The best London breweries delivering craft beer to homes

Time to get the craft beers in! Order from one of London’s top breweries, now doing beer delivery in London and beyond

While we can’t wait to get back to the bar for a cool, crisp pint, we’re really grateful for the fact that you can still drink some of the best stuff going by ordering directly from London’s best breweries. Not only that, but you’re supporting some of the hardest hit small independent businesses right now. With pub doors now having been closed for so long, UK beer sales were down by 10 percent last year. So do the right thing and order in some locally made brewskis. Here’s our list of London beer makers who are now delivering directly to front doors in their neighbourhoods – or even UK-wide, if you’re outside of London but still craving a taste of the Bermondsey Beer Mile. Cheers!

The best craft beer delivery in London

  • Craft beer pubs
  • Haggerston

Adding a whole new meaning to a ‘lock-in’, Walthamstow’s Signature Brewery has launched Pub in a Box. Ideal for flatmates cooped up together, this delivery costs from £25 and will include beer glasses and mats, snacks, curated playlists and a pub quiz – not to mention those all-important tinnies (eight, 16 or 24 per order). It’s also supporting musicians who might be out of work, offering them positions as couriers for this very precious cargo. Outside of this very nice idea, the brewery is offering one to two working days on its orders.

  • Brockley

This SE London community business is running a pedal-powered beer delivery service, which is way better than that future they always predicted with flying cars and robot postmen. 
They provide a same-day, seven-days-a-week delivery for draught beer, mini-kegs, bottles and cans to all of south-east London. Order by 11am and bike deliveries arrive between noon and 7pm that day. Which is mighty impressive. SE4, SE12 and SE13 are eligible for free delivery; other SE postcodes have a £3 fee. They also do UK-wide delivery for mini-kegs kegs, bottles and cans.

Little Faith
Little Faith

Deptford Creekside’s ace Taproom Little Faith (from the Bermondsey brewers) is planning to reopen its outside yard in April, but till then, comfort yourself with its selection of beers, ales and stouts out for delivery. 

Most come as crowlers (that’s tall cans to you and me), which they hand-fill themselves, meaning they advise consumption within ten days (probably nor going to be a problem, tbh). On the roster is Old Friend, a 4% ABV bitter, oatmeal stout Americano Dream and New Colours pale ale. The stout is also available as a mini-keg. 

All of Little Faith’s output that we’ve tried is full of character and flavour – just the job for a spring sesh. Order by the end of Tuesday for delivery on Wednesdays from their website. Click and collect is also available.

  • Walthamstow

Walthamstow’s popular brewer is serving its community well with free local delivery to the following postcodes: E10, E17, E18, N16, N17, E4, E5 and IG8. The core range is all there, but you can also purchase packs of its special brews online to make drinking at home even more of a treat. You can also support the brewery by buying a bar tab for when you can next pay it a visit in person.

Southey Brewing Co
Southey Brewing Co

Penge’s fantastically atmospheric Southey Brewing Company is offering free local delivery within 2.5 miles of the brewery if you purchase six or more cans. Delivery further afield (next-day where possible) is £6. There’s a revolving stock of different beers on offer. Try the Vietnamese-style lager A Hoi (4% ABV) or the Disco Illusion IPA (5% ABV), which should merit inclusion on its name alone.

  • Deptford
  • price 2 of 4

Deptford’s awesome indie brewery has launched a home-delivery service for south-east hopheads at home. Customers can order in by the crateload (£49.20), and mix and match from the core beer range.

This Tooting taproom is keeping south-west London fuelled thanks to free delivery within a five-mile radius. While mixed cases of 24 cans for £48 should put a smile on your face, the fact you can throw in bottles of gin to boot might make the brewer’s webshop a winning go-to for your next stockpiling session.

Sambrook’s Brewery
Sambrook’s Brewery

Battersea’s Sambrook’s Brewery moved into swish new digs in Wandsworth’s ‘The Ram Quarter’ at the end of 2020, on the site of the old Young’s brewery (hence the ram, the Young’s logo). It’s like an Old Truman Brewery for people in boat shoes. Anyway, Sambrook’s continues to churn out decent quality ale that is available for delivery, Tuesday to Friday. Get a summery mini-keg or hunker down (eg under a table) with a 10.4% ABV Russian Imperial Stout. 

Order on their site.
