Top tips

Ask about: mislabelled dishes

  • Good to know: Ask staff to confirm toppings and sauces: one diner received dairy sour cream with a meal despite asking for vegan food.
  • Consider checking the music schedule and choosing your visit accordingly; live jazz and bands are regular features, and one reviewer found the music too loud on a quieter evening.

About

This traditional Croydon pub serves a well-liked vegan Sunday roast, alongside dishes such as falafel, hummus and avocado salad and Em’s ratatouille. Its walled beer garden has vegetable patches reportedly used in the kitchen, and regular jazz, live music and community events make it more of a lively gathering spot than a quiet dinner venue.
