The beer experts at the Campaign for Real Ale (Camra) have published their Good Beer Guide for 2018 with the best pubs across the UK.

Knowing where to get a good pint is very important so their book is fantastic to tell where your best pubs are locally.

These are the best pubs in Greenwich and Lewisham which made the grade in the latest edition, The Good Beer Guide 2018.

The guide went on sale on September 14 for £12.99 or £10 for members of Camra.
