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

The Sparrowhawk is on the northwest apex of the Crystal Palace triangle. The pub has been completely re-styled from its former identity of the Hollybush. Clear windows and pine furniture give it a modern look. A few minutes (uphill) walk from Gipsy Hill Station, it is also served by many buses. The unusual name is chosen from a suggested solution to the abundance of sparrows at the Crystal Palace in Victorian times. Now opens in the mornings with a new food menu - check times as those on the web site and Facebook page may differ. The recent refurbishment has included the addition of eight TV screens within the pub.
