| A good addition to the New Cross pub scene, although I have recently started to go off this pub. The decor, atmosphere, beer garden, drinks selection are all very good, but the beer is terrible! There is a great selection, but at almost £4 a pint I expect it to be served in the correct glass (i.e I don't want Moretti in a Guiness glass), not a glass that has just come out the washer (warm) and most definately not flat!!! More often than not I have to take a beer back beacuse there is so little life in it and even then it's usually just average. At first I thought it was just me, but other people I've been out with have had a similar gripe. The Victoria in Peckam is owned by the same person and I've never had an issue with the beer there. C'mon NEw Cross House, stop Tweeting and sort it out! Esty - 19 Sep 2011 13:30 |
| Ex Goldsmith's Tavern. This really is the ultimate modern day pub for young professionals and students. Not sure if that's a good thing or not, but it's certainly the way pubs are heading these days. Huge inside with a lot of those raised padded bench seat things mixed in with normal tables and chairs. I spotted about 5 kitchen staff, so I take it they must do well on the food front. Symonds and Sharp's Orchard Ciders on draught, so a decent choice there. Four ale pumps were Sharp's Honey Gold (nice), Adnams, Hogs Back Tea and one other that I'd never seen before. Large beer garden out back has slightly raised decking with tables and chairs and a few long wooden benches. The most impressive part of the beer garden, is the large out building covered in hanging green vine. Looks very nice and you can climb it's stairs and sit at one of the two tables by the opened windows. Not really my ideal type of pub, but a much better option than the rotten beer of the nereby Hobgoblin, which for some twisted reason I suffered for 2 years, just because it had a beer garden.

| Been here twice since it opened and both times have been great. Plenty of decent beers on tap and in the fridge, and some good wines on the list as well. The in house beers are great, and it seems they change what's on tap fairly regularly. The pizza's are top; freshly prepared and top quality ingredients. Sevice was great too - when it wasn't busy, the bar staff would come from behind the bar to give table service, all with a smile! This will soon become a regular of mine, and from the looks of things, it will be a number of other people's too Ollie_cs - 25 Jul 2011 13:36 |
| This is a great pub. The ales are very good and unusual, including some brewed at a sister pub. They're about £3.50 or so, I think. The outdoor area is lovely, and the staff are very polite and enthusiastic. I loved the old Tavern and was so disappointed with the refurb- a few of us went once and never returned. The New Cross House makes up for that. I can't wait to try the pizza- it's like being 6 and having Disneyland opening next door. cablebasher - 19 Jul 2011 23:34 |
| I agree with the review below, but being an ale drinker, I haven't noticed the £4 pint. The ale selection is very good, and they like to try new beers here too. I guess it's the fancier lagers that hit the £4 mark. The Grand Union chain charge £4 for Fosters and Kronenbourg (with no ales on tap), and I refuse to step foot in one of them (and I also refuse to accept that the £4 Fosters is becoming the norm - it isn't if you go to good pubs). Another good thing about this pub is the beer garden and 'tree house' (with table football). I've been coming here since 1998, and didn't realise this garden was going to waste (it was a bit of a different crowd in the Goldsmiths Tavern 1 (pre-2003 refurb) days). So, another pub in New Cross (along with the Royal Albert) that you can take your snobby middle-class mates to (a good thing - not everyone gets the whole 'new Shoreditch' vibe). Jokes aside though, I think you'll find that New Cross is the original Shoreditch. Real artists an bands have been doing very well here in New Cross for decades. What good comes out of Shoreditch?
