Historical version 18 of Phoenix, 12a Station Road (view current version)
- 12a Station Road, CR0 2RB
Small pub on Station Road, near West Croydon Station.
The name was previously spelled "Gipsy Tavern" photo, but this changed some time in mid-2014, as a new frontage with the spelling "Gypsy Tavern" was installed.
Note: On 12 August 2015 we saw them putting up a new sign for "The Phoenix". Not sure if anything else has changed.

According to a photo on the London Tramways website, at some point in the 20th century this address (and number 14 next door) was occupied by Mortimer's Fruit Stores. According to another photo on the same website, at another point these two addresses were occupied by Bowditch & Grant (a firm that provided services related to estate agency).
According to a photo on Flickr, it's been the Gipsy Tavern since at least c. 1985, at which point the frontage proclaimed it to be a "restaurant & wine bar". See also a photo of it in 1989.
Existence last checked in July 2015.
