Has a downstairs bar, upstairs lounge and small roof terrace. Has a continuing strong commitment to live music. Was threatened with demolition and replacement with an apartment block in 2015, but a strong campaign by locals and the securing of Asset of Community Value status by the local CAMRA branch helped see off this threat.

Globe8 Bedale Street
London
SE1 9AL
In the heart of Borough Market, this venue dates from 1872, built in a Gothic revival style by by prolific south London architect Henry Jarvis who, it is claimed, designed more of the capital’s churches than anyone else. The pub is featured in two films – Blue Ice and Bridget Jones’s Diary. The cask beers are often from local breweries and there is a wide choice of bottles and cans.

SE1 7BL
Having done a number of stints as restaurants of one form or another the Hercules is now back as a pub under the ownership of Fuller’s. The pub is split over two floors.

Hole in the Wall5 Mepham Street
London
SE1 8SQ
Situates in a railway arch, a short hop across the road from Waterloo rail station’s main entrance, this independent family owned free house enjoys the comforting rumble of trains overhead on their way to and from Charing Cross. The pub has a small cosy rugby themed front bar, a larger more basic rear bar showing sport on TV and a small beer garden with patio heaters at the back. A long time real ale stalwart, with seven changing cask beers from handpumps in both bars, mainly from London and southern England brewers. The two ciders on offer may not always comply with CAMRA’s definition of real cider. The pub can get particularly busy when there’s a rugby game at Twickenham. Live Irish acoustic folk music plays on Sunday evenings.
Horniman at Hay’sUnit 26, Hays Galleria, Counter Street
London
SE1 2HD
Busy, spacious split level pub situated within the Hays Galleria next to the River Thames, close to London Bridge. Pub takes its name from the tea dealer Frederick Horniman whose warehouse used to be located on the same site.

London
SE1 3QP
A Brakspear-owned pub, close to London Bridge railway station. A deceptively large pub with a large main bar area, side-room, small upstairs function room, first floor sun terrace and a large beer garden. The pub has three dart boards. The upstairs and side-room boards are often reserved on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays for local pub leagues, but the board near the Gents is usually unreserved.

Three handpumps with changing beers from the Marston’s group.
King’s Arms65 Newcomen Street
London
SE1 1YT
A popular, Grade II-listed, single-room pub with a traditional and comfortable interior, situated just off the busy Borough High Street.
