Blue Scrumpy left this review about Jars Bar
Jars Bar is not a place that I'd considered going to when joining in the May Day Parade. We'd got to the Market Yard area well before the parade itself and finding both SALT and Jam Circus still closed, we stopped off for some food at a Chinese takeaway instead. As the parade overtook us, we followed its route and noticed Jars Bar open in one of the railway arches next to Deptford station.
Run by a friendly Ukrainian guy, this is an excellent craft beer outlet with 6 tap beers and numerous other offerings in cans and bottles in fridges. Also of note was the number of different types of homemade vodkas in various containers behind the bar. The many weird and wonderful varieties made the place feel a bit like an old fashioned pharmacy.
Seating indoors was by way of cushions on upturned barrels, whilst there is also bench seating outdoors in the Market Yard itself. It was a shame that the vast majority of the May Day Parade bypassed this little place.
Beers on tap were Orbit Nico, Vault City Iron Brew & Toasted Coconut Lemon Drizzle Doughnut, Deya Steady Rolling Man, Phantom Out of Time & Siren Anniversary DPA. A boxed cider (Pilton Labyrinth) could also be found in one of the fridges.

A small archway bar in the thriving area next to the train station. Most of the seating space is outside which was fine and shaded in the 30 degree heat. Five Craft keg taps and I opted for a Howling Hops Lager, Barley Pop which hit the spot in the temperature. Not bad.
