Regular beers: Southey Best Bitter

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

Converted from the Mr Lawrence Wine Bar, this pub originally re-opened in 2014 under the ownership of Late Knights Brewery of Penge. With Late Knights Brewery ceasing trading in August 2016 the beer range here changed to include one of that brewery's reincarnation as Southey, along with brews from other micro-breweries plus ciders. Wines, spirits and soft drinks are also available. Food is available from the next door Pizza operation. This is a narrow deep venue, wooden boarded throughout. The front room is attractively dark wood wall panelled to head height. It is a deep step down to a long corridor with a shelf which accommodates upright drinking and this leads to the rear room which provides more traditional seating. There is a small covered patio garden at the back which is ideal for smokers. The real ale and cider menu is provided on a blackboard high on the wall to the right of the bar. Real ale and cider (not sure if always real) are sold from 4 handpumps and 9 keg taps, all located several yards from the entrance door. Card payment only here, cash not accepted. Re-opened late March 2024 after a short closure period. Expected to be adding a pie menu imminently.
