Fentiman Arms

About Fentiman Arms

A locally listed mid-19th-century Young's pub on Fentiman Road, its stuccoed, pilastered corner frontage a short walk from Vauxhall and the Oval.

The Fentiman Arms occupies a handsome mid-19th-century corner building, locally listed for its stuccoed, pilastered elevations, arched window openings and a distinctive curved corner window beneath a pediment. It sits on Fentiman Road between Vauxhall and the Oval, drawing both neighbourhood regulars and match-day cricket crowds, and its beer garden, unusually generous for a pub this close to central London, is one of its main draws through the warmer months. As a Young's house it keeps a dependable cask range and a fairly traditional pub feel, a contrast to some of the more self-consciously modern openings nearby in Vauxhall.
