Waterloo Tap, SE1

The smallest of arches, its actually a good use of what was presumably just an open walkthrough arch between streets. Clinical with stools and high tables, bar under one wall with cask and many keg offerings.

In the 2018 Good Beer Guide, so I came for the tick knowing its not really my cup of tea. Hosted in a railway arch it has a beer keller feel to the place. High bences to encourage communal drinking. God knows how many beers on.... 20? All chalked up above the bar with a one word description. A fiver for a Adnams (one of the few recognised breweries) bicycle kick - described as Pale, more like lager. Decent enough pint. I've got my tick, so I'll be off somewhere more traditional next time in the area. Visit blogged at http://bit.ly/2Mn8x00
