Long associated with Blackheath Rugby Club, this M&B pub sits on the edge of the heath. Summer drinkers spill out onto the vast green space and into the spacious walled garden. The L-shaped bar allows for large tables for groups as well as cosy sofas. The food is popular and the Sunday roasts are renowned. Guest beers come from micros and national breweries. Real cider is often available in boxes. Underwent a significant refurbishment internally in early 2015. It is a licensing requirement to ask for a plastic glass when intending to drink on the heath opposite the pub. 5 handpumps on the front bar counter and 6 on the one to the right hand side.
