Greene King has confirmed it could be selling dozens of its pubs across the UK in a major shake up for its estate strategy - and these south east London chains could be on the menu.
The pub chain, which operates a number of venues across the UK, including pubs in Bexley, Bromley, Greenwich, Lewisham and Southwark, is said to have identified 65 of its sites for sale.
However, the company has not revealed which individual pubs are being considered.
A Greene King spokesperson said: "As part of our pub estate strategy announced earlier this year, we identified a number of pubs for potential sale in the medium term.

"As a result, we are reviewing each pub to determine the most appropriate route to market, which may involve an open sales process or a targeted off-market approach.
"In either case, prospective purchasers may seek to acquire individual or multiple sites."
Earlier this year, Greene King announced a new pub estate strategy designed to support what it described as sustainable and profitable growth.
As part of the plan, approximately 300 pubs were identified as being better suited to different operating models.
The company said around half of those venues are expected to be transferred into leased, tenanted or franchise operations within its Pub Partners division, while the remaining pubs will be considered for potential sale over the medium term.
Greene King has also said some sites with similar operational models have been presented collectively to prospective purchasers, although venues could still be acquired individually or in groups.
Greene King said it could not provide further details about the process or identify any pubs currently under review.
While it remains unclear whether any south east London pubs will ultimately be sold, Greene King currently operates venues across the area, including historic pubs, riverside sites and community locals.
