Great place for a craft beer. Great staff and nice to see a cask beer on draft as well. Just wish the prices were a little more reasonable

Lovely local place. Always busy. Very friendly staff. Local peeps come here to unwind. There are theme events here also. Great quality beer. Really worth visiting when you are next in these ends. It is important to show support to the local venue and those you work hard to keep them going for us all to enjoy. Thank you for being part of the local community for years. I appreciate what you for and many others do too.

Great selection of really interesting beers in the fridge and some great options on tap. Really bridges the gap nicely between take away specialist beer shop and bar with lots of atmosphere. The guys running it were really friendly, chatty and knowledgeable as well. Will be back for sure.

A metropolis of craft beergeekiness with 10 on tap, including small batch, speciality craft beers you'll struggle to find elsewhere, taking beer into the sipping quality, long drink enjoyment of wine & liquor, sold in quarters & halfs. A modern typical tap room, small, cosy, focussed on drinking beer with other aficionados amongst fridges full of an eclectic beer variety. A hiding place with friendly, knowledgeable tapist. Great vibe music, within reclaimed wood pannelled walls. Plenty of cushioned seating in a brewery industrial style.

A small but almost perfectly formed beer shop and bar . On every visit I'm reminded of how well curated their beer selection is. If you're a lover of big juicy hazy ipas then look no further . One of the biggest issues is that it's a very hard place to leave. Oh and of course they have any other styles of beer available other than ipas . Highly recommend

A community gem and a stonking craft beer bar. Love to spend my time here with the staff and the regulars. Penge is full of good people and I swear a whole load of them gravitate to Craft! Must be something in the beer ...

Fantastic selection both on tap and in the fridges, friendly and welcoming service from the owner and the other staff. Definitely a brilliant addition to the local area. Edit: updating my review 5 years on from opening, the beer selection has gotten even better, with a brilliant curated tap list and fridges of UK and imported beers, meads and the odd cider. Food can be ordered in from yard sale and such a great community of locals

Fantastic craft beer emporium in Penge - relaxed, ambient surroundings complement whichever beer you're quaffing - fully stocked fridge and a good mix of accessible and adventurous beers on tap. Friendly staff happy to recommend and schooners too. Plus online delivery of the latest and greatest - I will return no doubt...

Cosy and relaxing place for a casual beer. Helpful and knowledgeable staff. They're serving great variety of beers. Atmosphere was cool and friendly with positive vibes. Right in Penge High Street and not far from train station.

Great place. Outstanding can and bottle range and great tap list, always rotated but with some great regular beers. The staff are super helpful and friendly. This place was ahead of it's time when it opened and its still serving up great beers all the time. Holds regular beer focused events too. Brilliant community booz hub.

Such a cosy and relaxing place to sit for a casual beer. The bartender knows all of his beers very well and can give recommendations. They’ve got a great variety of beers for every taste (yay!!) Looking forward to the next visit. My only issue was the lack of regular chairs. The high metal stools were not comfortable for long.

Nice wee beer stop is this. Great selection of local and imported brews to try. Almost too many to choose from!! 12 taps on when we popped in, with some excellent pales and IPAs to sample. You can get a schooner here too, which appeals to me. There's a few tables for sitting and scoffing, and the prices are quite reasonable for a craft beer house. Good service. Knowledgeable bar keep. Decent tunes playing as well. Definitely worth stopping in for a few quality beers. Dog friendly.

A great selection of beers of many styles, and quick delivery. Their emails highlighting their new intake are very useful. Their store in Penge has a nice tap selection, and a lot of the beers available on the site can be bought there as well.
