Brew Wharf, Borough Market, SE1

Souless barn but the Brewharf beers are the big draw.New beers about every 2 weeks and i have had some of my fav beers here.Food led rather than beer seems to be the theme.Camra discount of 40p a pint makes this the cheapest beer in the area..Yes really but are you a member.They have got rid of the foreign keg selection and now only have about 8 Meantime keg beers on.

Just not my sort of place.Once through the glass doors,the cavernous interior is full of refectory type tables ,more bar than pub and the wooden floor seems to amplify the noise made by the youngish customer base to uncomfortable levels.The long rear bar has a lot of keg taps with a wide selection of Meantime beers ,but only two handpumps serving Brew Wharf Erebus Stout and Rudebwoy Red on my trip,neither distinguished and both pricey.Further along from the bar is the brew kit behind a vast glass window,so you dont experience stange smells and finally a "wait to be seated" dining area in the same ubermodern furniture. My impression was it's more of a tourist trap rather than a pub with excellent ale.Maybe I am just too old to enjoy a place like this,but there is no reason for me to return.

Seems a deliberate stark contrast of the old and the new, lots of old brickwork near Borough Market with a modern stylish interior. Maybe a bit slick, but again a contrast in this area. It almost works, but the high ceilings in the railway arch mean it lacks the character of the nearby Wheatsheaf. Various beers available, with two of their own on handpull

As has been said by others, rather lacking in atmosphere inside. Has been closed during the Olympics having been taken over by an American banking concern for corporate purposes [told that pumps had been removed]. Is due to re-open back to normal on Tuesday 28th August. Although not prominently displayed there is a 10% discount given on their own brews upon production of a CAMRA card.

Another pub that was new to us for a London visit, but it was disappointing in that the price for their own beer brewed on the premises was £4 a pint for a 4% beer, and I did not think that was justified. Too cold giving it a bland uninteresting flavour. Extremely popular, but it was getting on to closing time for offices etc. Toilets could do with more prominent signs.

Large pub catering mainly for the diners. Brews it's own beer but whenever I've called they have only ever had one on handpump. As a northerner some of the prices in London are a surprise to me at times, but with working down here so often I've got used to it. Until I bought a pint in here for the first time that is. What a rip off. It's a pleasant enough place to call in, especially in Summer as there's plenty of places to sit/stand outside. Only call in occasionally now, even when working in the area, as I refuse to support the rip off attitude. Not that they'll notice, it's always busy. You have been warned.

I didn’t really like this :the idea is wonderful-under the arches, a micro brewery on site, interesting beer, but cold and clinical. I found it achingly trendy and eye wateringly expensive: my pint of “Field of Dreams”, an “anglo/US hybrid beer” was £3.90, and much too cold. Having held the understated glass in my hot and provincial hands for ten minutes, the beer actually tasted quite interesting, but by then I was wishing I was elsewhere.

As a Vinopolis visitor yesterday I popped in here with me mates clutching our taster tickets and tried one of everything. I didn't really like any of them, the Weiss and Raspberry beers in particular were akin to Panda Pops. The staff are also in a terrible hurry to clear away the empties which I found off-putting. The prices for the beers were also sky-high and the interior is quite cold and clinical. Not a fan.

I probably chose the wrong time to visit this pub for the first as last time as it was the Thursday office party night before Christmas so this place was full of diners and young city nobs. I call this a pub, but there was a kitchen area splitting the bar from a dining room and there were far more waiting staff buzzing around than bar staff. The beers were more interesting than the norm, but after imagining this place without the clientele that were present I still didn't like it and there are many far superior pubs in this area.

Having spent a couple of hours in recently, I'm still not entirely clear what this establishment is trying to be. Part restaurant, part diner, part bar and part tourist attraction, it doesn't really succeed in any of these areas. We took a seat near the large open kitchen which was doing very little in the way of business and scanned the extensive beer menu, which comprised of a page of draught ales (most of which were seemingly unavailable) and three or four pages of outrageously expensive bottled beers (Duvel - £5.00, Erdinger Dunkel - £6.65). I went for a pint of Meantime London Stout (£4.00!) which tasted okay despite being served too cold. I had actually hoped to try their in-house brew 'Exit 14B', but this was off, which I thought was a pretty poor effort. The bar staff seemed fairly unsure of the beers on offer and struggled to make a recommendation to one of my friends. There were also plenty of staff buzzing around our table hoping we would order food, presumably as they had nothing else to do. Not the total disaster that I had expected, but nothing to recommend either, and its rating drops significantly by virtue of their obscene pricing policy.
