The Foresters Arms, Forest Hill, SE23

David Walton left this review about The Foresters Arms

Visited 26/11/25. Visited previously as All Inn One on 04/12/21.

Two hand pumps providing two of Fauna's cask ales, the Meadow Maker Golden Ale and the Bushy Tail Best Bitter. The keg offering was a mix of their own (the Tidal Haze Pale, the Portering About porter, the Pango Table Beer, the Wild Dog IPA, the New Day NEIPA, the Chimp Pale Ale and the Cheetah Lager) and guests (Madri, Hepcat, Pale Fire from Pressure Drop, the Amber from Bird House, Happy Easy Pale from Cloudwater, the Iford Wild Juice Session cider, Lucky Saint and Guinness).

Large venue by Forest Hill station. Bare boarded, entrance area has a bar counter but no taps or pumps on that section. This area has some regular tables and chairs and some large Chesterfield sofas. There is a serving hatch at the back of the space and plenty of board games lying around. An open door to the immediate right of the entrance I took, provides access to the much larger side of the venue with a long right-angled bar counter starting on the immediate left of the open door. Mixture of regular and tall tables in front of the part of the bar counter that had the taps and pumps and likewise in front of the other part of the bar counter, but this part had a concrete floor with a shuffleboard tucked into the rear right-hand corner. A large TV on the rear bare bricked wall was showing recorded footy sans sound, that provided in the venue by a Motown compendium. There was a beer fridge to the end of the bar counter providing takeaways from the owner brewery. Not really encountered the brewery previously but though decent and indeed they have a fine establishment here.
