great pub, lots of characters, no frills, well kept beer, usual suspect lagers!!

Visited last night - not very impressed at all, I'm afraid. Yes, the internal decor, particularly in the room to the left, will appeal to traditionalists such as myself and people who detest chainy corporate pubs, but I didn't feel particularly welcome in here.

This was mainly because there was a group of about half a dozen or so "lads" hanging round the entrance and this dominated and shaped the whole atmosphere of the pub. One chap in particular looked like he was acting as a kind of unofficial bouncer.

As I squeezed past to visit the toilets ( which are in the other bar ) one of the group, commenting on my unironed white shirt said " wotcha mate, had an argument with your iron ?" in a manner that suggested that engaging in friendly banter was not the order of the day. My gut reaction, which comes from over 25 years of drinking in pubs the length and breadth of the land, was to smile weakly and carry on as normal.

There was only one real ale on - a London Pride that was not particularly good and, all in all, despite the rather quirky and interesting decor, my inclination would be to give this pub a miss next time.

An interesting little place, which is unlike any of the pubs nearby. The Gastropub/winebar style of nearby Bermondsey Street isn't present here, nor the accessability of the Borough High Street bars, nor the "home away from the Millwall den" feel of some of pubs towards Long Lane. An eclectic mix of decorations, Jesus icons, Buddha statues, sporting trophies, old maps... it seems to be lively and works well.

The beer was okay, and there's life without overcrowding. I'll be back..

One of the best pubs in London for my money. Friendly staff, eclectic mix of regulars, fantastic juke-box, comfy seats, cosy, quirky and genuine. Everyone I've brought here has loved it. When I booked my 30th birthday do here, the landlord told me, "Fine, but tell them if they want cocktails, they'll have to f-off somewhere else". My kind of landlord.
