Ian Mapp left this review about King Charles I

If there was ever a reason to promote the good beer guide - this would be it. I would never have considered it, if there wasnt the recommendation. And hour on a Saturday afternoon and I consider it one of my favourite pubs.

Loved the interior - small, wood panelled, interesting nick nacks and a although not a fan of signs banning things, I can make an exception for "No racists, sexists or fascists".

The beer was interesting - with four for five casks not previously seen. I tried a couple - the pick, Southwark Brewery Vista - an American Pale Ale. Prices the cheapest of three pubs visited today.

But it the people that make pubs and this is a real locals pub. Included in three conversations in my visit - one that was eye watering.

Entered as a stranger. Left as a friend :-) I should work in marketing.

A great pub.

A pub I've been to a couple of times in the past but omitted to leave a review for some unknown reason,well documented below with several recent reviews to which I concur. A great proper boozer with decent beer, my latest visit three weeks ago saw a lineup of Southwark LPA, Twickenham Daisy Cutter, Siren Memento and an excellent Park Field Haze, the fifth handle was dispensing Seacider. An easy 8/10 pub and a must visit when in the area. Oh and the jukebox is pretty good as well.

An excellent traditional and basic boozer in a side street, with a good range of ales and lots of old wood panelling. Quite amusing that they seem to have simulated an old nicotine-stained ceiling, which of course is not something you find nowadays! On handpump were Neptune Abyss and White Horses, Kent Maia, Siren Memento and Seacider. A good pub worth visiting.
