A quick pint before catching a train from the nearby railway station. There was a good number of guest ales on but as I have gout in my fingers I did not make a note of them.

Very busy but excellent service, lots of familiar faces in here today. I still think back to the 1970s when this pub was very different to what it is now.

Very late on a Monday evening and the last pub on an annual tour of Wandsworth. I did not note all the beers that were available, but had to rush for the last train home.

A busy Tuesday afternoon. We enjoyed a pint and a sandwich before catching one of the frequent trains from the station across the road.

Sambrook's - Wandle3.80ExcellentOne of the best pints of Wandle that I have had for a long time. This seems to be regularly available in this pub.
