David Walton left this review about Duke Of Catford

Impressive outside, less impressive inside is the one phrase summary of this recently reopened venue. It was moderately busy on my visit a bit before 8.30pm so I would be sure it needs to do massively better than this later in the week for this to not be another failure here. It is indeed an impressive space, attractive decor inside and an interesting space to spend some time for sure. The bar greets you as you walk in the front door, but of a shame you aren’t greeted a bit more by the quaffs on offer!

Those pesky quaffs were a bit of a let down. The small bank of hand pumps tantalised me with Pride and Hophead but neither available. There was a cast of thousands on the keg beer front. A trio of Beavertown stalwarts, Guinness, Inch’s cider, Brixton Reliance Pale Ale and more than a half dozen lagers.

I am so glad this venue has reopened and it would be lovely if this incarnation here survives. It is an impressive location and please do visit here, not that our collective efforts will make the difference here on viability. Sadly I can’t recommend on the beer front and use that to tempt you here.

Been drinking in the goose on and off for 20 years except when I was banned 1997-9 but that's a different story.

It's doing okay at the moment. Staff are friendly. Toilets are a bit dark but okay. Beer is reasonable it's cheaper than the ram but more exp than spoons. All in all its a descent pub I'm often in there on a Sunday nursing a hangover and watching the footy - can't complain.

Peace.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Black Horse & Harrow

Fine-looking landmark pub with an interesting façade featuring a host of architectural details. Less interesting inside, which has been opened out into a large 'L' shape with run-of-the-mill furniture and decor, but there is a grand ceiling in the rear seating / dining area. Fair-sized, and partly-covered, patio beer garden to the rear. Standard Stonegate menu. Pride, Doom Bar, Bombardier, Hobgoblin Gold and Old Golden Hen (£2.70, and in surprisingly good form) available from five of six handpumps. Gives the impression of being a bit rough-and-ready, but the door staff at 18:00 seemed a bit unnecessary (or, at least, a bit early).
