This pub reopened as a 'Grumpy Mole' on 14 November 2012 and specialises in its restaurant menu. Space for non-diners may be limited. The catering hours are split into separate periods for lunch, afternoon tea and dinner - check the web site for details. The building dates to the 19th century, and was owned in the 1930s by Hoare & Co, a brewery which was acquired by Charringtons. The adjacent 'Bell Cottages' were older, suggesting that an earlier pub may have existed on the site. Although the 470 bus route is closest, routes 151, 213 and SL7 stop in Cheam Village, a short walk away.
