Beyond the convivial bar space at the front, a comfortable dining area leads to a part-covered suntrap patio flanked by an attractive mural. Drinkers tend to congregate in the front area around the servery, with sport often shown on TV. A more spacious dining area leads to a patio at the back.

Hall & Woodhouse had wanted to sell the Woodman and vacated and closed it in August 2023. However, a petition at https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/save-the-woodman-battersea gathered many signatures - this was the only pub left in Battersea High Street after the Castle had been demolished and the Quecumbar (Original Woodman) closed - and the pub reopened on 26 October that year, initially without the food provision, attractively refurbished.

New tenants took over the pub in 2026 just before the August bank holiday weekend, after a month's closure. Work is in progress with a view to offering food.
