Top venue for Sunday lunch & live jazz, in a real pub. Cannot be beaten.
My sister-in-law had her wedding reception here in the back garden area. The manager and staff went all out to make the occasion very special. Really well done to all the staff that looked after us!
The early dinner food was amazing and the night time snack table was super delicious.

Always an enjoyable, lively place to drink. Great, friendly bar staff and a diverse, happy and eclectic mix of customers.
It is impossible not to love this pub.
One small personal caveat: I wish they had a better craft beer on tap. This will not stop me coming back again and again (ad infinitum) t
Best pub in Croydon by far. Really cosy inside and with a lovely beer garden too. Great, friendly staff and a lovely home cooked food menu as well as regular live music and other events. Book your tables early as this place books up fast! As the sign outside says: "Friendly food, tasty staff" 😂
Was there for a retirement do on Friday 30th June 2023, been there before, always a good atmosphere, nice beer garden with covered areas, and good live entertainment, band was good, and the young lady who was singing this time had a lovely voice. Definitely worth a visit, staff always friendly, good
Simply the best pub in Croydon. Also great food and selection of beers at a reasonable price. Their roasts are especially good but remember to book as it is really popular on Sundays when they also have great live jazz music. Shout out also to the super friendly staff - please keep up the great work
A delightful gem, hidden away in the back streets of East Croydon. Superb greeting and selection of ales. Veggie roast up there with the best. Live jazz playing was amazing. I understand it's a real community pub in the correct way.
Wish it was my local.
I bought my parents here for lunch after I got married and we all had the most amazing food. Wonderful staff, and a brilliant atmosphere. I've been back a few times since and it's never disappointed.
I booked a couple of tables at The Oval Tavern for a leaving do.
Process was really easy, staff were flexible and extremely welcoming. Prices are fair and the real ales are kept extremely well, by far the best in that regard in walking distance of East Croydon.
Particular thanks to Mike who handle
Saw a live band (Junkyard Choir) here.
The pub is lovely and staff were super helpful and attentive.
We never waited long to get served even though it was busy.
It’s a great pub, worthy of any out of area visit. Its got everything to have a pleasant and enjoyable night. Good music, food, and beers. The clientele friendly, a real mixture of intelligent conversation. I like it, see for yourself, you might return like me. 👍👌
Went there to celebrate my brothers birthday, unfortunately it rained all day so we were not able to use the substantial garden. The staff made sure it did not effect the day, they worked very hard. It helped make an amazing day brilliant.
I booked a table for 8 sunday roasts after a recomendation from a friend. All were very happy. Lovely staff and garden. It was a little cooler than anticipated so the infra red heaters above the tables were very welcome indeed. Ales were running low after the jazz fans inside had their fill.
Ohmygoodness. How have I not been here before? Great Sunday roast, including vegan for my friend. Live jazz by a really fun band. Friendly barstaff and great drink selection.
Beef rendang, Club Snadwich with Chuncky chips. Plus drinks
Love this place. Always life musicians and events in the weekends and the garden is Lush,food is lovely. I have been many times ,recommend
A very pretty flower adorned pub with a lovely garden to enjoy food and drink. An outside oasis.
Everything about this pub is excellent. The people are very friendly, including the bar staff. There was a live band, which for me to hear different music than I'd normally listen to was great. Good selection of beers, just a really nice vibe that makes you want to come back again and again.
