| Great pub. Went in here with the girlfriend recently - it was all warm and cosy with log fires, candles and fairy lights. Some good real beer and cider on tap...and a barrel of house red wine! Good staff and friendly locals. Must go back for the food, which looked really nice from the menu up on the wall. Larry_K - 6 Dec 2010 09:39 |
| This is a really decent pub. A "proper" pub, if you like. The oldest boozer in Brixton, now under new management. Been in a fair few times recently and it's becoming a bit of a local favourite. They've got two real ales on (Wandle and Landlord last time I was in) as well as an excellent cider selection (Old Rosie, Aspalls, Weston's and something else, all on tap) and a decent looking selection of wine. They seem to have sorted the food out good as well - my mates had a huge Sunday roast and there was a good range of meals and bar snacks up on the blackboard. A lot of people seemed to have come for the Sunday dinner and there was a nice relaxed atmosphere. It was also pretty lively on the Friday night we went in. There was DJ and a guy playing guitar for some of the evening, which was good and it wasn't too loud that you couldnt still have a conversation with your mates! There seemed to be quite a few people stopping in for a quick pre-gig beer, as it's really close to Brixton Academy / O2 Academy and less crowded than the more generic pubs on the High Street. They also have an outside courtyard area..a bit cold for this time of year (other than for a quick ciggie) but I'm sure that'll be really nice in the summer. All in all a really nice pub and well worth visiting if you're in the area. It's only about 5 mins from the tube. Brixton_Boozer - 1 Dec 2010 16:17 |
| Recently visited and found it under new management. Feels better and the roast dinners on a Sunday were well priced and great amounts of food. Nice cider too. guyguy - 17 Nov 2010 19:41 |
| Formerly the Far Side (and no doubt other names before that including, I think, the New Queens Head). The outside paintwork isn't exactly inspired, but the interior offers a fairly typical part-modernised South London pub experience. Smallish, horseshoe-shaped bar, with two handpumps offering Adnams Broadside and Explorer (the latter at £3.50, but not in the best condition and too warm on a hot summer day). The best feature is, perhaps, the modest patio beer garden. rpadam - 27 Jun 2010 22:12 |
