picture of Arab BoyWith a name like that we were expecting a Bedouin style interior and a hookah pipe at each table. Or at least an elderly roue in the corner recounting his exploits in the fleshpots of Marrakech. On first impressions then, we were a tad disappointed with what the pub is - a rather small Greene King house, plastered with wall-bracketed TVs offering no escape if the football's on. Saying that, the punters looked a happy bunch and 4.95 for a Sunday roast is a bargain (especially in Putney). It's a bit off the beaten track, but a good one if Sunday means a pint, a roast and Sky Sports
