David Walton left this review about Waterloo Arms

Given Brix LDN wasn’t in fact my last unvisited open venue on the site on SE1, I popped here this evening as I hadn’t previously picked up on the fact that the old version of this had rebranded as a BrewDog outlet. I actually really like this as a station bar / pub - much more my taste than the epic and manic proportions of their establishment at the other end of the station. Thought they have done a good job with the illuminated planed staircase on the way down creating some classiness (relative use of the term applied to a station pub) that the previous incarnation failed to provide. Yes, usual range of their quaffs at very steep prices, but you can do worse with station pubs for a quick one before your train.

Now another branch of Brewdog, the latest in a long line of assorted hospitality ventures occupying what was once the gents toilet. Presumably not enough people were finding their way to 'The Sidings' so they wanted an outlet on the main station. They have brightened the place up a bit, but it is still just a Brewdog, with 16 or so taps offering various overpriced and over-flavoured Brewdog brews, with the occasional guest. It is what it is.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Beer House

A basement bar in a railway station (previously known as Coopers and then the Wellesley), so expectations should not be high. It is also not obvious to locate with the entrance now partially hidden behind one of the staircases up to the new gallery level. However, once inside, the refurbishment in a modern style is certainly an improvement. It is also a bit less crammed than most such SSP establishments, and it really isn't too bad. With five of the six handpumps in use on this visit, I found the 'house' beer The Beer House (£4.65, less 10% Bite Card discount), IPA and Abbot from Greene King, Doom Bar and London Pride available on this visit.
