I got here at Saturday lunchtime and I think that I was the first member of the public to be served. They only opened for business on the Friday. A steady drift of customers came in during the hour or so that I was there. Owners and bar staff are friendly and happy to chat about the beers. This will become a regular haunt for me in London.

The pub is found in Southwark, Central London, SE1 9AG.

Small pub on the north side of Borough Market run by the same people who own the Utobeer bottled beer stall in the market itself. The bar has 3 hand pulls serving UK cask beers and 6 taps supplying continental and world beers. An extensive bottle beer selection is also available from the fridges behind the bar. The bar has stripped wood floors, pale beige walls and a historic Pilkington glass ceiling. A decked patio provides extra space and seating. Definitely an excellent addition to the Southwark beer scene.

We have visited this pub 151 times, seen 348 different beers and tried 249 of them.
