New Micro Brewery
I was wondering if you've heard anything about a new bar/micro-brewery that's being planned for Cutty Sark Gardens? I noticed a planning application sign when I was out the other day and found the details on the council website (http://tinyurl.com/3bldjs).
Number 2 is the building next to the tourist office, opposite the Cutty Sark.
It'll probably end up being another Greenwich Inc. place but there's always the slim chance that we might be getting a new bar with some decent ales!
The Phantom is intrigued. From the application it would seem that the building is the old brewery of the Royal Naval College - being turned back into one. I like to hope that we'll have some variety in the ownership of things in central Greenwich - maybe The ORNC will run it themselves (preferably not Leiths - they seem to make everything so corporate and - well - 'catering' ) - and I certainly hope you're not right and it's Greenwich Inc, but any interesting independent will do me. I guess we'll just have to find out. They should ahve a ready supply of custom with all those students...
Anyone got any more news on this?

they've found a whole lot underground- its very interesting
Aw c'mon, Anon - you can't leave it like that! WHAT have they found?
I am now desperate to know...
an underground chamber and a well - details will appear in a local history newsletter soon ......
Oooh - you tease!
It is going to be an independent brewery and not a Frank the ..... venue. It will have some brewing on site and great beers. Can't wait.
Sounds good
Fantastic. As a real ale lover and CAMRA member I'm very pleased!
I talked to one of the thames clippers guys. Apparently it will be a two-storey restaurant where the old little ice cream huts on the pier were, with panorama windows to watch the river.
Apparently his brother-in-law (or something) will be working there as a chef.
If it's the same thing you mean?

I think you might be confusing it with this:

I believe the brewery is separate.
GG (aka Anonymous!)
Hooray for independent Beer!!!!
Another independent brewery in Greenwich! Hoorah!!
I am absolutely DYING to know more! And can't find news at all by googling...
Half Nelson and GG - can you tell us more? Who will be running it? What do they have planned?
Full story in next week's The Peninsula.
