  • The Fox on the Hill is an awful pub, you can't argue with those prices tho'... Longtime fan, let's do it... ;]
    Massive garden too...

    I mainly posted it for your benefit. I know how much you love that place. :p

  • A mate of mine used to go in there to pull the grannies on curry club night... True story... :S

  • This mate, did he wear a Supreme baseball cap and look a bit like Mick Jones from the Clash?

  • I worked at the fox throughout university (whilst back from Leeds on my holidays). has been about 4 years since, but locals haven't changed, and some of the staff are still there. I vote yes to the fox!!!

  • This mate, did he wear a Supreme baseball cap and look a bit like Mick Jones from the Clash?

    *adds andyp to *the list** ;P

  • A mate of mine used to go in there to pull the grannies on curry club night... True story... :S

    Most of your mates are grandparents anyway ;^)

  • I had the worst cooked breakfast of my life in the Fox, fact (not related to cheap beers, just joining in story time)

  • There are certain definite don'ts on the menu, you have to learn the art of picking and choosing correctly.
    The learning curve can be painful though(t).

  • So nominations for the second pub then?

    The Fox is indeed a shitehole. But as the granny fiddler says, its got a massive beer garden. Not sure how great that's going to be in this weather, but who knows. It does involve a hill too... but also Camberwell.

    Need to plan some eating points in this too. Eating is not cheating.

  • But as the granny fiddler says

    Ha, love it! Joe to be known as the granny fiddler from now on.

  • we could always do walworth road bagels, they do a jerk chicken one which is too good for words.
    or are you thinking someplace to sit down and eat? not sure we'll have the time really.

  • Ha, love it! Joe to be known as the granny fiddler from now on.

    I'm just rightus for tickling your arthritis

    But yeah Corny, that sounds like a plan. I've got stuff to do on Saturday, and with 6+ pubs, I know food will save the day. Alternatively, I could try not to drink 6+ pints.

  • Ha, love it! Joe to be known as the granny fiddler from now on.

    • adds snowy and markyboy to the list... ;]
    • adds snowy and markyboy to the list... ;]

    Judging by others on the list, it seems like a good place to be.

  • okay, just collecting all the data in one place.

    1. The Kings Arms (SE Beers original location)
    2. A Pub In Kennington - TBC - The Doghouse perhaps? Or nominate another.
      2a. Stop off at Walworth Road Bagel Place for hot stuff, which we can take with us and eat as necessary
    3. The Hermit's Cave - Camberwell - slush puppy cider hmm.
      3a. Possible stop at the Fox, Denmark Hill, instead of the Hermits Cave?
    4. The Mansion - Gypsy Hill
    5. The Commercial - Herne Hill, cos I want a pint of Paulaner
    6. The Effra Hotel - Brixton - the jazz will be on and hopping by then.
    7. The Coach and Horses - later license and the spiritual home

    new list with only those who can make it on the 6th

    1. Snowy - all dates are fine.
      1. teenslain - Anytime, anyplace, anywhere...
      2. fruitbat

    Any alternatives for the kennington pub? speak now or forever hold your peace otherwise we'll leave it as the doghouse.

  • Doghouse is fine by me, they serve Stowford Press and there are loads of tables outside...

  • I might be able to make this.. If we're going either Hermit's Cave or The Fox, I'd choose the former any day of the week

  • What's up with students today? Here we have an opportunity to partake of fine ales at £1.69 a pint yet they'd rather go elsewhere.

    No wonder the country is in the financial mess it's in.

  • viz thread >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

  • Andy, my halls of residence were just around the corner from the Fox.. I've had my fill of that place

  • I was joking Will. No need to explain. The Fox is a dump.

  • What about the Phoenix off Denmark Hill? Bike pile in the corner of the outside benches?
