The Windmill, Croydon

Male dominated pub. Very friendly and welcoming staff and decently kept real ale, though not much choice. Bit like stepping back 20 years but good fun.

The Orchard, Croydon

Ultimately very friendly although intimidating on entry. Disappointing real ale selection (only Pride). Juke box, pool and darts - good fun in a run down place.

The Glamorgan, Croydon

This is my local and it is now good to see the number of punters growing. Despite turning 'Gastro' it has maintained a traditional atmosphere and has a decent beer garden. It is the first pub where I have had to contend with a Morris Dancer's convention for bar service. Well worth a visit. Contrary to some opinion, the barman/landlord does have a sense of humour - it's just rather dry and sometimes hidden!
