The Lost Hour London

 

Make your next Greenwich get-together a proper pub session at The Lost Hour, a lively local on Greenwich High Road where good times are very much on the menu. Grab a cue for pool, line up a game of darts, catch sport on the screens, then settle in with 13+ craft beers on tap, cocktails and comfort food from around £20 a head.

Think juicy burgers, loaded fries, wings, pub classics and a dog-friendly setting that works for birthdays, casual dinners and “just one drink” plans that absolutely will not stay that way.

 

Richard The First

This traditional Young's pub in Greenwich has been untouched by modern day influences and remains a quaint place to stop in for a drink. A friendly staff with a knowledge of the area and drinks they serve make this a hidden gem in a tourist filled area. With a passion for good beer, the pub maintains the highest standard and is renowned for it's traditional Young's real ales. Perfect for after work drinks or a family meal!

The Cutty Sark

Like to enjoy your after work drinks with a view? You'll want to know all about The Cutty Sark pub; with a proud history spanning over 200 years and a stunning vantage point that looks over the river and the Canary Wharf skyline. Book yourself a river table (or head out onto their patio) and kick back with a couple of drinks or a plate of hearty comfort food at one of our favourite pubs in south east London.

The Old Brewery

In need of a pub stocked with loads of charisma? There's a cracking boozer located just a few yards from the legendary Cutty Sark - and there's a pretty sweet outdoor terrace here, too. The Old Brewery is a quirky Young's boozer ideal for locals and visitors alike, where fresh British comfort food and heaps of locally-brewed craft beers are served inside the grounds of the Old Royal Naval College.
