The Crown & Cushion is the kind of a place that we would have stopped into, if it wasn't 6am and we had just gotten off a plane!

The Crown & Cushion served Bass beers, and Lord knows, we love a good Bass ale!

From the Londonist website: (visit link)

"St Paddy’s day is on the horizon, and what better excuse than that to take a look at London’s best Irish pubs. While the below each have their own identity, qualities they all share include a feel-good atmosphere, character by the bag load and a tendency to pour a bloody excellent Guinness. Note that our recommendations are based on ‘normal day’ visits, not the bashes they throw on St Patrick’s Day in particular.

Crown & Cushion, Lambeth

Just a stone’s throw from Lambeth North station, the Crown & Cushion serves impeccable Guinness, Tayto crisps and that other Irish pub staple — Thai food. An open fire creates an affectionately smokey setting (even in summer) while Irish street signs and the more tasteful end of leprechaun imagery line the walls. There’s a small beer garden out back, too.
Crown & Cushion, 133-135 Westminster Bridge Road, SE1 7HR"

Interesting area, and resident locals said the best place around to watch football (by which they meant SOCCER - although they didn't know it) LOL
