Real Ale Ray left this review about Elephant & Castle

Very close to the Lewes Arms which is a good double header. The interior of this pub is on the large size, with two main rooms supported by a central bar. The lounge area on the right hand side had a tiled floor, pews and large ornate tables. I thought the wood carved panel around the main entrance to be an unusual antiquity [see photos]. My Big Hug Brewing Pave the Way was an excellent choice.

Bucking Fastard left this review about Elephant & Castle

A large street corner boozer ,the interior winds around the back of the central bar with a games room to the left with a sports flatscreen,pool table and table football and a BHA flag looking a little sad.The right side of the pub has some large tables and the food revolves around burgers but everyone inside was just drinking.
The ale selection on my trip was Thornbridge Wild Swan and Jaipur IPA (NBSS 4),Big Hug Pave the Way,Harvey's Sussex Best together with a Lilly's cider.I enjoyed the boozer atmosphere and would include it on any crawl around town.

Moby Duck left this review about Elephant & Castle

Although the pub interior has been somewhat stripped out over the passing years it still retains some nice woodworkas well as some character. Six handpumps offered the beers listed by BF in the review below, I went for the Jaipur which is usually a reliable beer and was good.
Decent pub.
