CAMRA pub information update 73

The WhatPub? pub database is no more.  However the data remains available for all to use, not just CAMRA members, as part of the main CAMRA website; just go to https://camra.org.uk/pubs.  It continues to feature over 31,000 pubs that currently serve cask beer plus records of pubs that do not sell cask beer or are closed.

All of the information used has been compiled by CAMRA members and no fee is charged – or sought – for inclusion. You will find opening times, descriptions, facilities, maps and, of course, details of the cask beer and cider on offer.  You can search by specific pub name or general location.

This update is based on news items collated by CAMRA’s branches in Greater London.  We aim to report all openings and closures of pubs and clubs; those that add or remove cask beer; and changes of name, ownership or beer policy.  Readers are encouraged to ‘suggest an edit’ using the website when they find incomplete or out-of-date information (but not customer reviews, please).  Members can also ‘spot a beer’, allowing others to see what beers are currently available.

Available on the Greater London CAMRA website under Pub Updates, a longer version of this schedule includes changes to Cask Marque status, cider policy, LocAle, CAMRA discounts and pub operating model.
