well.....Another fine place gone to the bottomless pit they call hell. Arrogant staff, rude customers and even worse karaoke.I do not know why this fine place has fell apart. I visited this bar years ago and it was really nice and everything was going for it

Drank here regularly for almost 10 years now. It's tatty, it's had/has rude staff, sometimes the beer's off and the karoake's death by audio, but...in all this time I've seen trouble once outside and once inside, and the staff did the right thing both times. There's drugs about, this is Catford, but you could take your parents there and they'd not notice. Great pub for a crowd of mates to set up camp, watch the big screen footy, surf the jukebox, claim a pool table and chew the fat, just about the only pub I've found in the area that's both lively and welcoming to all, there's no dead-eyed stares from the locals towards strangers. Off there again tonight, hopefully someone there will read this and I'll get a free pint.

I really liked the jazz I saw here one Sunday. Very laid-back 50s-style jam. Not what I expect from Catford at all. Relaxed and fiendly. Sat outside under an awning to smoke and watch all Catford go by. For what that's worth.

since the new owners took charge of this pub in the summer of 2007 it has become a joy to spend time here. the clientele are diverse and all friendly, the staff polite and helpful and the entertainment varied, very professional and enjoyable without being overbearing, whether it be karaoke, one of its many guest djs or the jazz sessions on sunday afternoons. it is also a great place to watch football without having drunk loud mouthed yobs to contend with.

What aq carsey!
The manageress was a foul mouthed horrible little woman,, refused to serve a poor guy who didn't say please.
The assistant manager sat in the bar with his feet on the table.It felt like I was in Nigeria.
The beer was terrible, the Guinness head was grey, obviously the lines had not been cleaned for months, dodgy dope smokers outside and cocaine sniffers in the toilet. Felt unsafe, visit for novelty value only,surprised the police haven't shut the place.

A good little boozer to watch Sky football. Never over crouded so you always seem to get a seat for the game. I like it for a Monday night game and a few pints

I used to come here before going to the now flattened dog track, so I've been in here a fair few times over the years and all in all it's a pretty good pub. Yeah, a few dodgy geezers about doing dodgy deals but this is a friendly atmospheric place and not as threatening as some new comers who don't know it might think. Used from time to time by South Londons various football tribes on match days but I've never seen any touble in here.

Brought in my family, asked for and received menus. Ten minutes later, after deciding on lunches for five, was told off-handedly that they won't serve minors.
The family operating the Ram was actually friendly. Nice change.

My local. Good for passing the time while waiting for the train or delaying going home. Pool table runs true and the competition is fierce but good spirited. Barras menu. Cheap drinks if that's what you are after or 'jacks' for those who aren't. Has it's share of dodgey geesa's and old timers in the corner but all in all a friendly bunch. To far out of town to attract the crowd that would make the pub 'go off' so to speak but i guess that's good for getting served at the bar. the sooner smoking is banned the better ........ or the a/c gets an overhall ........

The Copperfield is a great local. Wide range of tap beers and friendly staff. Reasonable prices and nice food. Big screen, pool table and good atmosphere. Alongside Catford and Catford Bridge overland stations.
