| Was in here Saturday night. Fine. It is a 'spoons. Better than Balham, worse than Victoria. Unbeatable prices, coz it is a 'spoons; shit atmos and clientele, coz it is a 'spoons. mfawkner - 26 Aug 2008 13:41 |
| From the outside and indeed, upon entering, The Beehive seems like any other old-style Wetherspoon. The usual furnishing, groups huddled together and ales on offer breath an air of familiarity. However, that’s where the similarities end. Notices for CCTV adorns the walls and as for the gents? Well, now there is a story. There is none of the usual advertisements within and the two cubicles have low metal doors. The kind you can peer your head over – not particularly reassuring! The beer selection was reasonable and my Spitfire tasted fine, but I most definitely couldn’t settle here. I visited last Wednesday (12th Dec) prior to a gig at the nearby Academy and whilst I can perhaps envisage supping a couple here beforehand again, I certainly don’t relish a return visit.

| I popped in here for a quick drink in July 2005 whilst I was looking at house in Brixton. This was a few days after the unfortunate shooting up the road in Stockwell. This pub was quite an experience, and had the atmosphere best described as the pilot light being on, just waiting for the explosion... Dr.Evil - 13 Aug 2007 21:35 |

| This is a rather typical but small Wetherspoons and one would say rather inadequate for the area that it caters for. Only yards from the Brixton Academy and close to the market and shopping areas, it attracts a large number of varied punters and gets particularly rammed prior to Academy events. The interior is long, narrow and furnished in the usual ‘Spoons style with a few interesting old local photos and a displays. Although small, the beer selection is eclectic enough to suit most people’s tastes but then anyone on this site knows what to expect from a Wetherspoons, be it good or bad. The non smoking rear is divided up by wood and glass screens making a series of snugs, one with a fireplace and is probably the best bet to find a seat. I have never encountered any problems with service and this place has done me well on a few occasions although it must be said that there is not a lot of competition in the area unless you know where to go.
