Fuller's Ale & Pie House in Bromley, in the Good Beer Guide. It was converted from a Natwest bank in 1995, and refurbished in 2005.
The walls are wood-panelled, which looks very impressive, but makes the main room very echoey and loud - particularly if there is a football match on. There is a smaller room at the back which is much quieter, and tables outside under a large awning which act as a smoking area.
On a May 2008 visit, Nick had a lamb pie which was very nice with a rich flavour (around £8), while his accomplice had a spaghetti bolognese which tasted home made, rather than something mass produced in a jar (around £7). With one drink each the bill came to £20.15 - a subsequent pint of 1845 was £3.25.
There are five or six hand pumps with real ale, and the staff were helpful and friendly.
On a November 2008 visit, AndrewB noted that they stop taking orders for food at 6:50 pm on Sundays - they declined to take a pudding order for us at 6:52 pm.
A nice pub, particularly by Bromley standards.
