Watson's General Telegraph on Forest Hill Road is quickly becoming SE22's new favourite pub. With 20 beers on tap, a great selection of modern British food, and a vinyl DJ to set the mood, this gastropub has something for everyone. But what really sets Watson's apart is its huge beer garden, perfect for enjoying a pint in the sunshine.

Sports fans will love that Watson's shows every Six Nations game, and Guinness is always on tap. And for those who enjoy a good quiz night, Watson's hosts weekly events with a lively atmosphere and friendly competition.

But it's not just about the drinks and entertainment at Watson's - they also take pride in their beer selection. They recently added the deliciously delectable BEACH SESSION IPA to their taps, and are excited to soon offer the Spaced Cowboy IPA from Beavertown.

Overall, Watson's General Telegraph is a must-visit spot in East Dulwich for anyone looking for great drinks, food, and atmosphere.
