Like BarrieDaleNick, we used to enjoy going to the Honor Oak 2 or 3 years ago. It had a friendly family kind of feel and the range of beers and food on offer was varied and pretty good. We too had a couple of odd evenings in there after it 'reinvented' itself. The landlords appeared to want to attract a totally different market - more of a music/club/pub atmosphere. A brave try perhaps, but on the Honor Oak/Perry Vale borders? All sorts of people live around this area and somewhere among them a community heart still beats. So,a decent pub with some decent grub that is not too expensive and will suit a wide range of people gets a thumbs up from me. I'm on the mailing list.
