Not much to add to the descriptions below other than it isn’t a Youngs establishment any more!
So no cask options - the hand pumps remain on the bar merely as a pub relic for this place. Small range of typical keg offerings, I couldn’t find anything higher up the food chain than John Smiths.
Had the racing on the TV’s but as much as I am partial to that the volume was turned up way too loud in an attempt to elevate the tea time Monday very modest cards to a grander level.
Stage in the far corner for live music here and pool table and dart board remains but un-utilised during my brief visit. Not the most depressing venue I have ever been to but with the lack of natural light (this isn’t a basement venue and it was during daylight hours) but it would be up there with them. Precisely zero chance of a return here.

Been drinking in the ram for 20 years now and seen lots of changes.
Its not everyone's cup of tea but I have the opinion that if you want a swanky pub go to the CCC. The Ram is a quality place.
You know what you're getting. Karaoke night is always fun. The toilets are a lot better these days. And meet some interesting characters on every visit. Everything about the place is 6/10 it's perfect for a Friday binge or a Sunday hair of dog.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Black Cat
Surprisingly large unbranded Youngs (Ram) pub at the entrance to the brutalist architecture of Catford Shopping Centre. Wedge-shaped interior on two levels separated by three steps. Rather 70s appearance (and music to match when I was there) and no natural light inside. Doom Bar supplementing Ordinary (£2.75) and Special from three of four handpumps in use.
