Is now the only pub between my place in Loughborough Junction and Brixton that is still open, whichever way you walk. Even the Paulet has recently shut.
The Hero does have a great sign by the bar though: "Order your own taxis".

Best sandwiches of any pub in South London. Made freshly every time. Cheap too. Do they still do Young's there?

I'll have to check. It's got to the point where I automatically order Guinness in a lot of pubs just 'cos it's so hard to get a decent pint of real ale in a pub not owned by an ale brewery.

The Cambria is not a bad boozer. Usually good food, not sure really about the beer.

If you're north of the river, the Wenlock does a mighty sandwich. Not sure they'd sink so low as to serve Young's, though :D

Just off the tourist trail is the Hero - I think you need to be one to use it!
