There used to be a repair workshop run by volunteers every so often (I think maybe monthly) at the community centre (I think it is) next to Nunhead Green, by The Old Nun's Head.
People just took stuff along that needed mending.
Sorry, I don't have more information, and I don't know if it still happens, but you could try googling it?
There was a few around Loughborough Junction which were similar. The Green Man, Harrier's and The Loughborough Hotel come to mind. Harrier's could be a bit, erm, lively at times, but they were okay for a couple of pints early doors.
A rough rule of thumb was, if someone puts The Wolfe Tones on the jukebox, you've probably outstayed your welcome.
I was in one in Dalston Junction some years ago when a very large Irish lad mistook the home-made Scotch Bonnet sauce for tomato ketchup - and he obviously really liked tomato ketchup.
I've never seen such a big bloke shed so many tears.
