Antic fermenting Lewisham's Market Tavern

The Market Tavern, currently a boarded-up pub on Lewisham High Street, may be the next local pub to undergo an Antic revival.

The pub group behind Jam Circus, The Royal Albert and the Job Centre has listed the pub on its website in the coming-soon category and the SE London branch of CAMRA, which has its ear to the ground, hinted that there could be some action fairly soon.

Greater Brockley is in the middle of a much-needed pub renaissance and Lewisham is adding people and restaurants to its town centre, so it makes sense that Antic would prioritise this part of town, smack dab in the middle of Lewisham, to tighten its grip on South East London livers.
