New cider bar in Loughborough Junction reopens on Fri 19 to Sun 21 May 2017

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Is the bar open now? Google tells me I'm not far away

Opens at 5 I believe. Maybe if you bang on the door and look pleading then Brixton Hatter might take pity on you and let you in early.

Will there be urbanz

I'm not sure if I'm happy or sad to miss it this time around. Mentally sad, physically happy I guess

We were there from 4.30 to 8pm. Early shift innit.
Probably again tomorrow after the Camberwell bus garage open day, working to buscador's timetable tbc

I thoroghly enjoyed overdoing the cider last night. That elderflower one slips down very easily - very refreshing.

Unfortunately I'm now full of hangover and cold today so won't be going out afterall. buscador looks a bit ropey too. Sorry.

 

[mango5]

Hope I haven't given you my cold

I think it was someone at work, and the excess of cider has brought it on. So I won't blame you.

Had a good night yesterday. Good to see fellow Urbanites.

The Welsh cider is very good. Also tried the Elderflower which I liked.

Ok, the winners of the free pints of cider, as picked by a blindfolded mellifluous lady , are:

DietCokeGirl - (didn't you win one last time too?? Lucky!)

Onket (you actually got picked twice in a row amazingly, but you only get one pint - terrible 'randomness' from mellifluous lady)

Look out for a PM and pop in anytime over the weekend for your free pint - or two halves

Cheers for the pint! Top night as usual.

Not ideal preparation for a 3 year old's birthday party this morning in hindsight.

Me and the Mrs are heading up around 7.45ish tonight...

RubyToogood is coming later as well.

Just about to have me evening meal, washed down with a bottle of Brixton Hatter's Val de Rance Cidre Rosé. A bit on the sweet side for me, but perfect for helping along a Scotch Egg.

E2A: That was downright excellent!

 

[Manter]

We went earlier- the rum cask is AMAZING. Elderflower surprisingly good, the very dry (doctor something?) apparently lovely but too dry for me, calvados delicious. My toddler was fascinated.....

(That is not cider in front of him, promise)

 

[Greebo]

Manter the one you had was probably Doctor's Orders.

Will be back tomorrow for draught takeouts, once I've got some containers clean and dry enough.

Had a brief visit yesterday and enjoyed the Rum Cask and the strawberry one. It was great to meet twentythreedom and buy a drink for Shippou-Sensei . A shame I didn't get a chance to chat to all the people who arrived just before we left.

 

[Thimble Queen]

Looking forward to spending the day at the cider bar

 

[han]

Thanks Landlord, that was really great! What a hoot! I love the strawberry the best. Cider I up!

 

[spanglechick]

we went yesterday, and as well as enjoying the gorgeously tart strawberry cider (boo to the rum cask all having been snaffled before i arrived), i got to cross two high-scoring chaps off my I-spy Book of Lesser Spotted Urbanfolk: twentythreedom and CH1 - good to meet you, gents. xx

Great to meet you too, finally

Great to meet you, twentythreedom, there is a pm in your box in case you haven't noticed... ;-)

 

[Brixton Hatter]

A belated massive thanks to all who came to the cider bar. It was fantastic and I hope you all had as much fun as we did.

Apols as I've not been online much for the past few weeks, as 'real life' has intervened…but I'm working on plans for another cider frenzy….whenever that may be.

Really appreciate all your support, it's massively appreciated and I couldn't have done it without many of you here on the boards. Great to meet many new faces and see some old and new friends. Cheers to editor for helping with with promotion and everyone who worked in the bar and came to drink. Love you all….

Watch this space...

 

[Brixton Hatter]

Well excited to tell you that the cider bar is back!

We'll be doing some festive cider bar action from Friday 4 to Sunday 6 December - and you're all invited!

Should have all the old favourites, plus a few new ideas to spice things up…. Also, Sat 5 December is the Loughborough Junction Christmas Market, so it's a great opportunity to pop up the junction and explore all the local delights….

More details here: We're back! Festive cider bar action: Fri 4 - Sun 6 December 2015

Long live the cider bar!

editor if you would be so good as to change the date on the thread title, that would be marvellous (and worth a pint
