hoser Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Forgive me if this is a dumb question (this is my first Christmas in England), but I have heard rumours of some pubs opening in the afternoon on Christmas day and was wondering if any local ones would be open. Have a friend in town for only a few days and don't imagine sitting at home all day, but without public transport would be limited to walking distance. Any suggestions? Thanks.

mockney piers Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 This will actually be my first christmas in London as it goes, so I'm looking for something similar, I seem to recall people were saying there were a couple open last year.

JohnL Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Usually all pubs put a board up saying opening times over the Christmas periodBest thing is to pop down and check.Bet one or two will be open.

Help-Ma-Boab Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Last year gowlett was open from 12 till 3. No pubs were open in ED in the evening after that.

lizzie Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I think the Herne is normally open on Christmas Day but it may only be if you're eating, in which case you have to book.

Keef Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 The Dog or The Plough... CPT always was until last year, will look in to that.Doubt there will be much like on Lordship Lane.The Hearne was absolutely packed 2 years ago when I popped in.

Jah Lush Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I always go to the Dog (12 -2pm) on Xmas day out of tradition but I'll also be stepping into Hoopers on Ivanhoe Road later as they are open from 12 - 3pm.

Keef Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 More importantly, is ANYWHERE open in the evening? Christmas evening is so bloody boring, wish there was somewhere to go drinking!Will have to get a mate to have a party. We always used to have our own session locked in the CPT, but those days are gone :'( Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/4697-any-ed-pubs-open-on-the-25th/#findComment-151204 Share on other sites More sharing options...
citizenED Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 C'mon, Keef, in the circumstances, thought you'd offer to have an 'open house'at yours on Christmas evening, you could brew some mulled wine, crack open some cans, pop some champagne, dish out the twiglets, maybe even a bun in the oven......(congratulations, by the way) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/4697-any-ed-pubs-open-on-the-25th/#findComment-151208 Share on other sites More sharing options...

alieh Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Not sure if this counts as ED, but the Dulwich Wood House was open last year on Christmas Day - you could call to check if it is the same this year. We had planned to walk there through Cox's Walk but then it pissed rain all day so we didn't end up going.

Dulwichman Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Hoopers will be open from 12 to 3pm. Children are allowed in with well-behaved children. I note that Ratty said he couldn't find any pubs open on Xmas evening, it is prohibited in the Licensing laws to open on Xmas Evening.Hope to see some of you then, Merry Christmas!
