A brilliant pub. With a great band who live upstairs. I think they own the pub, I’m not sure. But they’re called something like mystic mood orchestra or something and they were fab.

It’s very out of the way, if you come from London Bridge as we did. It was quite a shock to realise how close to Borough station this place is so get off there instead.

It’s the perfect pub for sitting outside and catching up with friends. But without the band it might just be an average pub so I’d find out when they were on next. They do beer out of cans and cheap white wine, but you’ll have a great time if you want somewhere of the beaten track.

This is a real neighbourhood find, you feel as though you are seated in your neighbours front room which has a bar fitted at one end. This place is tiny and gets rammed at weekends and most week nights too. Friendly staff and a variety of different bottled and cask beers. Occasional bands but more a boozer that you can happily wile away an evening or alternatively a Sunday. Great staff, board games and if you are waiting for a late date a number of books to amuse you.
