Pembury Tavern

[braindancer]

Huh? You never went to it on Friday night (the reggae night?)?

Reggae Vibes - those nights were great. Although it might have been nice if they had occasionally got a different band to play! Same band week after week but they were pretty cool....

I think I shall head to the Pembury Beer Fest this weekend.

i used to go about 4-5 years ago, think they;d stopped it by the final months though.

Did anyone else used to get their chish and fips from the place I mean? Run by the Finnish woman and English bloke?

They did amongst the best chish and fips I've had in London.

Nearly 10 years later and I've still not been there.

marty21 likes beer at the Pemb too!

 

[Onket]

Not sure it's going to happen now I'm not in London. One day I will visit that pub. One day!

I believe he has switched allegiances to the clapton hart.

Just re-read the whole thread. A fine document which records part of the gentrification of Hackney. Should be in a museum, really.

it is closer, the Billet is even closer and all done up now - since this thread was born, Clapton has been gentrified - Clapton Hart, Crooked Billet, Windsor Castle - all done up - cafes on Lower Clapton Road - even Upper Clapton Road now has foodie places!

the old style pubs have disappeared - Crooked Billet held out until a few weeks ago - Cricketers closed, Three Sisters - now called The Star. Hope and Anchor hasn't changed though.

 

[rutabowa]

i still don't really like it in there, there is something indefinably wrong about it, like it was built on a burial ground or something. 3 sisters all the way, if you are in that area.

i would like to disown my former comments.

I've called it Hackers with zero irony for the last five years

You should *see* the Clapton Hart, Onket

 

[Onket]

Onkers, please. :farcepalm:

Did like that pub.

I like the Hart tbf

 

[5t3IIa]

The Windmill, is it?> Down towards The Narroway, next to the churchyard? I think that's been done. My buddy works on a magazine and does *shoots* down there. Can you imagine that 5 years ago??

 

[5t3IIa]

I like the Hart tbf

Oh, so do I but Onkers would perhaps not recognise the ambiance

 

[Onket]

Which one was The Hart?

Chimes!

Onket!

Why have you just liked a post I wrote nearly 6 years ago? I have no recollection of writing it and don't even recognise myself in it's contents.

That was closed when I lived there, I think. Might have been to a party in there though, possibly. Not 100% sure.

Have you considered the possibility that I liked the post?

Yes but it's 6 years old man! It was almost traumatic for me to delve be dragged back that far back into my posting history!

I just re-read the thread. There are lots of old posts that deserve 'likes' but were written before they were invented.

 

[Onket]

You can't like that one, it's too new!

The Jewel of Murder Mile!
