Bucking Fastard left this review about Long Haul

A small micro in a former shop unit,there are tables and chairs outside,three high tables to the interior left and three lower level tables to the right with the small bar at the end.Down a corridor are the loos.The landlady is friendly,chatty and keeps order and directed me to sit with two gents using a four person table,kind given it was pelting outside.
There were three cask ales drawn from stillage in Kent Old Jamaica Toffee Stout,Three Acres Session and Kent Green Giant ,a 6% green hopped IPA (NBSS 4). Keg options were Wiper & True Kaleidoscope and Ansbach & Hobday London Black .Overall some interesting beers fully jusifying the GBG 2025 listing.
I liked this friendly micro,dogs welcome,lively with a constant rotation of both ales and customers.Make sure you pop in if passing by.

Blue Scrumpy left this review about Long Haul

Micropub situated in a parade of shops some way out of Bexleyheath town centre. Apparently it was a tattoo parlour the last time I was in this neck of the woods visiting the nearby Yacht in April 2019. It opened as a micropub in 2020.

There are very few surprises inside. It's a single square room with a bar and toilets at the far end. Blackboards at the bar listed the cask ales and a craft beer. The cask ale selection was Titanic Plum Porter, No Frills Joe Ernest & Fyne Ales Jarl. It was only when I sat down that I noticed a separate blackboard on the right-hand side of the entrance door, that listed real ciders. Turner's Medium & Rhubarb Cider, Biddenden Dry, Dudda's Tun Apricot Cider & Lilley's Rum Cider were on offer. Whilst my Ernest was a decent beer, I'd have probably chosen a cider, if I'd noticed it early enough.

The owner is a very friendly lady and there was just one other customer, also female. It made a pleasant change to be outnumbered by women in a pub! Both were keen to chat.

There is a large area set aside for outdoor drinking at the front, which could certainly swell the numbers if needed. Although, I'm not sure about the shiny black chairs!

I do like a micropub and this one is better than average.
