Randomness Guide to London Menu

Good Beer Guide pub in Homerton, formerly called The Kenton Arms (as is still clear from the building).

Following a makeover around 2010, this is now a buzzing gentrified local, with music playing, colourful decoration, and plenty of people in on a Sunday afternoon. The main room curves around the bar, with a range of tables and some stool seating, and there's a separate smaller room towards the back (with lots of sofas), as well as a beer garden with three tables and a covered almost-interior area with sofas (perhaps a former garage).

There are only two handpulls for ale, dispensing Doom Bar (£3.30/pint) and Landlord, though the latter is off on Ewan's September 2011 visit. However, the Doom Bar is perfectly kept. Draught taps also dispense Staropramen, Leffe, Beck's Vier and other keg beers.

The food offer involves roasts on Sundays (£12), and Pieminister pies on other days.

Signage advertises a pub quiz on Tuesdays starting at 8pm, a film night on Mondays at 9pm, and live music Wednesday. According to the 2012 Good Beer Guide, it's also dog-friendly, and there are board games, and free wifi. Note that it doesn't open until mid-afternoon on weekdays.
