O'Neills, Beckenham  

If you're being kind, you could say O'Neils offer safe drinking experiences to punters in unfamiliar territory. We prefer to look upon them as shining beacons of averageness. As you'd expect, all the standard trappings are in place in the Beckenham branch - the trademark interior, the "That's What I Call Eire" Rock soundtrack and the usual food and drink. Points in its favour: late licence Thurs - Sat. Oh, and the seats at the side of the pub that catch the sun.
