A laid-back Camberwell local with vinyl, cocktails and an open kitchen

Inside
A proper local with a kitchen at the back
The Bear has a stripped-back, open bar with a polished counter, exposed plaster and tongue-and-groove panelling. Vinyl fills the shelves and decks, while the open kitchen adds counter seating for food. The menu changes, with modern British dishes and global influences alongside vegetarian options and pizza.
The bar
Beer, cocktails and music after dark
The drinks list covers familiar beers, cask ale, wines, spirits and cocktails. Street-side tables are available when the weather suits, while DJs play a broad mix of styles in the evening without taking over the room. There is also a pub quiz for a more organised night out.
