Drinking in Eltham - Help needed

roosel

Hey,

Was hoping someone would give me some ideas of where to take a girl for drinks in eltham as I'm not really familiar with the area.

Looking for somewhere which is a bit more modern which allows a lot of talking and serves a variety of drinks that cater for the lady.

We are both 18 if that makes a difference.

Cheers!

The Rising Sun although havn't really been inside properly since before the summer.

When I was that age, the Castle in Eltham was the place to be.
Its a KFC now ;-(

Instead of Eltham, take her up the Oxo Tower.

The Park Tavern is now a nice little pub, Rising Sun ok - not alot of other places I'd take a bird to be honest!

Do yourself a favour roosel....get a cab to Bromley.

Would head for Blackheath or Greenwich

I come from Eltham but I wouldn't take a girl out there! Get over to Blackheath for a better choice.

roosel

haha point taken. Anywhere in Bromley / Blackheath worth the time?

Nothing wrong with Eltham!

Go the Park Tavern or venture down to The Beehive (technically New Eltham).

What about the Tudor Barn, is that open for drinks?

Yes i spent a lot of time in the Tudor Barn recently whilst staying in the area. Lovely place for a drink after work. Not sure 18 year olds would enjoy it tho at nearly 4 quid a pint i think.

Blackheath/Bromley won't be much different pint wise?

Jump on the rattler & go the Amersham.

A) it's over 25's
it's not really a first date pub as it can be a bit funny in there when all the local's are out.

Go to The Union in Greenwich,Royal Hill. Young trendy crowd in the evening,fantastic if expensive beer with plenty of options for your lady friend,all brewed by local lad and life-long Charlton supporter.What's not to like?

Typical millwall trying to get the bloke in a pub brawl

The biggest problem with this site these days is the search faciltiy, or lack of one.

This used to be a fabulous community website and after 3 or 4 years had the answer to questions like this. However the "Search" just does not work anymore.

Every question about pubs in Eltham has been answered 10 fold on here but sadly if you type in Eltham Pubs into the search engine you get "Medway fails in city status bid for Diamond Jubilee" as your top find. There is plenty of info about Eltham pubs here but it's difficult to find.
This is not the best example of the inability of the search facility, try typing the word Jokes, to find the "Jokes" thread. This is on the first page at the moment but a search will lead you to Travllers Runs, Lee Cook Signs and some stupid thread about travelling from Blackheath to Charlton on the train via The Clarendon (no comment) when you can't walk too far when a walk to Blackheath station from The Clarendon (no comment) is hardly 10 yards.

Basically we need the search facility sorted.

Hello?

Ooooh i'm at Tudor Barn on Saturday night for a 'do'. I'll get extra cash out!
Tried to find the entrance to it once driving up and down well hall road, but couldn't so went elsewhere. Is there a car park?

Curb_It

No, park on the road. You walk in through the gate on that part of well hall road. Cant explain it very well.

Chirpy Red

If you're only 18 then go to The Old Post Office or The Bankers Draft.

I know nothing of the Tudor Barn except that I don't think what it offers would appeal to someone of such a tender age.

Stay away from The Park Tavern, especially if you like a pint of bitter!

looks like a great place. Only problem is the prices aren't really suitable for students.

A) Good point
Didn't realise it was a first date. What's wrong with us locals?

roosel

There is nothing wrong with The Beehive these days. Not for kids though.

There is a THREAD on The Beehive but a search only came up with "Lee Cook Signs!"

Impressed Curb_it. I'm not so computer savy as you.

But does beg the question...Why bother having the search facility?

Also took me a while to realise that "numbunts" was a insult, friendly/jokey I'm sure, rather than an internet instruction.....
