Despite having lived in the area for 3 years and only just around the corner from this pub, I could count the number of times I've been there on one hand. The punters in this pub are quite frankly scary. I walk past this pub every single day, seeing people fighting and arguing outside is the norm. Nice building but there are so many 'nice' people in the area who wouldn't even consider going in there. I suspect when the owner asks what the locals want he asks his current customer base and is ignoring the vast number of potential customers who want a clean, safe friendly local pub selling good food and booze at reasonable prices. A pub that gets this right doesn't need tacky gimmicks like ladies night, curry night, happy hour and 2 for 1 night. I wish the new owner every success with this pub because it could be a fantastic local pub, it just needs to smarten up, go back to basics and ditch those downmarket gimmicks.

ladies and gentlemen,

We are currently replacing the rotten floor underneath the bar and about a million other things that need doing. We should be open early April if everything goes to plan and will have a lovely traditional english pub with a modern twist selling a good selection of our favorite beers, ciders and guest ales. We have a top kitchen and are hoping to provide good old simple grub daily and a smashin sunday lunch. Our philosophy is all about good drink, good food, good music and good times.

Please bear with us, we have a lot to do and we want to get everything right. We will be open as soon as possible.

Pub has been shut for about 10 days now. Hear it was end of lease?

Hope it gets new owners who give it a proper refurb back to a traditional-looking boozer, but I fear it will end up as flats, as most closed Lewisham pubs do these days.

bearing in mind that the ladywell tavern has only recently been taken over, the landlord has done a superb job so far in transforming the place. hes completely refurbished the pub, with the resteraunt/lounge already been completed and hes now working on the bar area. he has the best interests of the punters in mind as he constanly asks the punters wat they would like in the pub and tries his best to full fill these e.g, happy hour mon and wed 8-9, ladies night every fri 7-11, all drinks exept doubles 2 pound, quiz coming soon on a tues night, and there will also be a jazz night in the restaurant area every sunday night, which is starting shortly. as with the food menu, there is a bar menu available. and the restaurant is only open thursday fri and sat evening, and sunday day for dinners. as its only a recent restaurant there is always someone in there eating, be it only a couple or a large group, with sundays being normally the busiest time for food. these things take time, and only if everyone was a bit more patient as there was and still is a considerable amount of work that needs to be done, and im sure when its finished it will be a wonderful place for people of all ages to drink.

Half of the pub is now a fine dining establishment, with cocktails & expensive prices to match, and surprise surprise it was empty when I last looked in.

Bearing in mind that there has only been crisps on offer as food before, maybe some simple pub grub fare would have been a better first step?
