The Anchor and Hope, Charlton

Excellent pub in a slightly out of the way spot. We visited after a trip to the nearby go-karting track, and on a sunny day the location is hard to beat - right on the river with views of The O2, Docklands and The Thames Barrier.

Slightly let down by the bog standard beer selection, the food more than made up for it. A wide range of pub classics with a few regional dishes thrown in, I opted for the cheese ploughmans which was not only huge but also incredible value at £6.95.

I don't visit Charlton very often, but this place is worth coming back for. I notice from their listings posters that they do live music and DJs so maybe for one of those nights.

Overall, would highly recommend.

The White Hart, Waterloo

My usual meeting place of choice around Waterloo. Good range of ales and lagers, plus the wine selection is pretty decent. Nice decor, reasonable food, does the simple things well. Always surprised it has such a low rating on here as I would consider it one of the best pubs in the area...

The Iron Duke, Hove

Probably my favourite pub in Hove, and that's high praise as within five minutes walk of this place there's some pretty strong competition.

Always has a good range of three or four ales, usually with a local focus. Low lighting, chilled music and an open fire make this a cosy spot for evening drinks. Sunday roast recommended too.
