Randomness Guide to London - Differences between Version 25 and Version 6 of Jolly Farmers, SE13 6LE

Version 25 Version 6

A nice, traditional pub in [[Locale Lewisham|Lewisham]], previously known as the Jordan. It's about 15-20 minutes' walk from [[Lewisham station]] (zone 2), and about 5 from [[Ladywell Station|Ladywell]] (zone 3).
A nice, traditional pub with a beer garden, a quiz machine, and several real ales on draught including a few fruity, strong ales. About 15-20 min from [[Lewisham station]] (zone 2), about 5 from [[Ladywell Station|Ladywell]] (zone 3).

It has a beer garden, a quiz machine, and five handpumps. They have a selection of good wines as well, and in general this pub is much better than the nearby [[Fox And Firkin, SE13 6JZ|Fox & Firkin]] for quality of drinks (it's just more expensive) and is also a fair bit quieter.
I need to go back and investigate the food situation and if any veg*n options are available. There are comfy sofas and the staff are really nice. Perfect for lazy, rainy Sunday afternoons.

[[Kake]], [[Ewan]], [[secretlondon]], [[her welshness]], and James visited on a Friday evening in October 2008. Four of the five handpumps were on, offering Young's Ordinary and Special, Doom Bar (£2.80/pint), and Archers Golden. [[Kake]] had no trouble finding a table on arrival a little after 6pm, though most if not all of the seats in the pub were taken by the time we left around 8pm.
I updated this page mainly to motivate myself to go back when I'm drinking ale again and take better notes!

When [[bob]] visited in October 2009, a pint of Young's Ordinary was £2.60.

The decor is perhaps a little sparse, with large bare wooden tables, and it was quite well-lit on our evening visit, but it doesn't feel unwelcoming, and its small size means it still feels fairly cosy.

As of October 2009, food is served noon-2:30pm (not sure which days) and quiz night is Wednesday.

There used to be comfy sofas — were these still there on our most recent visit? [[Kake]] didn't notice any.

Expect to find off-duty doctors and nurses in here, as it's right next door to a university hospital.
