Craft beer, cocktails & burgers on the Bermondsey beer mile

About us

The Barrel Project is London Beer Factory's taproom, nestled under a Victorian rail arch on the iconic Bermondsey Beer Mile. Inside, nearly 200 reconditioned oak Bordeaux wine barrels line the walls. Born from inspirational visits to the Lambic Breweries of Belgium and the beautiful wineries of Bordeaux — The Barrel Project is undoubtedly one of the most atmospheric places to drink in South London. Across 24 taps you'll find an extensive range of LBF beers, plus a carefully curated line up of guest breweries with a focus on sour beer. If beer is not your thing a wide range of cocktails is on offer and an in-house kitchen serving some of the best burgers in town, plus Maltby Street Market right on the doorstep — there's always a reason to visit. Pull up a stool. The beer's ready when you are.
