Browns of Brockley - evening openings start August 30th
Ross from Brown's of Brockley has written on this thread about his plans for the basement, following his successful application for an alcohol licence. It's worth it's own thread, so here's what he says:
I wouldn't say [what we are planning for the basement is a] wine bar, but we've spent the last month fitting out the basement with seats, storage and a toilet so that we can open in the evenings.
From next Tuesday (30th August) we will be opening in the evenings Monday - Thursday until 11pm.
It will not be, by any stretch of the imagination, somewhere to get dinner but just somewhere to have a drink after work. desgustation have helped us find a couple of wines (there will be one red, one white, one rose and probably some Prosecco) there will be a constantly changing bottled beer menu. as well as a couple of mixed drinks, which also will keep changing. Bread, cheese, meat and a couple of other snacky things and that's it.
The idea for us is to keep it very simple to start with. I would like to do some different things with food in the evenings, maybe open more evenings and extend out drink offerings in the future but we'll see how this goes for the moment.
