Hermit's Cave

This friendly cabin of an Irish pub has been the haunt of Camberwell’s more cultured art students since Leonardo’s time, it seems. Prices are still relatively cheap, the decor is comfortingly shabby, and the regulars still include old locals who’ve been skulking around in SE5 for donkey's years. A large TV in the saloon bar attracts football fans of the laissez jouer variety; conversation around the timeless wooden interior is the definition of bonhomie.
