?7? Really? By saying you were charged that, did you not look at the wine list? Just asking as you sound surprised. The Prosecco was ?5 from memory which is just about what we've paid elsewhere in ED. We have the 175mls glasses of wine and they definitely weren't ?7 but around the ?5 something (though they did have cheaper & more expensive ones) which again is comparable to anywhere else - and they had a much larger variety & choice.

> ?4.75 for a Greenwich Meantime Ale. Enough said.


Not saying it's good value, but these days everywhere seems to charge ?4 for bog stanard Heineken/Amstel. So I'd rather pay ?4.75 for something that tastes decent.

saw the outside of this coming together nicely over jan and feb, looked great from the outside ... but inside what a lost opportunity. looks like a lof of money and effort spent but slightly misguided interior design... what market was this aimed at (we are interior designers / architect) in particular as others have pointed out, the sky-lit rear area, which feels like a motorway services eating area. the front of the pub / bar area looked better, but there wasn't space to sit and enjoy that. food and drink = pricey, i'll give it another chance this summer, but with all the promise of the exterior restoration (lovely - + great logo!) it's going to be a while before anyone finds the time / money to rectify the mistakes inside. oh well. lost opportunity big time, for such a great location.

Just taken my Canadian visitor there and we were both shocked to the price of a local beer (Greenwich larger). Surely because it's a local ale it should be cheaper than other largers!


I prefer the old lay out (first time since refurb) seems very closterfobic in the back . Before we could sit where we wanted, tonight we were funnelled to the front! As a visitor, he thought the Forest hill tavern was much better than the Clock house (interesting).

Hello, we be had two meals there and both times thought the food was good and the service by the young waitress excellent. The second time was for Sunday lunch and we took our dog so sat in the front area, the waitress although rushed still found time to bring a water bowl over which was thoughtful.

A change for the worse in my opinion. I've been twice now and disappointed both times, not only with the food (half the menu not available at lunchtime!), but the prices and the rude staff.


Shame really as we loved it before and it has potential to do well with such a great location near the park.

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
