From its leaded windows to its checkerboard tables, this is a wonderfully preserved traditional pub. Add on the Beverley Brook trundling past and you're looking at one with all the bearings of a National Trust property in Suffolk. The timeless feel continues inside: all well-kept ales, pub games and regulars who look like they've spent a fair bit of time here. Still, we're all for a boozer where the whole pub gathers round the TV for the horse racing and it's possible to strike up conversation with your fellow punters. A quiz on Tuesday nights and live Jazz on Wednesdays are added features. Places like this one die off every year in London - here's hoping this one stays the course. Pop in and help it along.
