I agree with others that this pub, hidden in the lanes opposite Greenwich DLR station has a lot of kerb appeal that sadly is not replicated internally.
The small modern interior is nice enough but I also found it all a bit twee. Having a fine afternoon I much preferred the multi tiered garden space out back.
Four pumps on the bar but only two in operation with Master brew and a decent Whitstable Bay available. Does not open till 4.00pm on weekdays.

Like Rex, I thought the visual appeal of this mid-19th century pub and its location would be home to fine things, but appearances flatter to deceive, the sight of a Shep’s sign hardly lifting the spirits.
The small interior is smart enough though modern ‘old’ and a bit twee, with floral Arts & Crafts-style wallpaper, boarded floor, traditional furniture, Victorian-style sconces and spun copper shades with filament bulbs over the bar, then a few framed prints; a room to the rear right-hand side was done up in a trendy style, patronised by a younger clientele, those to the front being an older bunch, one incredibly loud Spaniard having a conversation in Spanish with a more muted barmaid.
A typical Shep’s ale range, with Masterbrew at £2.35 a half and as good as it’s ever going to get, served by the aforementioned barmaid.
This isn’t a bad pub, but you expect better, the ale choice not helping; the Morden Arms is around the corner.

Immaculate back street (where the houses are no doubt in the millions!) pub.
Saturday afternoon and I was the only punter. Number of humans doubled by the silent barstaff, obviously wondering how she was going to get through the day.
Its a shame, as the decor and beer (shepherds neame) were both first class. You could even save the price of the Times, read theirs and help contribute to the local economy.
