The new manager of The Walpole has introduced himself on the New Cross forum, which seems as good an opportunity as any to create a thread dedicated to this resuscitated boozer, that was once threatened with being converted in to a hotel.
He writes:
As well as the changes on the outside (horrendous painting and yellow signage gone- sorry to anyone who had a different opinion on then) we have made quite a few changes inside as well. We now stock a great range of draught lagers and ciders including Sagres, Heineken and Symonds. At present we only have bottled ales if thats your thing but cask ale will be here as soon as I've had some more work done on the cellar. We also stock a selection of Meantime Beers in bottles as I'm all for supporting local business.
We now have a different DJ every Friday and Saturday with music ranging through from the 60's right through to the present so there should be something for everyone. We also have an open mic on a Sunday night and are now programming various events on Wednesday nights.
