Town centre pub on Camberwell Church Street in [[Locale Camberwell|Camberwell]]. 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. On [[secretlondon]]'s visit in September 2008, the pub was laid out internally for football, with sofas set out cinema-style; there was an England match on later but they were showing a different game. 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. 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.
