bar, lounge, restaurant, conservatory and plenty of tables outside, there's enough room here for anyone who ambles in from Clapham Common - though you might be forgiven for thinking that you have to have at least two children to live in the area, particularly on a sunny Sunday afternoon. It can feel a bit dead inside when everyone's out on the terrace or on the Common. That said, all the bars were five deep last time we were in on a warm day and the staff didn't seem able to cope with the demand. The car park right next to the beer garden can give the place the feel of a midlands travel tavern. Those criticisms aside, usual Young's fare and regular guest beers (Tribute and Doom Bar were on when we were in last) is on offer and it can be a handy meeting place before heading elsewhere. The menu is extensive and in line with prices in the area - slightly pricey, if you must ask. If you're dying of thirst, we wouldn't recommend it on a hot day, but if you catch it on a quieter day, it's a good place to soak up the sun with a pint.
