London (SE) Pubs : The Cherry Trees pub in London (SE)
'After noticing the "under new management" sign outside The Cherry Trees earlier this week, and hearing that this management also controlled the Clifton Arms and also the Whiteleafe Tavern, I called in yesterday at about 4.00pm. I was apprehensive because this venue has been a rather grim lager lounge for a good while... There were two handpumps sporting homemade clips announcing "Spitfire" and "London Pride". I sampled each and found them to be in good condition, considering they'd been on a couple of days and business seemed sluggish. I was the only punter, although several others arrived and ordered lagers. The third handpump seemed to be broken, and hung at an odd angle. The young Polish barman told me it was to be repaired, that GK IPA was to be added soon, and that three more handpumps ("over there", pointing) serving a variety of guests were planned. One to watch, obviously. An acquaintance of mine chanced to arrive, and insisted on buying me a drink, so I tried another half of Pride which seemed even better than the first! The Cherry Trees is currently rather shabby, but the barman informed me plans were afoot to remedy this, including a new wood bartop. One to watch....'

Croydon Pubs : The Two Brewers pub in Croydon
'Recently redecorated in an attractive way which retains the charm of this old established Shepherd Neame house. The beer is back on form again and the home-made food looks good. Live music from time to time. Worth seeking out, except that it gets busy on Match days when Palace are home.'

Fordwich Pubs : George & Dragon pub in Fordwich near Canterbury

London (SE) Pubs : The Royal Oak pub in London (SE)
'Justly popular and very busy at lunchtimes. This, the only Harveys tied house in London, serves the full range of their beers in tip-top condition with some of the best pub food in the land to accompany it. The pub is traditional to its core, seemingly unchanged for generations! A true gem.'

London (SE) Pubs : The Dulwich Wood House pub in London (SE)
'A large, comfortable pub serving good food and ale from Youngs. There's a large garden and covered outdoor area.'
Report

London (SE) Pubs : The Alliance pub in London (SE)
'A decent pub with past showings in the Good Beer Guide. The management is due to change shortly, so we can only hope that the tradition of well-kept guest ales from small independent brewers is upheld and expanded by the new regime. This could be the best pub in South Norwood with some TLC. It's a useful refuge from the busy High Street, and handy for Norwood Junction Station. The interior is Edwardian, and the windows are a good example of stained glass from that period. On the whole, it remains fairly unspoiled as yet.'
Report

Worth Matravers Pubs : The Square and Compass pub in Worth Matravers near Swanage
'Surely one of the most perfect pubs in Britain! Real ale served from a hatch in the wall, proper pasties, stone flagged floors and quaint rooms, marvellous sea views and no intrusions. Visit when the tourists have gone, and the seas are high, and the fire is burning bright in the grate. You must sample this pub at least once.'

St Keverne Pubs : Three Tuns Inn pub in St Keverne near Helston
'Pleasant traditional pub situated next to the church in this small village. Can't remember what the beer was, but we had a few pints of it without complaint, so it must have been OK! Food looked good. Sitting in the sun outside was a pleasant way to spend a summer's afternoon after strenuous exercise.'
Report

Croydon Pubs : The Lion Inn pub in Croydon
'Locals' pub serving Hepworth's beer from Horsham and Shepherd Neame amongst others. Worth a trip for the beer alone which is usually in tip-top condition. Sunday lunches looked good too. The decor was a little tired looking, but the landlord said it was about to be done, and it may well have been since my visit. '
