Situates in a railway arch, a short hop across the road from Waterloo rail station's main entrance, this independent family owned free house enjoys the comforting rumble of trains overhead on their way to and from Charing Cross. The pub has a small cosy rugby themed front bar, a larger more basic rear bar showing sport on TV and a small beer garden with patio heaters at the back. A long time real ale stalwart, with seven changing cask beers from handpumps in both bars, mainly from London and southern England brewers. The two ciders on offer may not always comply with CAMRA’s definition of real cider. The pub can get particularly busy when there’s a rugby game at Twickenham. Live Irish acoustic folk music plays on Sunday evenings.
