The Antelope (87 Maple Road, Surbiton KT6 4AW) is one of my favourite pubs in London . Aside from an excellent range of craft beers (some of which are brewed on site by The Big Smoke Brewery), The Antelope is also very dog-friendly - ensuring it is a both a popular community pub (resplendid with a fireplace for the winter months) and well-received by beer lovers. Pretty good kitchen too - which seasonally changing menu.
