| The Belvedere Hotel was a pub near [[Belvedere Station]]. According to the April/May 2019 <i>London Drinker</i>, it closed down after being sold in December 2018. As of April 2020, [https://www.fromthemurkydepths.co.uk/2020/04/28/plans-submitted-for-two-closed-bexley-borough-pub-sites/ Murky Depths reports] that planning permission is being sought to convert it to residential ([https://pa.bexley.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=summary&keyVal=Q5BQFEBEIVP00 planning ref 20/00311/FUL]). |
A friendly locals pub at the bottom of the rather steep Picardy Road toward [[Locale Upper Belvedere|Upper Belvedere]]. It has a pool table and an active darts team so can get rather crowded when both of these activities are taking place. Usually has at least two real ales available. |

<div class="old_info"> Pub near [[Belvedere Station]]. It's at the bottom of the rather steep Picardy Road toward [[Locale Upper Belvedere|Upper Belvedere]], and also very handy for the bus stop toward [[Locale Bexleyheath|Bexleyheath]]. It had a change of management in early 2017 <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/33385153201/ photo of sign]</small>; see <a href="http://london.randomness.org.uk/wiki.cgi?id=Belvedere_Hotel%2C_DA17_5QH&version=9">earlier version of this page</a> for what it was like before that. Inside, it's a small single room, with pool table and dartboard on one side and seating — a mix of banquettes and low stools — on the other. Paintwork is in shades of browns and creams, a geometrically-patterned carpet is on the floor, and two fruit machines flash silently at each other across the bar. There's a small but decent enough beer garden out the back, with grass and shrubbery, and although there's a fair bit of traffic noise out there, the pub is set back from the main road so it's not too bad. [[Kake]] visited on a Saturday afternoon in September 2017. No music was playing. There were three or four other customers in when I arrived around 3pm, seemingly regulars. Both staff and customers were friendly and welcoming. There are two handpumps on the bar, but only one was on because there'd been a problem with their last delivery. Sharp's Doom Bar (£1.80/half) was in good condition. According to a sign seen in September 2017, children are only permitted in the pub until 8:30pm. Accessibility: Two steps to get in, another step between the two sides of the pub, and a couple more steps to the beer garden. |
