Cask here was three choices of Buxton SPA pale ale, Hobson Town Crier, a blonde / golden ale and New River Chadwell Best Bitter. Three real ciders, the passion fruit cider from SeaCider, Turners Medium cider and a dry cider from Perry's (might have been a cider / perry hybrid)! Keg offerings were Lost & Grounded Keller Pils, the Iron Pier Session IPA, the Juice Forsyth from BrewYork, a fruited IPA and the London Black from Anspach & Hobday.
Shop fronted tap room not too far from Highams Park station. Some pavement seating at the front that was super popular on my early evening visit. Inside the bar counter is in the rear left-hand corner in this modern bare boarded venue. A few small tables down the left-hand side served by regular chairs and upturned kegs. There is a DIY wooden banquette down the right-hand wall serving similar small round tables. The walls are adorned with art for sale and there is some shelving and a beer fridge in the rear right-hand corner housing cans and bottles for take away. All told a reasonable tap room but, in the pack, rather than one of the great ones!

Small but busy micropub with customers spilling onto outdoor seating on the pavement. It had more of a continental cafe-culture feel to it than the average micropub, whilst still fitting the definition of the latter.
Just the two real ales were on - Fyne Ales Hurricane Jack & Magic Rock Ringmaster. The 3 real ciders were SeaCider Medium & Mango Cider & Turner's Dry. The craft beer option was Deya Big Loose Plan. Bottles and cans are also available.
It's a dog friendly pub in what felt like quite a trendy location, having never been to Highams Park before. But as micropubs go, I wasn't entirely convinced.
