  “Saturday night live music was such fun here and there were local pints on tap. For me a nice sing-song IS the true character of a London pub. We all miss the real Cockney places where there was a simple upright pianoforte and the regulars singing along. I’m ‘Scotch’ myself (Maryhill in north Glasgow) and this place is exactly the kind of proper ‘Laandan’ public house we all want to visit when we’re carrying on down here. It’s a solid, sound British pub carrying on the same good old traditions as all our good locals at home. Good on the staff and landlord for keeping it up to high standards this way. All the Cockneys should take note and come along, sing along, and give their support! Much love for a nice English pub from a Glaswegian!! 🍻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧”

  “🚇 Brockley 🍺 £5.20 Cruzcampo The Wickham Arms is located on a quiet residential street in Brockley, southeast London. The nearest station is Brockley, on the Windrush Line. The pub was built in 1853 as part of Brockley’s suburban expansion in the 19th century. The architecture is classic Victorian, featuring an unusual one-storey extension to the side. This is a good-sized, traditionally decorated one-bar pub with a central horseshoe-shaped servery. To the left of the bar, there’s a cosy seating area with grey panelled walls, vintage beer signs, blue leather pews, a working fireplace, and a herringbone carpet. The central bar area has a mix of high and low seating, plus a couple of chesterfields on a wooden floor. On the right-hand side, there’s a pool table, dartboard, and a line of poser tables. Out back, there’s a large beer garden, which was getting a bit of a makeover when I visited. Out front, you’ll find a few benches next to a big palm tree. The beer line-up includes a mix of well-known brands, three cask ales, and some local brews from Brockley Brewery. I went for a pint of Cruzcampo — it was spot on, and just over a fiver. The food menu’s Thai and gets great reviews. The Pad Thai comes in at just over twelve quid. I arrived at 1pm on a warm Saturday lunchtime in April. The pub was fairly busy with a mix of punters, most of whom were watching the City v Palace game. The atmosphere was chilled and relaxed, with a proper down-to-earth local pub feel. Service was excellent — I was served by a lovely lady behind the ramp who was warm, welcoming, and friendly. This is a lovely local boozer, serving up reasonably priced pints in welcoming surroundings. A must-visit if you’re in the area. 📅 12th April 2025 If you want to see all my pub reviews in one place, head to @londonpubmap on Instagram. 🍻”

  “Relatively cheap pints (£11.10 for Morretti & Neck oil), a lively atmosphere on a bank holiday Monday evening and a spacious, well appointed bar and beer garden, what more could you want from a pub? I came here during the Newcastle Liverpool game, and the pub had a partisan feel. Although Liverpool was more heavily represented, there was a contingent of Toon fans which had made a corner of the pub their own. There was advertising for an attached Thai restaurant. This was not open when I attended so I cannot speak for the quality of service or food. I will return and update this in the future. There was a separate games room with its own tv. This room had darts (free to play) and pool (£1 play). Both of these games were in good, usable condition. The toilets in the Wickham arms were of good quality for a pub of this standing. The men's cubicle toilet flushed well and effectively. There was adequate soap on the sink here. I enjoyed my trip to the Wickham arms and will definitely return. This will likely be to watch live sport as this venue was perfectly suited for such an occasion.”

  “I was at the Wickham Arms on Saturday 07/09/2024. This place is full of good energy and beautiful people. The bar staff were all very polite, served drinks quickly and always looking to assist with what I needed. I tried Green Curry from Saijai Thai Cuisine which is served at the pub. I asked the chef to reduce the amount of spice and it turned out exactly how I wanted it. It's soo tasty, original Thai Food made by Thailand women, it was just soo delicious, mouth watering. I defiantly recommended this place. I will came back on my birthday next Saturday. Ahhh, I nearly forgot to mentioned, they also have Live. Music on Saturdays! I got to enjoy the music of Jonny Deptford. Good atmostphere at this pub.”
