The Waverley Arms is now up and running again after an extensive refurb and we'd just like to spread the word and say hello. Whilst I realise it aint exactly in ED, we're not far away either sitting on Ivydale Rd just at the top of Peckham Rye park.


We took over the pub in early February and after having invested our pennies into this formerly unloved boozer (not to mention plenty of blood sweat and tears), we finally reopened our doors at the end of July. We're new to the pub game having given up our sensible 9-5 day jobs but are loving every minute so far, especially as the initial reactions have been so nice and positive.


We've managed to wangle some great tasting local ales and beers out of Punch taverns, and have an interesting and very reasonably priced wine list that hopefully covers all the bases.


A new kitchen is coming this autumn (the pub has never had a trade kitchen), but in the meantime we're serving great summer grub off our massive outdoor BBQ and have plenty of fancy snacks to keep hunger at bay. Come autumn, we will be serving handmade stonebaked pizzas and hearty salads, and then plan to roll out top-notch burgers, daily specials and a Sunday roast a bit further down the line. The menu will be simple and use high quality ingredients, but The Waverley will be a pub that serves great food, rather than a restaurant pretending to be a pub.


After living in and around the area for the last few years, and having made The Waverley our family home, we really hope you will love the pub as much as we do. We'll be starting a pub quiz and Sunday night piano sing-a-longs, plus a few other events shortly. We're open to ideas and would really appreciate any feedback you'd like to give.


We have a large backroom that would make a great space for parties/functions etc, and during weekdays before 4pm the whole pub can be used privately for any community groups that might be interested.


Hope to see you soon for a drink and a chat.

An excellent addition to Nunhead, making it the new cool place to be. I've visited the pub 'before' and 'after' and can honestly say that I was amazed at the difference. All it takes is a bit of love, but Jonny and Katie must be oozing with it by the looks of things...
The people behind this charming and low key little place are good people. They have kept it's character and inside you can feel the history. I almost thought I could see dead people. Walking around like regular people. They serve a lovely pint of Dead Pony. And have a bbq in the eves and after 12 on weekends. Such a contrast to the other new refurb down the road which has been well and truly "clockhoused".

6 by 6* Jermey. Works a treat. Im happy to take you through it on Saturday. Keep you up to the required pace on the pint-ometer.


*6 pints by 6pm.

If I used that line I'd find myself on the end of a tirade about how there's too much to do for any feet upping.

    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge". 
    • Can’t imagine what it must be like you have your doorbell rung harshly.
    • Hi all, Wondering if anyone else in/around SE22 is also having the unfortunate luck of having Evri parcels delivered by a very rude individual? Whenever we have parcels delivered, our front gate is being slammed open and closed, ring doorbell is harshly banged (not pressed) followed by simultaneously banging on the door knocker and slamming the letter box multiple times. Someone is normally home by the time they come in the evening and never has to wait long for an answer. If we’re not home, we speak to them on the doorbell so we do find the actions of this individual unreasonable and rude.  We have tried a couple of times politely asking that they not do this but they are very dismissive and gives a passive-aggressive “have a nice day” reply.  Has anyone been able to contact Evri and successfully had any issues similar to this resolved? We have enough evidence through our doorbell footage but we are lost with what else we can do. We’ve tried asking politely but don’t want our gate or door damaged by someone who simply doesn’t care and lacks basic manners.    If anyone else is having this issue or has any advice on how we can report this, it would be much appreciated. After another dismissive reply to my concern this afternoon, I will be calling Evri tomorrow to raise a complaint. I have lost my patience with them
