See more about this pub on WhatPub, CAMRA's national pub guide.

Next to the charming weatherboarded Mint Cottages and opposite Place Farm, this pub was once in the heart of the mint growing district some distance to the south of Banstead village centre. It became a beerhouse in 1871 and was purchased by Page and Overton's Croydon brewery at auction in 1899. It is now part of M&B's Vintage Inns chain and is decorated very much in their house style. Food is available between 12 and 9:30. The left hand side is the main restaurant area with most of the tables laid for diners and table service is provided. The front and right is used by drinkers and casual diners except on Sundays when the right is used as an additional restaurant area. There are real log fires in the winter and a small, sheltered patio garden for use in the warmer months. The guest beer is from the Vintage Inns list and is often Harvey's Sussex Best Bitter. Baby change facilities are available in the disabled toilet. Camra members receive a discount of 20p on a pint of cask ale on production of their membership card. Monday nights are quiz nights. Dogs are welcome and there is free WiFi.
