The Bolthole Micropub is a cosy little gem in Welling, perfect for a relaxed catch-up over quality drinks and a friendly chat.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home as soon as you walk in.
  • They've got a fantastic selection of drinks, from a great range of beers and gins to something for every taste.
  • The outside seating is a real treat on warmer days, giving you that lovely al fresco vibe without leaving the neighbourhood.
  • It's got a proper community feel, with events like the monthly pub quiz that bring people together and make it more than just a quick stop.
  • Being dog-friendly means you can pop in with your furry mate, which is always a bonus for us animal lovers.
Areas for Improvement
  • It's a bit tucked away, so if you're not local, it might not be the easiest spot to get to, which is a shame for those further afield.
  • Booking can be a tad fiddly—they only check emails twice a day and insist on advance notices for inside tables, which might lead to disappointment if you're spontaneous.
  • They're closed on Mondays and have early evenings during the week, so it's not ideal if you're after a late-night hangout.
  • The bar shuts 30 minutes before closing time, which can feel a bit rushed when you're trying to savour that last pint.

  • Prices aren't clearly specified, so it could end up being a bit on the pricey side for a casual night out.

Berry and Barrel is a charming little micropub in Eltham that's all about that cosy vibe, with a great range of drinks and friendly service, though it has a few niggles like overly sweet cocktails.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is absolutely cosy and welcoming, making it a perfect spot for a relaxed evening with friends.
  • They've got a fantastic selection of drinks, including craft beers, real ales, fine wines, and some cracking cocktails that hit the spot if you're in the mood for something special.
  • It's dog-friendly, which is brilliant if you're popping in with your furry mate for a pint.
  • The tie-up with local pizza places means you can grab some tasty pizzas and sides, adding a nice food option to your visit.
  • The staff are really friendly and attentive, always up for a chat and making sure you're looked after properly.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some of the cocktails can be a bit too sweet for those who prefer something drier, like a classic martini – it might not suit everyone's taste.
  • There's no menu for the beers, which can make it tricky if you're after something specific and need to ask around.
  • It can feel a tad quiet at times, especially if you're hoping for a lively buzz, so it might not always have that full pub energy.
  • A few folks have mentioned inconsistencies with certain drink orders, so it's worth double-checking if you have a particular preference.

The Royal Standard is a lovely spot in Blackheath with cracking service, scrumptious food, and a cracking beer garden, though it can be a tad pricey – ideal for a relaxed pint and meal near Greenwich.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The service is absolutely spot-on – friendly, polite staff who make you feel right at home, like they did for Adam with his excellent barman experience.
  • The food is a real treat, with rave reviews for dishes like truffle fries, camembert, and prawns that sound utterly delicious and leave you wanting more.
  • It's got a brilliant atmosphere, complete with good music, live bands now and then, and that amazing beer garden that's perfect for soaking up the sun.
  • The location is a winner, right near Blackheath and Greenwich Park, making it easy to pop in after a wander, and it's even dog-friendly for those with furry mates.
  • They've got a welcoming vibe overall, with a private function room for parties or gatherings, as Trinh N found out with her schoolgirls' bash – everyone had a fantastic time.
Areas for Improvement
  • The food can feel a bit overpriced for what you get, as Kate pointed out with her lunch; it's tasty but might not justify the cost for everyday eats.
  • There are occasional hiccups with the dishes, like the issue Kate had with her pie, though the team handled it well, it's still something to keep in mind.
  • While most experiences are positive, it might not suit everyone if you're after something super budget-friendly or consistently flawless every visit.

  • It closes at 11 PM every night, which might feel a tad early if you're up for a late one.
  • With only 78 reviews in total, it hasn't got the buzz of some bigger spots, so you might be taking a chance if you're new to the area.

Eltham GPO is a charming pub in the heart of Eltham that's come on leaps and bounds with its refurb and events, though it has a few rough edges that keep it from being perfect for every outing.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The refurbishment is spot on – it's turned a former post office into a cosy, welcoming spot that's perfect for a quiet pint by the fire or catching up with mates in the beer garden.
  • They've got a cracking Sunday roast with succulent meats or a tasty veggie option, complete with fluffy roasties and proper gravy – it's become a real highlight for weekend get-togethers.
  • There's always something on, like live music, quiz nights, or events for special occasions, making it a lively choice if you're after some entertainment without venturing too far.
  • The menu offers a nice variety of dishes, from pub classics to more adventurous bites like Korean chicken, and it's clear they've put effort into improving the food and service lately.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can sometimes feel a bit bloke-heavy behind the bar, which might put off some folks looking for a more balanced atmosphere, especially if you're after a mixed crowd.
  • Space can be an issue with tables being scarce, particularly if it's busy or pre-booked, and there have been complaints about strong smells like fish overpowering the vibe.
  • The place has had reports of being chilly inside, even on a bad weather day, which isn't ideal when you're settling in for a drink or meal.
  • Dogs seem to be a regular sight, which might not suit everyone, especially if you're not keen on furry friends joining the fun.

Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is really welcoming and friendly, making it a great spot for a casual catch-up with mates.
  • Drinks are affordably priced with some cracking offers, especially their summer range – perfect for keeping things light on the wallet.

  • There's a good buzz with events like live music, quizzes, and even comedy nights, keeping things lively and fun.
Areas for Improvement
  • The music can get a bit too loud at times, which might make it hard to chat without raising your voice.
  • Food options aren't always reliable; sometimes there are none available, like on certain Sundays, so it's not the best for a full meal out.
  • Service is generally okay, but it doesn't always hit the mark – nothing terrible, just not consistently top-notch.

  • Tucked away in South-East London, it's not the most central spot, which could be a trek if you're not local

  • Staff are friendly and attentive, always ready with a smile and good service to make you feel at home.
  • They serve well-kept Greene King beers that hit the spot every time.
  • It's dog-friendly, so you can pop in with your four-legged mate after a walk.
  • A great spot for watching sports on the TVs or enjoying a quiet natter in the cosy corners.
Areas for Improvement
  • No food is served, so you'll need to head elsewhere if you're after a meal with your drink.
  • Some of the newer bar staff could use a bit more personality to really liven up the experience.
  • It's tucked away a bit, which might make it less convenient if you're not in the local area.

It's a local pub, for locals to enjoy a quiet drink, watch the sports on TV and have a game of darts... No food served here. But an authentic British boozer! Be sure to participate in the raffles and...

The Rising Sun in Eltham is a proper traditional British pub that's all about that warm, welcoming feel, with cracking food and service that keeps folks coming back for more.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is wonderfully cosy and welcoming, with its historic decor and traditional vibes that make you feel right at home.
  • The staff are absolute gems – friendly, attentive, and always ready with a smile, just like Sebastian who got rave reviews for his top-notch service.
  • The food is spot on, offering delicious classics like burgers, fish and chips, and seasonal specials that hit the spot, especially with those unbeatable lunch deals.
  • It's super family-friendly and dog-friendly, so you can bring the whole gang, including your furry mate, for a relaxed outing.
  • They've got great deals and events, like the summer drinks and Pride celebrations, which add a fun twist to your visit.
Areas for Improvement
  • It might feel a bit quiet or traditional if you're after a more buzzing, modern spot with the latest trends in cocktails or music.
  • Serving hours wrap up a tad early on Sundays, so if you're planning a late-night catch-up, you might need to wrap things up sooner than expected.
  • While the food's lovely, it sticks to classic pub fare, so if you're craving something a bit more adventurous or exotic, you might have to look elsewhere.

The Crown Tavern is a welcoming community pub in South-East London that's ideal for enjoying great food, live sports, and a relaxed garden vibe with friends.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are absolutely brilliant – always friendly, helpful, and go the extra mile to make you feel welcome, like chatting with old mates.
  • The food is spot on, especially those Sunday roasts and the garden grub; it's hearty, tasty, and perfect for a proper pub meal.

  • The atmosphere is warm and inviting, blending that classic local pub vibe with live sports and a great selection of beers and wines.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get a tad busy during peak times or events, which might make it feel a bit cramped if you're after a quiet spot.
  • With prices on the moderate side, it might not be the most budget-friendly option for a casual night out, though it's worth it for the quality.
  • The menu might not have the widest variety for those with specific dietary needs, based on what's mentioned.

The Green Man in Welling is a cosy local pub that's spot on for families, sports enthusiasts, and casual get-togethers, boasting a solid reputation for good vibes and value.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • It's got a brilliant family-friendly atmosphere with a huge outdoor garden and play area, making it ideal for a relaxed day out with the kids.
  • The staff are super friendly and welcoming, always making you feel right at home – their slogan 'Come as a stranger, leave as a friend' really rings true.
  • They offer a great selection of drinks at reasonable prices, plus tasty pub grub like traditional dishes and homemade pizzas that hit the spot.
  • Live sports on big screens from Sky and TNT make it a top choice for catching the game with mates.
  • It's well-suited for events like parties or wakes, with a function room that's easy to hire and a welcoming vibe overall.
Areas for Improvement
  • There was a worrying report about hygiene during a buffet service, where food was handled unsafely – that's something to keep an eye on if you're booking an event.
  • Opening hours are consistent, but with a moderate price level, some might find the food options a bit limited if you're after something more adventurous.
  • A few reviews hint at inconsistencies, like one person having a disappointing experience, so it might not be perfect every time you visit.

The Beehive is a charming local pub with a warm vibe and friendly faces, though it has a few rough edges like no food options and some maintenance needs.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are absolutely brilliant – friendly, efficient, and they make you feel right at home, like you've been a regular for years.
  • It's got a lovely, welcoming atmosphere in a beautifully kept building that just adds to the charm.
  • Prices are spot on, making it a great spot for a casual pint without breaking the bank.
  • They've got a decent selection of beers and wine, plus entertainment like a DJ on weekends to keep things lively.
  • There's a car park at the back, which is handy if you're popping in by car.
Areas for Improvement
  • They don't serve food on site, which is a bit of a shame if you're after a proper meal with your drink.
  • No real ale available, so if that's your thing, you might be disappointed and end up with something like Guinness instead.
  • The toilets could do with some TLC – like fixing a broken lock on the ladies' one, which isn't ideal.
  • Bar staff aren't always on the ball; sometimes they're chatting away and you have to wait a bit to get served.

The Banker's Draft is a welcoming, budget-friendly pub in Eltham with cheerful staff and a fun vibe, though it's cosy to a fault and has a few quirks that might catch you out.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and go the extra mile, like helping out when someone needs a hand or serving up drinks with a smile
  • Drinks are dead affordable, making it a brilliant spot for a cheeky pint without emptying your wallet
  • The atmosphere can be spot on, especially for things like karaoke nights – it's got that lively buzz that lifts your spirits
  • Service is quick and efficient, whether you're grabbing a drink or a bite, and the place stays nice and warm even on a chilly evening
  • It's open seven days a week with generous hours, so you can pop in for a relaxed session whenever the mood strikes
Areas for Improvement
  • The pub is on the small side, which means it can get packed quickly and tables might be hard to come by
  • Those multi-coloured lights can be a right nuisance at first, though you might get used to them after a bit
  • Prices on drinks have crept up a little, which feels a bit disappointing when you're after a bargain
  • The food doesn't seem to impress everyone – some say it's best to skip it and stick to the drinks
  • As it's unclaimed online, you might not get the latest updates or special offers directly from the venue

The We-Anchor-In-Hope is a cosy local in Welling that's spot on for a relaxed pint, hearty food, and catching the game, though it's got a few niggles that keep it from being perfect.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are absolutely brilliant – always friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
  • The food is spot on, with delicious options that offer great value for money, like those tasty plates for a steal.
  • It's a welcoming spot for families, with a nice clean garden that's perfect for kids and even dogs to enjoy.
  • They've got a great vibe for watching live sports, especially big events like the Women's Euros or rugby tours, with screens and a lively atmosphere.
  • Plenty of facilities to make your visit smooth, including beer gardens, WiFi, and even EV charging if you're popping in by car.
Areas for Improvement
  • The overall rating sits at a solid 3.9, which suggests there might be occasional slip-ups in service or consistency that don't always hit the mark.
  • It seems like it could get a bit quiet or overlooked sometimes, as one review mentioned it doesn't get the attention it deserves, which might mean it's not always buzzing.
  • With operating hours wrapping up fairly early, like 10:30pm on Sundays, it might not suit those looking for a late-night hangout.
  • As a chain pub under Greene King, it might lack that unique, quirky charm some independent spots have, feeling a tad standard in places.

The Downham Tavern is a classic local pub in Bromley with a 3.7 rating, offering warm vibes and affordable drinks, but it might not suit everyone if you're new to the scene.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are really friendly and welcoming, making it feel like a proper community spot
  • Drinks are reasonably priced, with pints like Fosters at just £4 – great for a budget night out
  • They've got weekend entertainment and an eclectic music choice that adds a fun vibe
  • There's a nice touch of history, like plaques commemorating past owners, which gives it character
Areas for Improvement
  • It can feel a bit cliquey if you're not a regular, with some folks getting the side-eye or questions just for dropping in
  • No food options mentioned, so you might end up just sticking to drinks and feeling a tad peckish
  • It's not the fanciest place – some have called it basic or not up to modern standards, which might put off those wanting something posh

The Earl of Chatham is a lively London pub that's spot-on for sports enthusiasts and budget-friendly drinks, but it's had some ups and downs with service and vibes.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • It's got a brilliant setup for watching live sports, with HD screens showing everything from football to boxing, making it a top spot for game days.
  • Drinks are affordably priced, like pints for just £4, which keeps things light on the wallet while you're enjoying a pint with mates.
  • Loads of entertainment on offer, including pool tables, dart boards, and even free pool on Mondays, plus live music on weekends to keep the atmosphere buzzing.
  • The place is spacious with plenty of seating, and some folks rave about the quick service and how clean it all is.
  • It's a community-focused pub with a welcoming vibe for casual meet-ups, especially if you're into sports and a bit of fun.
Areas for Improvement
  • There have been a few reports of staff not being as friendly or fair, with some feeling brushed off or treated poorly by security.
  • Occasional issues with management not stepping in impartially, which has left a sour taste for some regular visitors.
  • It can feel a bit cliquey at times, like an old boys' hangout, so it might not be the most inclusive spot for everyone.
  • A couple of experiences shared online suggest entry problems or feeling unwelcome, which could put a damper on your night out.
