Runner-up Bromley CAMRA Pub of the Year 2014 and 2015.
The pub is much improved following renovation in 2012. There is only one regular beer, but the other five handpumps serve a changing range of beers, mainly from non-mainstream breweries. The cosy atmosphere is enhanced by a real fire in winter.
The many activities include comedy nights, live music, a book club, a knitting group, painting classes and even bingo. The pub also has a range of board games.
Sister pub to the Pelton Arms in Greenwich.
Historic Interest
Originally built in the 1860s following the coming of the railway in 1858 and the opening of nearby Shortlands station (originally called Bromley Road). This triggered the development of Shortlands as a suburb out of what was originally farmland. The public house was constructed following the channelling of the adjacent River Ravensbourne, which was prone to flooding. The building was subsequently remodelled in the 1900s.
This Pub serves 5 changing beers and 1 regular beer.
