Bricklayers Arms

Unforgettable Atmosphere with Charismatic Managers!

Hidden beneath the layers of lively Bromley, this pub emerges like an unexpected gem, recently polished with a touch of sophistication from its refurbishment. Walking in, you're enveloped by warm autumnal hues that lend a sense of coziness, almost as if the decor is inviting you to curl up and stay awhile. The palpable shift under new management is evident, not just in the lustrous leather armchairs and brilliantly clean tables, but also in the inclusive atmosphere where even our four-legged friends find toys and comfort awaiting them.

The real star of the show, though, has to be the menu which brims with heartwarming culinary delights. Allow me to wax lyrical about the steak and Bishops Finger pie—a homage to classic comfort with plenty of lean steak, peppered liberally amidst a warming ale sauce, served piping hot. It wins your palate over with its rich flavors, paired beautifully with perfectly mashed potatoes and tartly pickled red cabbage. Standing proudly behind the bar are kegs of finely curated draft selections that echo the heritage of Shepherd Neame, offering crisp Red ales and the subtle notes of Masterbrew that make for excellent company as you indulge in watching a game on immediate demand across several TV screens. Yet it's in the amiable hands of their ardent staff that the true tone of the place resonates—a place defined by sincere hospitality and unbridled conviviality, making it a cornerstone worthy of repeated visits, if only for another pint or an immersive open-mic night that captures the spirited essence of a classic pub. — Audrey Al Dente
