  • Grabbing a pint central if you need some fuel on the way.

  • interdasting... where?

  • Maybe the Lamb. I'd like to got a pub that isn't rammed, but I don't think that's going to happen.

  • on a friday night? impossibrew.

    /all depends on K's comings and goings tbh

  • Knowles is nice and spacious good beer if a little uninspired on the selection, get there early as the lighting is pretty dismal and you can't see what your drinking eating or who you're talking to, this may or may not be a good thing.
    p.s. they do slices of sausage roll.*

    • not on a square plate.
  • Let me know what it's like. Looks a bit bland from outside, but was a big fan of the Bowls Club when we were in Balham.

    *EDIT - @citron 's covered it.

  • cheers chris. tbh, we just want to see what took nigh on two years to slap together. still can't bring myself to go inside the bricklayers... it's kareoke night tonight...

  • Lets do bricklayers, karaoke maybe a step to far though.

  • So much this. I've been wanting to go for ages.

  • Anyone, drop my a text if you're at a loose end for a while. I'm not out of here until 6pm, though, so you may already have fucked off back to Croydon.

  • I idolised Mike Skinner as a teen and tried to do a Streets-themed pub crawl when I moved to SW. Only the Dogstar remained. Tour cancelled.

  • What the fuck is this place? Is it a restaurant? A pub? All the tables have "reserved" signs on them and menus. Where's the giant fuck off communal tables? what's this shit XfM MOR? Why Is The Menu Written In Camel Case and pegged to an ironic Craig David record sleeve? Why is my pint in a northern whippet owners dimpled mug? Why are there zinc buckets hanging from the ceiling? wiFi's good tho.

    All in, not entirely bad. Beers alright. Think I'll stay.

    I miss the reej.

  • Wow. Sounds right up your (Norwood High) street.

  • Get some sausage roll slices it'll make you even angrier.

  • It's OK actually. Bar staff are far too friendly. They'd do well to poach tony from the reej.

    ...tony... Mmmmm

  • What manner of top arsehole slices a sausage roll?

    /sets fire to bog roll in toilet and leaves

  • Joe would hate this place.

  • the Marquis is still open if you want a streets themed pub think they filmed a video in there.
    good pint of Guinness in there. Was my local. Good back street pub.

  • £30 fish and chips? you high?

  • Brixton is a good place for a jaunt; it is newly interesting since David Bowie died, because it was here, at the Ritzy Cinema, that fans came for communion after his “secret” death, as opposed to his “public” death, which I think would have involved David Bowie dying in public, possibly on a gurney outside the Ritzy, after which people would take “corpse selfies”.

    Huh?

  • The writing doesn't get better. Wow.

  • I thought there was double lolz in the article...

    Firstly the place being reviewed sounds fucking weird - hip hop themed fish and chips? WTF???

    And the ridiculous descriptions of Brixton. They made it sound like a foreign country. But I guess it is to most home county - middle england Telegraph readers

  • hnnnnnnnng

    also: 2003 called - they want their fucking samphire back.

  • Lovely plate, though.
