Randomness Guide to London - Differences between Version 26 and Version 12 of Hermit's Cave, SE5 8QU

Version 26 Version 12

It has seven hand pumps with Old Rosie scrumpy and several Weston's ciders, London Pride, Gravesend Shrimpers Bitter and, on visits in July 2009 and August 2010, a couple of Brodie's ales. Cider is clearly a focus of this pub, and four of the handpulls are seemingly dedicated to it, with a number of draught ciders as well, and at least one perry. In addition, they have Leffe, Hoegaarden, Amstel and others on draught. In September 2008, [[secretlondon]]'s pint of Gravesend Shrimpers (£3/pint) was poor and flat, but the ales and ciders we've tried here since then have been fine.
The pub is laid out internally for football, with sofas set out cinema-style. On [[secretlondon]]'s visit in September 2008, there was an England match on later but they were showing a different game. The pub felt dirty and rough and there were very few women there.

When [[DrHyde]] visited in July 2009 there was no football on. The pub was busy but not packed, service was quick, the beer was good, and it felt friendly and welcoming. [[Ewan]]'s August 2010 visit was during the day so the pub was very quiet indeed, but pleasant nonetheless. On another visit by [[Kake]], [[Laura]], [[Sarah]] et al. in September 2010, there was football on the TV but the seating arrangements were as normal, and it wasn't too intrusive.
It had four or five hand pumps with Old Rosie Scrumpy and another cider, London Pride, Gravesend Shrimpers Bitter and maybe another. I had a pint of Gravesend Shrimpers Bitter (£3/pint) which was poor and flat.

Accessibility: No steps to enter. It's step-free through to the toilets, but the ladies' at least is tiny, with a single small cubicle and a handwashing area narrow enough that if you want to let someone past to get into the cubicle you have to back out into the pub.

Town centre pub on Camberwell Church Street in Camberwell.

The pub is laid out internally for football, with sofas set out cinema-style. On secretlondon's visit in September 2008, there was an England match on later but they were showing a different game. The pub felt dirty and rough and there were very few women there.

It had four or five hand pumps with Old Rosie Scrumpy and another cider, London Pride, Gravesend Shrimpers Bitter and maybe another. I had a pint of Gravesend Shrimpers Bitter (£3/pint) which was poor and flat.

When DrHyde visited in July 2009 there was no football on. The pub was busy but not packed, service was quick, the beer was good, and it felt friendly and welcoming. Beers were Gravesend and some local brew beginning with B, and there were Old Rosie and Westons ciders.
