| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Empire - Gunpowder Porter | 4.80 | | Black porter with quite a bitter, malty character. Some hoppiness but the main bitterness comes from smokey, roast malts. My score 15/20. |
| Yorkshire Dales - Nappa Scar | 4.00 | | Light brown/amber bitter with an assertive hop bitterness that is not really to my taste. Uncompromisingly dry and hoppy finish. My score 13/20. |

The pub is found in Southwark, Central London, SE1 9AA.
Famous pub opposite Borough Market in Stoney Street. Central bar has many beers which change on a regular basis and are mostly from UK micros. Can be extremely busy. Refurbishment some time ago and now there is one main room with a side area with seating as well. Many customers use the pavement outside to stand and enjoy their drinks. Really a must for anyone taking in London pubs. Sports 12 handpumps with 6 in each of the 2 distinct bar serving areas plus a further 4 for cider dispense at the far rear. Upstairs restaurant bar area too, mainly for lunchtime use. In 2019 the real ale choice was drastically reduced to 4 and the cider was withdrawn. Downstairs toilets.
