The Door Hinge Ale House in Bexley

The first micropub in South East London, formerly a electrical wholesalers and a garden centre. Rustic interior, intimate traditional old style pub. Three cask beers on offer served in lined glasses, ensuring a full pint. A good selection of still ciders are available and a small selection of wine and spirits.

I love it when there's a cozy, homely atmosphere in a pub or ale house, and when they pour a little more than a pint into a pint glass, it definitely makes me want to leave a tip for the bartender and come back for another pint of beer in the coming days. The bonus that everyone is asked to put their phone on silent mode so as not to disturb visitors watching the movie titled "Life" peacefully.

Best beer in town. This is my most favouriteist of pubs. Can't beet the bear! Always a good selection and served straight from the barrel. And it's still good. I am always impressed by the beer. Good choices, friendly landlord and pleasant company. They had brilliant quizmaster tonight.

Great little place for a real ale.

Quant little pub.it had 2 choice of bitter but were nice good selection of ciders if that's what you like friendly staff

Always tasty beer on and a very welcoming smaller venue.

Very cosy and friendly. Good selection of ales and ciders and really reasonable prices.

Lovely little micro pub. Regulars are always great company. Weekly meat raffle, Football scores, and many many Demelza Hospice Charity fundraisers.

called in saturday lunch with a party of travellers loved it , great place and great beers recommend the place

Went on match day, very friendly and fantastic beer. Really nice atmospheres.

A lovely little micro pub that serves proper ale from local microbreweries. A real appreciation of beer and not that fizzy lager rubbish.

Lovely little place for some good quality ales! 👌 🍻

Old-school micro-pub serving gravity-dispensed cask ale, ciders, and G&T's.

Great local micropub. Learnt that it was the first in the area and opened in 2013

Excellent beers. Full of flavour and in good condition.

Excellent beer in a welcoming micropub that is in new ownership.

Very pleasant micropub, helpful staff.

I love this place. Best people great owner xxx

I visited yesterday but I will never go again! The landlord / barman is very rude. Asking if he had sauvignon for my friend and the reply was "don't be stupid only got pinot" you realise even if its a joke how inappropriate that attitude is. Yes, I know its a beer place but most other micro pubs have a little wine choice for non beer drinkers so friends don't feel left out. There is a polite way to explain the 'limited' choice sadly it escaped this barman. Avoid this place!

Good selection of beers. Welcoming staff. Worth a visit on the 51 bus route micropub tour.

Great place and nice atmosphere. Wonderful choice of ales all in great condition 👌

A small micropub. Excellent beers. A nice atmosphere. I highly recommend it to any real ale lover.

Excellent -they had free cheese and crackers when I visited. Beer was tip top. Be warned mobile phones are seriously frowned upon 😵

A lovely quiet Real Ale house that does not allow mobile phones or music. The decor is what an Ale house should be, basic, traditional and without the mod cons of normal pubs. There is no shorts eg vodka whiskey etc but there is bottles of prosecco and cider straight from the barrel. The owners are very welcoming and give you a warm, friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Great choice of beer, lovely atmosphere, good enough that I'll forgive the landlord accusing me of liking prog even though I was wearing a Bowie t shirt. Good pub, I'll be back.

A gem in Welling. All well kept cask beers of local(ish) breweries.

Busy, chatty pub. Excellent beer.

My first visit. I'd been promising myself that I would visit ever since it opened. That was 5 years ago! Excellent place with a good selection of beers and people. I met a stained glass artist from Woolwich. Can't say fairer than that. Will be visiting again soon.

Excellent ale and good friendly atmosphere

Ale is great quality. And all that is served (apart from cider). Friendly and chatty.

Basically a one man band running the place but if you like real ale you won't be disappointed.

Fantastic ales and pleasant company. The host barrells it up and serves it perfectly!

All that an ale House should be. Great inexpensive we'll kept beer with a good atmosphere.

Original. Really enjoy visiting here.

good ales and Ray the owner is knowledgeable

Lovely Micro Pub our local, and so nice to stop off for a quick pint after shopping!

Real ale and nothing more needed

Great ale in a traditional atmosphere of no phones/music/lager/spirits, but friendly banter. Try it.

Proper local pub with real ale beers.

Only been in a few times but great beers at realistic prices

Nice little pub. A bit different to the usual pubs! The owner seemed friendly too.

Very good quality beer (casks kept in an air conditioned back room!) Nice cosy atmosphere and even serves pickled eggs

Fantastic little pub purely for Real Ale! Friendly staff and customers and great traditional decor. Plenty of awards for place!

We have been going to this wonderful real ale pub since Ray opened just over 3 years ago and have to say it's got better and better. His ales are kept superbly and the atmosphere (especially Sunday lunchtimes) is friendly and lively. Highly recommend

CAMRA 2014 London Pub of the Year, do you need any more encouragement than that?
