David Walton left this review about Southwark Playhouse Bar
Visited 15/07/26. Visited previously 16/03/22
No cask. Keg offering of three from Sambrooks, the Poolside Pale Ale, the Pagoda Pilsner and the Session IPA plus the Capel Rd cider.
Bar in the entrance of the Southwark Playhouse by the box office. Concrete flooring with the bar counter on the wall opposite the entrance on the left-hand wall. Quite a bit of standing space around the bar counter. Tall table with tall stool seating on the wall facing the glass frontage and extending beyond the end of the back of the box office to then wrap around to the front of the venue to the right of the entrance with more tall tables and some regular tables and chairs. Quite high ceiling , no screens, and no music and not surprisingly quite a bit of photos of previous performances on the walls. Generally, a bit of an industrial feel for a theatre bar, but a very pleasant one.
