A popular community pub attracting a wide clientele in the middle of Station Square and within the hub of Petts Wood East. Geared up for dining as well as partying, this venue can get busy, especially at the weekends. Over 21s only.

The imposing mock Tudor building, complete with tall chimneys and lattice windows, was built in 1935 and is Grade II listed. Built originally as a public house and hotel with a ballroom attached, it has undergone several refurbishments over the years: The most significant being in 1996, when two sides of the pub consisting of the saloon bar and restaurant were merged into one. It has, however, managed to retain its wood panelling, fireplaces, brickwork and other original features. Since then, it has been further refurbished with a modern twist to cater for its clientele.

The main entrance leads to the L-shaped tiled bar with its wooden top and brick backdrop. The ornate glazed brick fireplaces are now occupied by coal effect fires, whilst the ornate chandeliers have contemporary lighting, complementing the pale blue ceiling and wooden panelling. The flooring is part carpet in a cream and grey pattern and part tiled. There is an assortment of seating with both high and low tables. The raised area to the right of the bar gives a more traditional atmosphere, complete with banquette seating under the watchful eye of William Willett in an imposing photograph. The left of the bar leads into the dining area, on a raised level with double aspect windows. A further assortment of seating is geared up for viewing major sporting events shown on a couple of large TV screens. Framed prints, some on a time zone theme, play a low key reference to the pub's heritage.

The former ballroom is now the Function Room, and with its ornate arched ceiling and window drapes is now used for community events and hosting live music (this is available for hire).

The outside seating area around the pub overlooks the square and is sectioned off with flower troughs. The patio garden is overlooked by trees and has a couple of shelters.

There are a couple of cask ales plus a cider on handpump (Weston's) along with a range of keg beers, including Camden Town, Beavertown and BrewDog.

This pub is named in honour of local MP, William Willett, who campaigned for daylight saving in the 1900s and which subsequently led to the Summer Time Act 1916 and the creation of British Summer Time. The pub name is unique within Great Britain.
