Standard micro pub shop conversion that had a couple of things to make it memorable. Most of the produce seemed to be from Kent - my chose Hop Fuzz ale - and the crisps. Each of the high tables had a different newspaper on my Saturday visit.

Beers on gravity dispense from a cool room behind the bar. Make your choice from a chalk board.

Concur with Steve here in terms of this being a very decent pub offering a decent range of cask beers from a reasonable range of suppliers. Refreshing that there is nothing vaguely mainstream from anywhere other than small breweries. I got here a bit after 8pm and pleasantly quiet but not so quiet that closure for the evening was threatened. The topography is as described by Steve.

On my visit were three quaffs from Tonbridge (Pond Life -a session bitter, Old Chestnut Best Bitter and Das Kolner, what was described as a session golden ale). There was an IPA from Mad Cat called Big Stik and an imperial stout from Goocher’s at what I thought was a gimme at 4.5% abv!

Small number of non Monday opening venues in SE9 to tick off in my hitherto most unvisited SE postcode!

A short walk away from Eltham station away from the High Street but it is well worth the trip. This is a very good Micro Ale house in a former plumber’s shop. As has been mentioned its bigger than most with the main bar you walk into and then a second room around to the left of the bar. Five ales straight from the barrels in the cold room for my visit, which were Tonbridge Pond Life Session Bitter and Blonde Ambition Golden Ale, Mad Cat Unsinkable Sam Best Bitter, Iron Pier Wealdway IPA and a very decent Musket Brewery Powder Burn Porter, with prices from £4 to £5 a pint depending on abv.
I thought this was one of the better examples of the genre.
