Wetherspoon's pub near Peckham Library.

secretlondon went here in June 2008. It is quiet and a bit soulless, but feels safer than a lot of pubs in Peckham. It also does real ale.

Comment added by Kake: Three steps up to get in, but there's an accessible toilet indicated inside so maybe there's a portable ramp or another entrance... not sure. Got here a little before 3pm on a Monday, and I actually had to hunt around for a free table, though it's not that small. Some of the tables are those high table/high stool combination things. I ended up sitting in one of the little booth-like things (not actual booths, but back-to-back transverse bench seating with high backs) hidden behind a couple of pillars to the side of the entrance. No piped music, plenty of loud and cheerful conversation though.

Comment added by Kake: Free wireless via The Cloud - working fine on Opera on the e61, no password needed (putty crashed my phone when I tried it on there, so can't confirm that). Lots of handpumps, but they only had Abbott Ale and Ventnor (?) Oyster Stout, with Bombardier coming soon. I tried the Oyster Stout (1.00/half) - it tasted possibly a bit sour so I took it back to the bar to check; a chap who may have been the head barman or manager tasted it (a fresh pull from the pump) and said he thought it was meant to be like that (and he could well have been right) but that he'd happily swap it if I didn't like it. The only choice for my swap was Abbott, but it was fine. Very friendly interaction even though he was clearly fairly busy; gold star for customer service.
