Not long after noon on a Sunday and this huge pub is crowded. Every table occupied and I had to stand awkwardly by a fruit machine.

Woodforde's - Wherry3.80GoodREALLY chilled so much so that condensation remained on the outside of the glass all the way down. The Wherry still managed to show me a few of its flavours

Website.

The pub is found in Bromley, Greater London, BR1 1DS.

Just set back from the street in Westmoreland Place by a mini shopping mall. Virtually opposite Bromley South railway station. A real barn of a pub on one ground floor level and surprisingly for a 'Spoon's the toilets are at walk-in ground floor level too. At one time a Lloyds No 1 now seems to be branded as a Wetherspoon's.

We have visited this pub 5 times, seen 25 different beers and tried 6 of them.
