With leather sofas, old bottles and books the Eagle is a bastion for beers from micro-breweries from London, Surrey and further afield.
Everyone and her dog is welcome, with a choice of six or seven ales plus a cider typically on offer.
A heated marquee in the garden is used for special occasions such as beer festivals. The large-screen TV shows major sporting events.
Was also the local CAMRA Pub of the Year 2012 after three years as runner-up.

A gorgeous little local find, cosy and comfy indoors, a small space with plenty of seats and little alcoves for a bit of old school privacy, a very welcome change from the vast soulless airship hangars that many bars seem to ape. I don't care if they serve sport or not, I don't care about the music, it's a place to come and snuggle down and have a good chinwag with mates & tennis partners!
Great atmosphere. Lovely old pub with a warm and inviting feel. Tucked away down a quiet side street.
Nice place and good atmosphere, bit weird they have “cash is king card is killing us” signs everywhere - feels a little ungrateful that I’m handing them £5.50 for a vodka coke and they don’t like me choosing how I pay. Taking only cash costs too - there’s the risk of theft, forgeries, bank charges to deposit and the fact hundreds of people simply wouldn’t come in as they don’t carry cash. When independent pubs are struggling, not an ideal message to complain about the way I’m literally handing you profits!
This pub I've been wanting to review for a while but it's either been closed, or it's been rammed wall to wall and I can't get my empty pictures. I timed it wrong again here, celebrating after a successful opticians visit, I arrived 10 minutes before opening. The guy on the bar welcomed me in regardless, and poured an exceptional pint of the Verdant Sundialer I previously posted. I had 2 of them. I could've had a million of them. Basking in wobbly garden embracing the sun, then the torrential rain then the sun again, reeling from the half of @breadstall pizza I'd inhaled moments prior, it doesn't get much better than that. The pub itself is old af, goes back to 1876 I believe and was restored in 1890, originally one of six pubs on the street and the main brewery supplying them. Sadly this is the last one remaining, many a pub gone in Clapham to make way for housing, some of the facades and structures remain if you look closely. Some resembling pubs so much that I got my roads mixed up and thought this one had closed down a few years back - reading old articles, there was a very real threat that it did during Covid. Inside it's roomy, comfy, and red. It's probably the best way to describe it. Coat-hooks under the bar, and bar seating, are a welcomed sight to see. It's the small touches that make this one of the classic pubs you know and love, and with the impressive keg and cask selection it's no wonder it's been repeatedly listed as a CAMRA SW London award winner, and even graced the cover of the GBG. Some great memories of bouncing down Northcote Road when I lived and worked in Clapham many years ago. A good slice of nostalgia bouncing down here again, not much has changed, and with respect to this pub, I'm thankful for it.
Charming traditional pub oozing character, slightly hidden away just off Northcote Road. Between a fine choice of beers, board games and good size beer garden, it’s a good choice if you find yourself between Balham and Clapham Junction. If you found my review or photos useful please leave a quick thumbs up 👍 Thank you!
