Eynsford to Farningham (and back again!) Social

We tried to do this social last year, but had to cancel due to exceptionally hot weather. We have brought the date forward a month in the hope that we still benefit from good weather, but without a record-breaking heatwave this time. The Darenth Valley contains arguably the most attractive scenery to be found within easy reach of Bromley. The social offers the chance to enjoy a short walk in the valley, as well as visits to 5 country pubs. Total walking distance is about 4-5 kilometres (about 3.5 miles) and should be fine for most able-bodied people. The return walk is mainly uphill though, including the final section back to Eynsford station. If warm and sunny weather is expected, please bring water, sun-cream and appropriate headgear. Our plan is to meet at Bromley South Station at 11:35 to catch the 11:49 Thameslink train to Eynsford. The same train calls at several stations in our borough – namely Beckenham Hill, Ravensbourne, Shortlands, Bickley and St Mary Cray. The final destination of the train is Sevenoaks. Trains run at 30-minute intervals on this line, so getting back to Bromley isn’t a problem. Eynsford is just outside the oyster zone, which ends at Swanley. The day’s itinerary is as follows:- 12:30 – <a href="https://whatpub.com/pubs/GRA/0077/five-bells-eynsford">Five Bells</a>, High Street, DA4 0AB 13:30 – Walk to Farningham. 14:00 – <a href="https://whatpub.com/pubs/GRA/0159/pied-bull-farningham">Pied Bull</a>, High Street, DA4 0DG 14:45 – <a href="https://whatpub.com/pubs/GRA/0125/lion-hotel-farningham">Lion Hotel</a>, High Street, DA4 0DP 15:45 – <a href="https://whatpub.com/pubs/GRA/0038/chequers-farningham">Chequers</a>, 87 High Street, DA4 0DT 16:30 – Walk back to Eynsford. 17:00 – <a href="https://whatpub.com/pubs/GRA/0128/malt-shovel-eynsford">Malt Shovel</a>, Station Road DA4 0ER2023-06-252023-06-26en-GB0https://bromley.camra.org.uk/event/eynsford-to-farningham-and-back-again-social-2/1gcnf87ap6rovtt72bq3tvkaor@google.com

CANCELLED – Day trip to Rye (Sussex) by train

Unfortunately the RMT have called a strike for the date of this trip, so we can no longer rely on the planned rail travel. We hope that the trip can be rearranged for a later date. THIS EVENT IS CANCELLED. ———————————– This is one of our occasional “out of branch area” trips, this time to the historic and picturesque town of Rye, located two miles from the coast in East Sussex. Rye is a very small town, and for anyone of normal fitness, walking between the various pubs that we visit will present no problem. Rye station is on a branch line which runs along the South coast. So our plan is catch the 10:03 from Orpington to St.Leonards/Warrior Square, changing there to catch the 11.20 connecting train to Rye, arriving in Rye at 11.47. At the time of writing, the detailed agenda for the day has not been finalised, but a handout guide to Rye pubs will be available on the day. Some of the pubs that we may visit include the following :- <ul> <li><a href="https://whatpub.com/pubs/HES/RYEAB-7500/standard-inn-rye">The Standard Inn</a></li> <li><a href="https://whatpub.com/pubs/HES/RYEAB-7000/ship-inn-rye">The Ship Inn</a></li> <li><a href="https://whatpub.com/pubs/HES/RYEAB-4000/mermaid-inn-rye">The Mermaid Inn</a></li> <li><a href="https://whatpub.com/pubs/HES/RYEAB-9000/ypres-castle-inn-rye">The Ypres Castle Inn</a></li> <li><a href="https://whatpub.com/pubs/HES/76/waterworks-rye">The Waterworks</a></li> </ul>2023-07-222023-07-23en-GB0https://bromley.camra.org.uk/event/day-trip-to-rye-sussex-by-train/3pnp0blc4jifci3vckv9mlar3r@google.com

Summer of pub social to Cudham and Halstead

This is a replacement event due to the proposed rail strike on this date. However it creates a chance to visit two of the best pubs close to Bromley’s border with Kent, both of which have extensive gardens. The second pub is actually (just) in Kent proper. Both pubs serve food, as well as a range of cask ales. The itinerary is as follows (12.30) <a href="https://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12594/blacksmiths-arms-cudham">The Blacksmith’s Arms</a>, Cudham (15.20) The <a href="https://whatpub.com/pubs/TTW/59/rose-crown-halstead">Rose & Crown</a>, Otford Lane, Halstead Our plan is travel on the R10 bus from Orpington bus station (next to the railway station) at 12:03, to arrive at the pub at around 12.30. The bus calls at Green Street Green at 12:21. At 14:50 we depart The Blacksmith’s Arms to catch the R10 bus which is due at 14:58. We should arrive at The Rose & Crown by 15:20. The next bus back towards Orpington will be the R10 due at 17:29, but buses are infrequent on this route. The full timetable can be seen <a href="http://www.londonbusroutes.net/times/R05R10.htm">here</a>. IF TRAINS ARE RUNNING, it’s also possible to walk from the Rose and Crown to Knockholt station – allow 40 minutes unless you’re a quick walker. It’s an enjoyable rural walk though, and is entirely flat or downhill. There is more information about the walk <a href="https://bromley.camra.org.uk/wp-content/Pub-Walks/50-v1.2.pdf">here</a>.

Summer Cramble from Hayes to Keston, Downe and Farnborough

An annual “Cramble” (CAMRA ramble ) has become something of a branch tradition and offers a chance to combine a healthy walk of about 6 miles with visits to up to six of of our more rural pubs, all of which serve cask ale. The route mainly follows some of Bromley CAMRA’s “pub walks”. Click <a href="https://bromley.camra.org.uk/pub-walks/">here</a> to see details of all of our pub walks. Our plan is meet at the front of Hayes station which can be reached by train or by using bus routes 119, 138, 246 or 314 from Central Bromley or the 353 from Orpington. In all cases alight at Hayes Station. The walk will begin 11:30, so please arrive in good time. We then walk the 1.3 miles to Keston where will have our first pub break. See Pub Walks – Route 1. Keston offers a choice of either the <a href="http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12503/greyhound-keston">Greyhound</a> or the <a href="http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12504/fox-inn-keston">Fox</a>. Duly refreshed, at 13:00 we will begin the 2.5 mile walk to Downe. This roughly follows pub walks 4 and 5, although we have altered the route slightly to avoid a number of stiles near the end of the route. Downe also has two pubs serving cask ale – these are the <a href="goog_1861570787">George and </a><a href="http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12560/george-dragon-downe">Dragon</a> and the <a href="http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12559/queens-head-downe">Queen’s Head</a>. At 15:00 we will begin the final section of the walk which follows pub walk 8 for 2.1 miles to Farnborough. Once again, there is a choice of pubs at Farnborough, these being the <a href="http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12555/change-of-horses-farnborough">Change of Horses</a> and the <a href="http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12554/woodman-farnborough">Woodman</a>. Farnborough is served by bus route 358 which offers an easy way back to Bromley, Beckenham or Orpington.2023-08-122023-08-13en-GB0https://bromley.camra.org.uk/event/summer-cramble-from-hayes-to-keston-downe-and-farnborough/0nu07jiuhcjimbpod3c19vuf1h@google.com

Joint social with Orpington Liberal Club to the Little Gem in Aylesford

This social could be affected by railway engineering work or by industrial action by railway employees – if so we will update this calendar entry as soon as we become aware. But hopefully, this will be a first-ever visit by Bromley CAMRA to the picturesque and historic village of Aylesford in the Medway Valley, in a joint social with our friends at Orpington Liberal Club. The plan is to catch the 11:06 from Bromley South (calling at St Mary Cray at 11:12) where most of the OLC contingent are likely to join us. This train continues to Dover, but we change at Rochester and then Strood to get the Medway Valley branch line service to Aylesford, arriving at 12:19. The station is just over half a mile from the pub. The <a href="https://whatpub.com/pubs/MAI/7/little-gem-aylesford">Little Gem</a> is a grade II listed pub, and is now an outlet for Goachers beers which are brewed nearby. There are also some other pubs (and a village club) in Aylesford. The writer (TW) will probably try to visit the nearby <a href="https://whatpub.com/pubs/MAI/6/chequers-aylesford">Chequers</a> which is also grade II listed, and looks like the highlight of the other pubs.2023-08-192023-08-20en-GB0https://bromley.camra.org.uk/event/joint-social-with-orpington-liberal-club-to-the-little-gem-in-aylesford/69joento5uilafclsd7kmc58h0@google.com

Social at East Malling beer festival. CANCELLED DUE TO RAIL STRIKE.

We had hoped to arrange a return visit to this popular and well-organised festival. The festival is organised by Maidstone and Mid-Kent CAMRA and entry is free for CAMRA members. However, industrial action by the RMT rail union means that we cannot travel by train to the festival, and we have therefore cancelled the social. We are aware that some members will still do their best to attend the festival, and also that the festival organisers are laying on additional shuttle buses from the surrounding area. For more information about those arrangements, and for information about the festival itself, please use <a href="https://mmk.camra.org.uk/viewnode.php?id=104662">this link</a>. To avoid leaving a gap in the calendar, we have arranged an additional social in Bromley for Monday September 4th.2023-09-022023-09-03en-GBEast Malling Research Centre, New Rd, East Malling, Kent ME19 6BJ0https://bromley.camra.org.uk/event/branch-social-at-east-malling-beer-festival-2/52to7saa4gbnqs7jphqjvqstmi@google.com

Tour of Bexley area micropubs starting at the Kentish Belle.

Many readers of the diary will be aware of the large number of micropubs which have opened in the Bexley CAMRA area over the last few years. We have noticed that many of them are situated close to bus routes, so we have used that fact to plan this social. The first pub is within a few yards of Bexleyheath station which unfortunately is not served by any direct trains from the Bromley branch area – a change at Lewisham or Nunhead is needed. Bus travel from Bromley will vary depending on your starting point, so the best bet is to use the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://tfl.gov.uk/plan-a-journey/&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw3nlDcrC4OkMcuc_91aBGhP" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TfL journey planner</a>.

Branch social at the Tonbridge Juddians RFC Winter Beer Festival

We have visited the SIBA festival held at this venue before in summer. This time we are visiting the club’s own beer festival which is more focused on winter ales. It’s a much smaller affair than the summer festival, so we may find time to visit other Tonbridge pubs, possibly including the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://whatpub.com/pubs/TTW/162/nelson-arms-tonbridge&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw1xzI6cdHmTUtish2jU8Ohi" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nelson Arms</a> which is the current Kent regional pub of the year and has been chosen as one of the four finalists in CAMRA’s National Pub of the Year competition. We will be meeting at 10.50 at Orpington Station, and will be taking the train at 11.03. Please arrive punctually if you wish to take advantage of a groupsave fare with other members.

Summer Cramble from Biggin Hill to Farnborough. Meet at The Black Horse (noon)

An annual “Cramble” (CAMRA ramble ) has become something of a branch tradition and offers a chance to combine a healthy walk of about 7 miles with visits to up to six of of our more rural pubs, all of which serve cask ale. The route mainly follows some of Bromley CAMRA’s “pub walks”. Click <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://bromley.camra.org.uk/pub-walks/&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw0UrcuMNk2kj-7lLO8lruX6" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a> to see details of all of our pub walks.

Branch social at East Malling beer festival.

A return visit to this popular and well-organised festival which is organised by Maidstone and Mid-Kent CAMRA. Entry is free for CAMRA members (but £6 for non-members, so don’t forget your membership card!). We plan to meet at Bromley South at 9:00 in order to catch the 9:23 train, changing at Swanley to arrive at West Malling at 10:22. From there a free bus service leaves at 10:35 to the festival. For those who prefer to avoid the bus, it is also possible to walk to the festival from East Malling station (takes about 20 minutes). The first train we use is a Thameslink stopping service, so it may be easier for some member to board the train at Shortlands, Bickley or other places that the train calls.

We have visited the SIBA festival held at this venue before in summer. This time we are visiting the club’s own beer festival which is more focused on winter ales. It’s a much smaller affair than the summer festival with around 20 cask ales, so we may find time to visit other Tonbridge pubs, possibly including the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://whatpub.com/pubs/TTW/162/nelson-arms-tonbridge&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw1xzI6cdHmTUtish2jU8Ohi" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nelson Arms</a> which is the current Kent regional pub of the year and was chosen as one of the four finalists in CAMRA’s National Pub of the Year competition in 2023.

Out of area social to Faversham (Kent).

With winter now officially over (Spring equinox is on the 20th), we will have our first trip outside our area of the New Year, in the form of a day trip to Faversham – home to the Shepherd Neame brewery (est. 1698), one of oldest surviving businesses in the country. The plan is to meet at Bromley South station at 11:15 in order to catch the 11.27 train to direct to Faversham, arriving at 12:25. One of the town’s most well-known pubs is right by the station, so we will begin our tour there at 12.30.

This pub is located about a mile north of the town, close to the Swale which separates mainland Kent from the Isle of Sheppey. Due to the remoteness, minicabs will be arranged, although the intrepid may enjoy the walk. Various routes are available, including along the Saxon Shore Way.

Good Friday social at The Greyhound (Keston) beer festival

This event is a late addition to our diary as we were unsure whether the event would go ahead this year. The return of the traditional Easter beer festival at <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12503/greyhound-keston&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw2S77Ma1gf5g4cFLksBdbYP" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Greyhound</a> which – as usual – will run from Good Friday to Easter Monday. The festival traditionally features a range of beers which are not normally available in this area. Temporary stillage is normally erected at the rear of the pub, so that all the 16 or so beers are available all the time, rather than being rotated through the handpumps as happens at some other pub beer festivals. More information will follow on this page, including a beer list if we receive it. Bromley CAMRA have a reserved table at this event from noon. The pub isn’t close to any railway station, but can easily be reached using the 146 or 246 buses from Central Bromley. Both routes pass Bromley South station. Alight at Keston/The Fox. Neither of these is a high frequency route, so it’s worth checking the timetable.2025-04-182025-04-19en-GB0https://bromley.camra.org.uk/event/good-friday-social-at-the-greyhound-keston-beer-festival-2/

Social at the London CAMRA Branches Spring Cider and Perry festival

The London spring cider festival returns again this year on Saturday April 25th with a fine selection of traditional ciders and perries from small producers around the country and also including a number from London cider makers. This venue is a short (about 400 yards) walk from Elephant & Castle station, which can be reached by direct trains from Bromley South and other stations on the Thameslink line through the borough. An alternative route would be to travel to London Bridge and then use the tube to get to Elephant and Castle. Doors open at noon, and the festival will remain open until 9pm unless all the drink is sold out earlier.

Summer Solstice Social to the 27th South Downs Beer & Cider Festival (Lewes)

This social combines a day out to the attractive Sussex town of Lewes with a visit to a long-established beer festival run by Brighton CAMRA. Our plan is to meet at East Croydon at 9:50am to catch 10:10 train to Lewes station which is a 10-minute walk away from the festival venue in the Corn Exchange. Note that getting to East Croydon from Bromley is now much easier and quicker due to the newish Superloop SL5 bus service. This takes 25 minutes from Bromley South to East Croydon station, and there are buses every few minutes. The link below is the official festival webpage. Note that the purchase of tickets in advance is encouraged. <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://brighton.camra.org.uk/viewnode.php?id%3D255529&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw2LGvJX1FCWWZVmdQoduwPb" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://brighton.camra.org.uk/viewnode.php?id=255529</a>2025-06-212025-06-22en-GB0https://bromley.camra.org.uk/event/summer-solstice-social-to-the-27th-south-downs-beer-cider-festival-lewes/

Summer Cramble from Knockholt to Chelsfield.

An annual “Cramble” (CAMRA ramble ) has become something of a branch tradition and offers a chance to combine a healthy walk with visits to some of our more rural pubs, all of which serve cask ale. The route mainly follows some of Bromley CAMRA’s “pub walks”. Click <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://bromley.camra.org.uk/pub-walks/&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw0UrcuMNk2kj-7lLO8lruX6" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a> to see details of all of our pub walks. This cramble is rather shorter and less arduous than some of the previous ones. Our plan is to meet at Knockholt Station at noon. This station is located between Orpington and Sevenoaks and is the final station on the line for which Oyster cards, 60+ cards and London Freedom Passes can be used. There is a train scheduled from Orpington at 11:44 which will arrive at Knockholt at 11:50. The walk will begin at noon, and will follow the itinerary below.

Branch social at East Malling beer festival.

A return visit to this popular and well-organised festival which is organised by Maidstone and Mid-Kent CAMRA. Entry is free for CAMRA members (but £6 for non-members, so don’t forget your membership card!). We plan to meet at Bromley South at 9:00 in order to catch the 9:23 train, changing at Swanley to arrive at West Malling at 10:22. From there a free bus service is provided to the festival. For those who prefer to avoid the bus, it is also possible to walk to the festival from East Malling station (takes about 20 minutes). The first train we use is a Thameslink stopping service, so it may be easier for some member to board the train at Shortlands, Bickley or other places that the train calls. Here’s a link to the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.nationalrail.co.uk/plan-a-journey/&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw35hR62G4I0FWWoKDsK0WpC" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Network Rail Journey Planner</a>.

A Day out on The Crouch Valley Rail Ale Trail

An out of area social to the East of Essex, where a cluster of excellent cask ale venues await us on the 16 mile picturesque rural branch line from Wickford to Southminster. Our plan is to meet at Stratford station at 10.00am in order to catch the 10.20 train (which will be heading to Southend Victoria). Depending on where you live, some of us will find it easier to get to Liverpool Street where the same train leaves at 10.13. For most people, the cheapest ticket will be a super off-peak day return to Southminster, and for those with a 60+ card or a freedom pass it will be cheaper to buy the return from Romford. We will leave this train at Wickford to join our first train on the Crouch Valley line to the first stop at Battlesbridge. Our first venue of the day will be at 11.15 at <a href="https://camra.org.uk/pubs/one-green-bottle-battlesbridge-142944">One Green Bottle</a>, Maltings Road, Battlesbridge SS11 7RF. This micropub is situated in an Antiques Dealer’s village, so you may wish to explore for some collectables!.

Our third committee meeting in the upstairs room at the<a href="https://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12491/lord-holmesdale-bromley"> Lord Holmesdale</a> which is situated opposite the main Bromley Tesco in Homesdale Road. This is a pub which is trying to increase its real ale offering, so hopefully we can provide some encouragement in the form of cask ale sales. To reach the pub, there is a 15 minute walk from Bickley station or to avoid that, use bus route 336 (Catford to Locksbottom via Central Bromley), and alight at the nearby Lord Homesdale bus stop (yes I know that the bus stop spelling doesn’t match the pub name – take it up with TfL, not me! – TW).

Biggin Hill and Bromley Common Social beginning at the Black Horse

This social combines visits to two traditional pubs in the south of the borough and which are linked by the 320 bus route which goes past the front door of both of them. We begin at 19:30 at the <a href="http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12598/black-horse-biggin-hill">Black Horse</a> which has improved its real ale offering in recent years and is worth a visit if you haven’t tried it recently. Despite its remote location in Biggin Hill, the pub is easy to get to since it has a bus stop outside its front door on the high-frequency 320 route which starts in Catford and passes both Bromley North and Bromley South stations. Alight at Biggin Hill/Black Horse. Routes 246, 464 and R2 also serve this stop, but are less frequent. We will then continue to the well-known and recently refurbished <a href="http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12511/two-doves-bromley-common">Two Doves</a>, arriving at about 21:30, using the 320, and alighting at Oakley Road/The Limes stop.

The taproom provides whatever is currently ready on draught, but in keg form only. There are eight taps in total with usually one or two guest beers from other South London microbreweries, such as Gipsy Hill. The name of the microbrewery is derived from the postcode of BR3. Please check the website and social media for the latest beer range. The microbrewery is very close to Clock House railway station, or can be reached using bus routes 194, 227, 354 or 358. Alight at Clock House.

Branch Social at Bexley CAMRA Beer Festival

Venue : Old Dartfordians Sports Club, War Memorial Club House, Bourne Rd, Bexley DA5 1LW A consistently excellent beer festival. The venue can be reached by train to Bexley station, or alternatively catch the 269 from Bromley North to Bexleyheath (via Bickley, Chislehurst and Sidcup) and alight at Bexley War Memorial. Either way a walk of about 15 minutes is then needed, although a short journey on local bus routes 132, 229 or 492 from Bexley can be used to get closer. Alight at Hartford Road. (Note by TW – I looked into whether the new Superloop bus route SL3 would make the journey even easier. It doesn’t!. But if you just miss the 269 at Bromley North, and an SL3 arrives, the latter will probably overtake the former by Chislehurst or Sidcup as its a limited stop service). There is more info about the festival at <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://bexley.camra.org.uk/beer_festival.html&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw0LefKnO3ewc33JZIbSooAS" target="_blank" rel="noopener">http://bexley.camra.org.uk/beer_festival.html</a> Use <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://whatpub.com/pubs/BEX/110/dartfordians-community-sports-club-bexley&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw3useOMcPRXistZ3SueUzEc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">this link</a> to see the WhatPub entry for the venue.

Branch Social at South-East London CAMRA Beer Festival (in Dulwich)

Venue : Dulwich Hamlets Football Club, Champion Hill, Edgar Kail Way, London SE22 8BD A different venue for the SEL festival this year at Dulwich Hamlets football club. The festival runs from the 23rd to the 25th, and is open from noon to 10:30pm each day. Up to 50 cask ales will be available as well as around 25 ciders and perries. Admission is £3 for CAMRA members and this includes a commemorative beer glass (which however cannot be returned for a refund). For most members in our branch area, the most convenient way to reach the venue is by using the train to East Dulwich station which is little more than 100 metres from the venue. This station can be reached by using the half-hourly stopping service from Beckenham Junction to London Bridge. The service also stops in our branch area at Birkbeck and Crystal Palace.

Biggin Hill and Bromley Common Social beginning at the Black Horse

This social combines visits to three traditional pubs in the south of the borough which are linked by the 320 bus route. We begin at 19:30 at the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12598/black-horse-biggin-hill&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw2D8s5Lm14iT_8HAgdq1mp7" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Black Horse</a> which has improved its real ale offering in recent years and is worth a visit if you haven’t tried it recently. Despite its remote location in Biggin Hill, the pub is easy to get to since it has a bus stop outside its front door on the high-frequency 320 route which starts in Catford and passes both Bromley North and Bromley South stations. Alight at Biggin Hill/Black Horse. Routes 246, 464 and R2 also serve this stop, but are less frequent. We will then continue (using the 320 to the Oakley Road/The Limes stop) to the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12512/bird-in-hand-bromley-common&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw1z-22zYuyElUhDtrDeiTyn" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bird in Hand</a>, which has recently reinstated real ale after a few years absence, as part of a major refurbishment.

The 273, R2, R3 and R7 routes also pass close by. In all cases, alight at Petts Wood Station. The venue was Bromley’s first micropub having opened in 2014 on a site previously occupied by a wine bar. It has since won an array of CAMRA awards, including Greater London CAMRA Pub of the Year in 2015. The social begins at 7pm.

The village can be reached the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.londonbusroutes.net/times/146.htm&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw3Yv5AFWED-sMGyvX7_NP2t" target="_blank" rel="noopener">146</a> from Bromley North/South or the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.londonbusroutes.net/times/R08.htm&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw0rRRdLDbqaz21n9s9v3Zf0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">R8</a> (Orpington station to Biggin Hill) and alight at the terminus in Downe Village. But the services are infrequent (approximately hourly for the 146 and every 90 minutes for the R8) so check the timetable, and in the case of the R8 check the return times as well because it doesn’t normally run at all after mid-evening. At the time of writing, the last 146 leaves Downe at 11.20pm. The social begins at the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12560/george-dragon-downe&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw1puWcoKdnZvHFzOvbgO9ot" target="_blank" rel="noopener">George and Dragon</a> at 7.30pm before continuing a few yards to the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12559/queens-head-downe&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw23WKULKaty9ojzgOyMjcF9" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Queens Head</a> at 8.30pm.Europe/London

AMENDED Real Ale Way to Real Ale Way social, starting in HAYES

This social has been amended due to road closures in Hayes at the time we were planning to visit. However , it still provides an opportunity to visit both of the superb Real Ale Way micropubs that we have in our borough. We will now begin at the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/15134/real-ale-way-hayes&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw2moLW8iD6xAH0N4G9hpMSD" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Hayes venue</a>, at 2pm. This family-owned micropub opened its doors in July 2018, and offers a most welcome option for local drinkers and rail commuters alike. The pub overlooks the entrance to Hayes station, and is also served by numerous bus routes. Up to 9 real ales are served on gravity from a coldroom to the rear of the bar. The social continues (using the 119 bus) to the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/15143/real-ale-way-west-wickham&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw3yHrPg_DLGRN-eydW-z402" target="_blank" rel="noopener">West Wickham venue</a> where we plan to arrive at around 15:45. This micropub opened in September 2021. It operates in a similar manner to its predecessor in Hayes, with up to seven cask ales, almost all of which are sourced from smaller breweries in Kent, dispensed by gravity from a coldroom. West Wickham railway station is a few minutes walk away. To reach the pub from central Bromley, use the high-frequency 119 bus and alight at High Street/Wickham Court Road Road which is near the pub. From Beckenham use the 194.Europe/London

Out of area micropub social starting in Sidcup

A chance to visit three micropubs, which are located outside our branch area but which can be reached pretty easily from Bromley. We begin at the Hackney Carriage in Sidcup. From Central Bromley, the best way to get there is by bus. Use either the 269 or the new Superloop SL3 service, both of which begin their journeys outside Bromley North station. They also both call nearby Bickley and Chislehurst stations. Alight at Sidcup station. We then continue to the Halfway House, which can be reached using a modest walk or with the 286 bus, before finishing at the River Ale House which again can be reached using the 286. The full schedule is as follows:- 19:00 <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://whatpub.com/pubs/BEX/126/hackney-carriage-sidcup&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw0vTG9_bIPmqp1IKat3G_04" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hackney Carriage</a>, 165 Station Rd, Sidcup DA15 7AA 20:15 <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://whatpub.com/pubs/BEX/155/halfway-house-sidcup&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw3KgZ_5rWOV4FyEFUEQvsMt" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Halfway House</a>, 188c Halfway Street, Sidcup DA15 8D 21:40 <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://whatpub.com/pubs/SEL/13610/river-ale-house-greenwich&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw3NgLLTQ5lUErVw2aa60Vb9" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The River Ale House</a>, 131 Woolwich Road, East Greenwich SE10 0RJEurope/London

What better way to get the excesses of Xmas out of the system than by joining our traditional brisk walk between some of the pubs in Bromley North! Our event starts at the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12493/crown-anchor-bromley&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw1NUE6W1UFQJ_OUO8YdTby4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Crown and Anchor</a> at 1.30pm. The pub is located a short walk away from Bromley North Station/bus terminal and the Market Square, and usually has beers from Bexley brewery available. We then intend to the pubs shown below, although we have noted instances in the past where pubs have changed their opening hours at short notice around Christmas. But with so many pubs in the vicinity, no-one needs to go thirsty. 2.20pm. <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12494/freelands-tavern-bromley&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw3-rIF6eQ27XXOJFMMagvfy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Freelands Tavern</a> 3.10pm. <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12497/red-lion-bromley&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw0b8HsV3yiaJO7zp-1EWwRZ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Red Lion</a>Europe/London

Wassail Social featuring the Ravensbourne Morris at the Greyhound (Keston)

Note that this social was originally planned for the Two Doves, but has been changed due to the (hopefully) temporary closure of that pub. Our first social of the New Year takes us to <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12503/greyhound-keston&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw2S77Ma1gf5g4cFLksBdbYP" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Greyhound</a>. The pub isn’t close to any railway station, but can be reached using the 146 or 246 buses from Central Bromley. Alight at Keston/The Fox. Neither of these is a high frequency route, so it’s worth checking the timetable. Usually several cask ales available. More information about the Keston wassail is available on the facebook post below. <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.facebook.com/events/1109895774182716&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw1pIAwc7Eddl0bF9eZyWXgw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Keston Wassail | Facebook</a> Europe/London

This is a pub which is trying to increase its real ale offering, so hopefully we can provide some encouragement in the form of cask ale sales. To reach the pub, there is a 15 minute walk from Bickley station or to avoid that, use bus route 336 (Catford to Locksbottom via Central Bromley), and alight at the nearby Lord Homesdale bus stop (yes I know that the bus stop spelling doesn’t match the pub name – take it up with TfL, not me! – TW).

Bromley Common social beginning at the Hit or Miss.

Tonight’s social offers a chance to visit three varied pubs in the Bromley Common area, all of which serve cask ale. We begin at 19:00 at the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/15150/hit-or-miss-bromley-common&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw0SFUtFQeBfSrrpD-FquMvb" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Hit or Miss</a> which opened its doors for the first time on in October 2022, in premises which were previously occupied by a computer repair and sales shop. It describes itself thus: A cafe by day, a microbar by night. To get there, use bus routes 61, 208, 261, 320 or 358 and alight at Southlands Road. The next pub is the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12514/bricklayers-arms-bromley&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw15jt2Gdezk-xWHFjKuD3R4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bricklayers Arms</a> which is a comfortable and recently renovated Shepherd Neame pub. We are due at 20:00. We continue next door (literally!) to the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12515/cork-n-cask-bromley&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw0Wj4mVy4H-XIcQfLdE6RX8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cork n Cask</a> . If the name seems unfamiliar, it’s because until relatively recently it was known as the Bitter End Bar, and as such was the first micropub in Bromley town centre. After a brief closure it reopened on August 25, 2023. The pub is passed by numerous bus routes including routes 61, 208, 261, 320, 336 and 358. Alight at the Bertha James Centre if the bus is heading toward Central Bromley, or at the Homesdale Road stop if you are travelling in the other direction. We are due at 20:50.Europe/London

A chance to visit arguably <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12594/blacksmiths-arms-cudham&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw27R0jLNKCDDJP5MxvclKHy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">one of the most rural pubs in the branch area</a>, situated only a few hundred yards from the boundary with Kent. As well as a decent range of cask beers, the pub also boasts an extensive food menu and one of the most attractive pub gardens in our branch area. Our plan is travel to the pub using the R5/R10 bus route which is a circular route beginning and ending its journey at Orpington bus station (adjacent to the railway station). The particular bus we have in mind leaves the bus station at 13:18, calling at Green St. Green at 13:33, and arriving at the Blacksmiths Arms at 14:00. <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.londonbusroutes.net/times/R05R10.htm&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw0Pr6BwT-Ds-6Ea4JWVpuUC" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Here</a> is a link to the full timetable.

Biggin Hill & Keston social starting at the Black Horse

A chance to to make the best of a long summer evening by visiting two of our branch area’s more rural pubs. We begin at <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12598/black-horse-biggin-hill&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw2D8s5Lm14iT_8HAgdq1mp7" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Black Horse</a> at 7:30pm. The Black Horse has improved its real ale offering in recent years and is worth a visit if you haven’t tried it recently. Despite its remote location in Biggin Hill, the pub is easy to get to since it has a bus stop outside its front door on the high-frequency 320 route which starts in Catford and passes both Bromley North and Bromley South stations. Alight at Biggin Hill/Black Horse. Routes 246, 464 and R2 also serve this stop, but are less frequent. From there we will again use the 320 to reach the <a href="http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12506/kings-arms-keston">King’s Arms</a> in Keston, with arrival scheduled for 9:00pm. This pub has experienced a rather turbulent few years with periods of being closed and also being a Turkish restaurant. This will be our first social there since it reopened as a pub on May 8, 2025.Europe/London

Committee Meeting at The Sydney Arms (Chislehurst)

Tonight’s meeting is being held in an <a href="https://camra.org.uk/pubs/sydney-arms-chislehurst-128177">attractive pub</a> which used to be located on the main road from Bromley to Sidcup – until a new main road was built. So it’s now rather hidden away on a minor road. The only nearby bus routes are the 269 (Bromley North to Bexleyheath) or the 160 if you are travelling from Central Chislehurst. Alight at Ashfield Lane. (The new Superloop SL5 route also passes near but it’s an express service and so rather unhelpfully doesn’t stop here). Bromley CAMRA members who are not on the committee are always welcome to attend committee meetings. Non-committee members planning to attend a meeting may request the Secretary (<a href="mailto:secretary@bromley.camra.org.uk">secretary@bromley.camra.org.uk</a>) to prepare and print a pack of relevant committee papers to be made available at the meeting.

Branch social at The Hope (Carshalton) Dark Beer Festival.

<a href="https://camra.org.uk/pubs/hope-carshalton-141412" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Hope</a> has frequently been Greater London CAMRA’s Pub of the Year, and its autumn dark beer festival has become an eagerly-anticipated annual event. For those who have never visited before, the pub is no more than 5 minutes walk from Carshalton station which is served by Southern trains from Victoria via Clapham Junction, and by Thameslink services from Blackfriars via Herne Hill. Those who haven’t been for a number of years will notice that this successful community-owned pub has been expanded to the rear with lots more seating now available. If you can’t wait until 5pm, the pub opens at noon.Europe/London

Post Xmas social starting at the Crown and Anchor (Bromley North)

What better way to get the excesses of Xmas out of the system than by joining our traditional brisk walk between some of the pubs in Bromley North! Our event starts at the <a href="https://camra.org.uk/pubs/crown-anchor-bromley-128097" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Crown and Anchor</a> at 1.30pm. The pub is located a short walk away from Bromley North Station/bus terminal and the Market Square, and usually has beers from Bexley brewery available. We then intend to visit the pubs shown below, although we have noted instances in the past where pubs have changed their opening hours at short notice around Christmas. But with so many pubs in the vicinity, no-one needs to go thirsty. 2.20pm. <a href="https://camra.org.uk/pubs/freelands-tavern-bromley-128098" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Freelands Tavern</a> 3.10pm. <a href="https://camra.org.uk/pubs/red-lion-bromley-128101" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Red Lion</a>Europe/London

From Central Bromley, use buses 162 (Beckenham Junction to Eltham), 269 (Bromley North to Bexleyheath) or the Superloop SL3 service.

Bromley Common social beginning at the Hit or Miss.

Tonight’s social offers a chance to visit three varied pubs in the Bromley Common area, all of which serve cask ale. We begin at 19:30 at the <a href="https://camra.org.uk/pubs/hit-or-miss-bromley-common-196416" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Hit or Miss</a> which opened its doors for the first time on in October 2022, in premises which were previously occupied by a computer repair and sales shop. It describes itself thus: A cafe by day, a microbar by night. To get there, use bus routes 61, 208, 261, 320 or 358 and alight at Southlands Road. The next pub is the <a href="https://camra.org.uk/pubs/bricklayers-arms-bromley-128118" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bricklayers Arms</a> which is a comfortable and recently renovated Shepherd Neame pub. We are due at 20:30. We continue next door (literally!) to the <a href="https://camra.org.uk/pubs/cork-n-cask-bromley-128119" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cork n Cask</a> . If the name seems unfamiliar, it’s because until relatively recently it was known as the Bitter End Bar, and as such was the first micropub in Bromley town centre. After a brief closure it reopened on August 25, 2023. The pub is passed by numerous bus routes including routes 61, 208, 261, 320, 336 and 358. Alight at the Bertha James Centre if the bus is heading toward Central Bromley, or at the Homesdale Road stop if you are travelling in the other direction. We are due at 21:30.Europe/London

Social at Orpington Liberal Club Spring Real Ale & Cider Festival

The Easter weekend is marked by this festival of seasonal cask ales and ciders. The club plan to have up to 30 cask beers and draught ciders as well as 2 keg beers available. Bromley CAMRA are having a social at the first night (Thursday) of the festival, which will be a preview night with access limited to OLC and CAMRA members only. Doors open at 18.00. Don’t forget your CAMRA membership card as it is required for entry. We anticipate that the club will be presented with an award for being (one of only four) National finalists in CAMRA’s 2025 Club of the Year competition during the course of the evening. The festival proper then opens at noon on the Friday and Saturday, closing at 11pm on both days.

Easter Saturday social at The Greyhound (Keston) beer festival

The return of the traditional Easter beer festival at <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12503/greyhound-keston&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw2S77Ma1gf5g4cFLksBdbYP" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Greyhound</a> which will run from Good Friday to Easter Sunday. The pub has changed management since the previous festival, so we are currently not sure whether the format will be same as at previous festivals. The best place to find the latest information is on the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61577086090634">pub’s facebook site</a>. Entry is free – the event is not ticketed. More information will follow on this page if and when received. The pub isn’t close to any railway station, but can easily be reached using the 146 or 246 buses from Central Bromley. Both routes start at Bromley North and also pass Bromley South station. Alight at Keston/The Fox. Neither of these is a high frequency route, so it’s worth checking the timetable.Europe/London

<a href="https://camra.org.uk/pubs/three-hounds-beer-company-clock-house-beckenham-128297">The Three Hounds</a> is a relatively new bar/pub/shop which began life by operating a delivery service during the Covid lockdown.

The pub is very close to Clock House railway station, or can be reached using bus routes 194, 227, 354 or 358. Alight at Clock House. From there we continue to <a href="https://camra.org.uk/pubs/bricklayers-arms-beckenham-128128">The Bricklayers Arms</a> which is approximately 15 minutes walk from the Three Hounds, or you can take a short bus ride using the 227 or 358. We are due to arrive at 21:30.

Committee meeting at The Lord Holmesdale (Bromley)

This committee meeting will be held in the upstairs room at the<a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://whatpub.com/pubs/BRO/12491/lord-holmesdale-bromley&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw2e3MrbUZdhXdiPldYy81SM" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Lord Holmesdale</a> which is situated opposite the main Bromley Tesco in Homesdale Road. This is a pub which is trying to increase its real ale offering, so hopefully we can provide some encouragement in the form of cask ale sales. To reach the pub, there is a 15 minute walk from Bickley station or to avoid that, use bus route 336 (Catford to Locksbottom via Central Bromley), and alight at the nearby Lord Homesdale bus stop. (yes I know that the bus stop spelling doesn’t match the pub name – take it up with TfL, not me! – TW). Bromley CAMRA members who are not on the committee are always welcome to attend committee meetings. Non-committee members planning to attend a meeting may request the Secretary (<a href="mailto:secretary@bromley.camra.org.uk" target="_blank" rel="noopener">secretary@bromley.camra.org.uk</a>) to prepare and print a pack of relevant committee papers to be made available at the meeting.Europe/London

Bromley CAMRA Pub of the Year presentation at the Cockpit (Chislehurst)

Bromley CAMRA’s 2026 Pub of the Year competition has again been won by one of our newest pubs – <a href="https://camra.org.uk/pubs/cockpit-chislehurst-128300" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Cockpit</a>. The Cockpit is Chislehurst’s first micropub, and opened its doors for the first time in late December 2020. A range of at at least 5 non-mainstream real ales are normally available, served from a cold room at the rear of the pub. The presentation of the winner’s award will be made during the evening, so a good turn out of our members would be welcome. From Central Bromley, use buses 162 (Beckenham Junction to Eltham), 269 (Bromley North to Bexleyheath) or the new Superloop SL3 service (Bromley North to Thamesmead). All these routes can be caught in Central Bromley and also pass near Bickley and Chislehurst stations. From other parts of the borough routes 61, 160, 161 or 273 can be used. In all cases alight at Chislehurst War Memorial.
