The interior retains original wooden fittings and period details characteristic of public houses from that era.

The building exemplifies the evolution of London's social establishments, from its origins as a neighborhood pub to its current function as a modern food outlet.
The building sits in a residential neighborhood with good pedestrian access and nearby shops and cafes. Since it is listed for historical preservation, exterior alterations are strictly controlled, but visitors can easily view the architectural details from the street.
