Visited 06/10/26. Visited previously as same name in different ownership on 19/06/19.

No cask. Keg offering of Cornish Orchards, Asahi, Peroni, Stella, Camden Hells and Squeezy, Neck Oil, Jubel, Leffe blonde, Mahou and Modelo.

L shaped, bare boarded venue, recently re-opened after a long closure and fleeting establishments since it was last the Beehive. There is a small amount of seating at the front on a narrow strip. Bar counter follows the internal shape but shorter on the length to the rear of the venue. A leather banquette under the front netted short curtains serving regular tables with regular chairs the other side thereof, plus a bench along the left-hand wall serving a single table and then a couple of smaller tables in the middle of the floor space in front of the bar counter. There is a drinking ledge served by a few tall stools just inside the entrance. There are a couple of larger tables in the rear right-hand corner separated from each other by a head high screen, leaded glass in the top part. The venue is quite ambient with its lighting and colours, the walls housing a large mirror just inside the entrance and on the opposite wall above the solitary bench and a lot of framed prints. A couple of signed rugby shirts on the wall by the stairs down to the bathroom, not obvious what the connection is as doesn't seem like a sporting orientated venue (didn't spot any screens). Music was very background and a venue where conversations dominated on my early evening visit.

It would seem this place is virtually a Cocktail bar rather than pub, no real ale just a keg offering of Brixton Reliance. The interior decor amounted to twinkling fairy lights on the walls covered by thin sheets of hessian. one to swerve I would suggest.

Dating from 1793 and rebuilt 1894, this is an interesting mid-terraced pub, which was damaged by fire in 2015.
A first in here the other night and the first thing that struck us was the noise of the 20-something customers, in particular one shrieking woman; thankfully, I could barely hear the banal music, one tune seemingly playing throughout my stay. It’s a stripped-out pub, with opposed tatty avocado vinyl banquettes, then some normal seats and tables, with the exception of one barrel table with tall stools. The bar array is quite ornate and attractive with wood carving and plain mirrors; ivy cascaded over the top. The floor is modern boarded, with a tiled ‘path’ from entrance to bar. Walls are either match boarded or field panelled to around one third height, then magnolia Anaglypta to the remainder and ceiling; there’s an obligatory column with Corinthian capital. Décor comprises just a few framed prints, lighting is conventional.
It would appear that real ale has disappeared from this gaff, so I had to go for yet another Neck Oil, at a painful £3.10 a half.
This really isn’t a great pub. In its current state, with current customers and current absence of ale, I wouldn’t care to return. The Portman down the road is more sedate and has a choice of two quality ales at considerably lower prices.

Rated 3.5.
