| Pub on Druid Street in [[Locale Bermondsey|Bermondsey]]. It was previously a sports pub (see <a href="https://london.randomness.org.uk/wiki.cgi?id=Marquis_Of_Wellington%2C_SE1_2HH&version=9">older version of this page</a>), but was refurbished and changed hands in 2016, reopening in November of that year under the "Bermondsey Pub Co" brand of Enterprise Inns. |

The interior has that "deliberately unfinished" look made popular by [[Category Antic Pubs|Antic]], with worn boards on the floor, scuffed paintwork, peeling wallpaper, and exposed brickwork and plastering. Seating is an eclectic mix of armchairs, sofas, padded banquettes, school-style chairs, and long backless benches. There are several small separate areas running around the central bar, with free passage between. |

[[Kake]] visited on a Thursday afternoon in June 2019. There were a couple of other customers in when I arrived around 1:45pm, and a few more arrived while I was there. Music was playing, not too loud. |

The handpumps were clipped for Reunion Gin Palace and Exmoor Exile Apollo. They also had keg taps for craft beer, including a couple from Anspach & Hobday which is just across the road. A pint of lime and soda was 70p. |
[[secretlondon]] went here one weekday lunchtime in September 2008, as they were advertising food outside. They had a menu up advertising food from 7am to 9pm. However there was no food this week due to staff issues. They were selling sandwiches (including toasted sandwiches) instead. |
| == Line 8 == | == Line 9 == |
|
Food is limited to pizzas, salads, and desserts. |
I had a toasted cheese and onion sandwich, a packet of crisps and half a pint of coke for £3.90 <small>([http://www.flickr.com/photos/secretlondon/2882331124/ photo])</small>. The sandwich itself was £1.80. |

|
According to a sign seen in June 2019, there's a quiz every Wednesday from 8pm. Also, they still show sport — on our visit there were posters advertising every match of the women's football world cup shown live. |
There were at least two bars. I was in a small one with a blue pool table <small>([http://www.flickr.com/photos/secretlondon/2882326770/ photo])</small>, a television (turned off) and a signed Millwall football strip on the wall <small>([http://www.flickr.com/photos/secretlondon/2881503001/ photo])</small>. A sign outside mentioned a dart board but I didn't go into the other bar/s to look. Through the bar area I could see a TV showing football in another bar. |
| == Line 12 == | == Line 13 == |
|
Accessibility: A small step at the side entrance, less than an inch. No steps to the ladies' toilet, but there are two heavy doors along the way. |
The ladies toilet accessible from the bar I was in didn't have a working lock. There are tables outside. |
| == Line 15 == | |
|
I don't think it had any hand pumps. [[secretlondon]] visited again in October 2008 and they weren't doing any food as the cook was off sick. Accessibility: One step to get in. No extra steps to the toilet I investigated. |
