Operator: Independent
90 Bromley Road, Beckenham, BR3 5NP (View on Google Map)

Family-run Victorian local situated between Beckenham and Shortlands with a main U-shaped bar and a separate quiet lounge. The pub reopened as a Gastropub in October 2014 following substantial and sensitive refurbishment and with a new name. The extensive menu changes with the season and no frozen food is used. Casual drinkers are still welcomed - the pub has six handpumps, but away from busy times only three to four will be operational. Admission not allowed after 11pm on Fridays and Saturdays.

There are a wide range of events including singing groups, the "Mother Cuppa" coffee mornings on Wednesdays between 10 am and noon, quiz evenings and live music with both individual singers and bands.

Historic Interest

Historically known as the "Oakhill Tavern", this was built in 1879 on the site of an earlier tavern on the main coach road from Beckenham to Bromley and named after the hamlet of Oakhill that once existed here. This was later owned by the Dartford Brewery. The patio at the side was originally a horse bus depot for services which started in 1847. Situated on the corner of Chancery Lane, which itself dates back to at least 17th C when it was called Alley Lane. Its name, which now lends itself to the current pub name, dates from 1854 following the Court of Chancery declaring the site of the nearby former workhouse as charity lands.
