This isn't really a Firkin pub any more, but a perfectly pleasant drinking spot for the area (the southern end of Lewisham High Street, closer to Ladywell Station), with lots of space, and a large beer garden out back.
It attracts a fairly mixed crowd, with plenty of students (presumably from Goldsmiths College) and regulars as well. Does a quiz night on Wednesday, live bands on Tuesday (and plenty of other nights of the week as well), and other assorted events. There's a big screen for sporting events, though on the last visit they were showing the football without sound, while a band did their sound check. There's also a pool table, which gets a lot of use.
Its main selling point is that it's a lot cheaper than central London for drinking. Spirits are particularly competitively priced, but stay away from the house wine (though they have better options available, and for not very much more). After having had a row of ale pumps for many years without any ale, in 2007 they added Broadside and Bombardier (with a guest ale as well, which in June 2008 was Robinson's Dizzy Blonde). The range of lagers is standard, nothing special.
