Relaxed bar under the platforms of Peckham Rye Station.
Not much in the way of beer (Staropramen and another lager), but they do food at least in the evenings and during the day weekends (which included a fine breakfast). They also do cocktails at £5-6 each, which are generally excellent. My whisky sour was made with generous amounts of alcohol.
There is a large outdoor seating area in the front. Out the back of the bar, under another arch, they have a small gallery space called the Sassoon Gallery, which has a regularly changing line-up of artists exhibiting.
As of March 2008, they advertise a quiz night every Monday at 8:30pm, a burger night on Tuesdays (two burgers for the price of one, around £7), a Sunday roast for £7 (though no vegetarian option) from noon-late. Happy hour is 6-8pm every day, except Thursday (7-9pm) and Friday (6-7pm), when pints are £2.50 and you can get two of the same cocktail for the price of one.
