Good Beer Guide pub owned by Shepherd Neame, in Greenwich.

On Kake's September 2008 visit, the beers available were Kent's Best, Whitstable Bay, Masterbrew, and Spitfire. I had a pint each of Kent's Best and Masterbrew, and both were well-kept, tasting good and fresh. bob visited again in April 2009; Kent's Best was £2.95/pint and still good.

When Kake arrived at 5pm on a Tuesday evening the place was empty except for two chaps having a lively conversation about nutmeg cultivation, among other subjects, but it filled up a bit more later with various people all of whom seemed to know each other. Almost everyone except me seemed to be drinking wine. Music was playing, some kind of pop/rock, not too loud.

Food is served noon-2pm and 6pm-9pm Tuesday to Saturday, and noon-6pm Sunday. No food on Mondays. The menu is quite short, and includes a range of pizzas.

In September 2008, Kake tried the salmon fillet (£9), which came with roasted vegetables (red, green, and yellow peppers plus mushrooms and new potatoes) and a herb salad photo. It was pretty good; the salmon wasn't overcooked, the vegetables were tasty, and the salad was fresh (albeit undressed).

A sign seen in September 2008 advertised a pub quiz on Tuesdays from 9pm.

Accessibility: Steep ramp up from the pavement, and then a high step to get in. All on one level once you're in.
