What's The Best Pub In Kennington And Oval?


Part 'K' of our alphabetical pub crawl around London.

We asked you to nominate your favourite pubs and bars in the Kennington/Oval area. 192 votes were cast, across 24 venues. Here is the top 10 (see below for the four we're doing on the pub crawl).

  1. The Dog House (23 votes)
  2. Old Red Lion (21 votes)
  3. Prince of Wales (20 votes)
  4. The Ship (16 votes)
  5. The Fentiman Arms (15 votes)
  6. Brown Derby (14 votes)
  7. Cable Cafe (12 votes)
  8. Cinema Museum Bar (10 votes)
  9. The Black Prince (9 votes)
  10. The Oval Lounge (8 votes)

The map below shows where the votes went. Green dotted markers show the top four pubs, which will form our pub crawl. The rest of the top 10 are shown in yellow, while all other nominations are in red. (Note: a red pub doesn’t mean it’s a bad pub…in each case, at least one person thought this was the best, and some might be little-known or on the fringes of the area.)

6.30pm The Ship
7.30pm The Dog House
8.30pm The Prince of Wales
9.30pm The Old Red Lion
