That the people behind the light, modern Florence care about beer is obvious from the phenomenal range on offer and the helpful tasting notes on all the pumps. In fact, as the copper vats just beyond the main bar show, they care about it enough to brew their own, and their fruity Dam Tasty Beaver and Bonobo beers are in no way overshadowed by the competition at the bar (Meantime Pale Ale, Duvel Green).

A regularly updated menu (slow-roast lamb, white bean chilli and the like) is well matched by an imaginative wine list. Past the vats, a roomy conservatory with a table football table and an open kitchen leads to a capacious decked terrace and a separate children's and garden room. Popular with all ages, and deservedly so.

I used to enjoy having a social drink at the Florence Herne Hill, I would even recommend the pub. However the las t few times I have attended the pub evenings in the week I found the bar staff rude, they dont even acknowledge you when you are at the bar waiting for a drink. The bar staff seem to sometimes look down on you. I waited once 20 minutes for a drink and watched a girl behind the bar serve punter after punter whilst I was just right in front of her. When I said to her "excuse me I have been here long before the 4 people you have just served" she turned her back her back on me and just laughed. I then said thats rude and walked off, she then said "now who's turning there back on me". The food has also been the same there for years no change has been made and its very boring. Dont go there
