Pub on Jamaica Road a short walk from [[Bermondsey Station]].
Pub on Jamaica Road a short walk from [[Bermondsey Station]]. It's quite large inside, though some of the space is divided up into little booth-type things with half-height frosted glass privacy screens, and there's a sofa area at the back; a rather nice use of the space. There are benches and things outside where you can smoke.

<b>Note:</b> In Spring 2015, the Gregorian was taken over by [[Category Antic Pubs|Antic]], and reopened in June 2015. We haven't visited since, so some of the information below is likely out of date.
[[Bob]] visited on a Sunday night in April 2007; none of the handpumps were on, and a pint of lemonade and lime was charged at &pound;3.20!

[[Kake]] and [[bob]] visited again in September 2008, this time earlyish on a Saturday evening. There were several other customers in but the place wasn't packed by any means. Slightly annoying background music was playing, but not too loudly. Two of the four handpumps were in use this time, offering Courage Best and Bombardier. A pint and a half of Bombardier plus a packet of bacon fries cost &pound;5.05.

The Gregorian closed briefly in early 2010, and reopened in May 2010 under new management. As of June 2010, the four handpumps are still present on the bar, but no real ale is available because the lines are damaged and it's not clear when or whether they'll be fixed.
The BITE comments and Fancyapint review linked below suggest there's free wireless internet, but in September 2008 Kake's smartphone couldn't see any wireless networks at all.

[[Kake]] visited on a weekday afternoon in June 2010; a pint of lime and soda was a rather steep &pound;2.60. Service was friendly.

The BITE comments and Fancyapint review linked below suggest there's free wireless internet, but in September 2008 Kake's smartphone couldn't see any wireless networks at all.

Accessibility: One step up to get in, but then there's level access to the bar, almost all of the seating area, and the toilets; though access to the ladies' at least is via two rather narrow and heavy doors.
