This social provides an opportunity to visit both of the superb Real Ale Way micropubs that we have in our borough.

We begin at the West Wickham venue, which opened in September 2021.   It operates in a similar manner to its better-known 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.

The social continues (using the 119 bus) to the Hayes venue  where we plan to arrive at around 15:45.   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.
