Inside, the floor is wooden and the wallpaper is flocked, but the impression is more of a modern redecoration with an ironic eye to the past, rather than a traditional decor that hasn't changed for decades. There are a couple of sofas as well as normal chairs and tables, and a flatscreen on one wall. There's also some covered outside seating down the side of the pub. |
The beer is drinkable, though there's not really much space. |

When [[Kake]] and [[bob]] visited on a Monday evening in March 2011, the flatscreen was playing silently in the wrong aspect ratio, and music was playing, fairly loud. There were quite a few people in, though still a few seats available. |
<b>Note:</b> Despite [http://www.morningadvertiser.co.uk/news.ma/article/84371?N=598273&Ne=598327&PagingData=Po_0 reports] that Punch Taverns have sold the Britannia to property developers, [http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/4/101028/page=34 according to the LondonSE1 forums] (bottom of page) this only affects the accommodation above the pub, and as of late 2009 there are no plans to close the pub itself. |

On our March 2011 visit, there were two real ales on: Bombardier (£3.55/pint) and Flowers IPA. However, the drink focus is really on whiskies, a vast array of which is displayed behind the bar and written up on a blackboard. Accessibility: One step up to get in. Not sure about access to the toilets. The pub is quite small inside. |
