Dec 2022 beers from Hackney and Taylor's were available - we are led to understand that the pub has considerable latitude in the cask beers it can stock.

Large main road pub at West Hampstead Green. A mixture of high and low seating is provided to suit all requirements. Fairly large outdoor drinking areas can be found at both back and front. Food is served from a short but well thought menu with brunches served Friday and Saturday, see their website for more detail.

For many years badged as a standard Greene King pub but now trades under its Metropolitan Pub Company brand. This has resulted in an expanding and changing range of real ales which does not seem to feature Greene King standards.
