Distinctively individual and authentic, ‘Castle Pubs’ are an original collection of fantastic pubs that sit within Mitchells & Butlers City division. Our locally iconic pubs ooze original character and personality to suit the community they are at the heart of. We attract regulars as diverse and discerning as our beers on tap.
This district takes in some of the most beautiful and exciting locations in South London (Greenwich, Wanstead, Herne Hill, Putney, Dulwich, Black heath, Crystal Palace, Denmark Hill and Borough market). It boasts landmark London Pubs, like the Thames-side ‘Gipsy Moth’ overlooking the ‘Cutty Sark’ in Maritime Greenwich to ‘The Southwark Tavern’ nestled next to London’s buzzing Borough Market.
Working for Castle pubs- you truly get the best of both worlds as an Area Manager; We operate with entrepreneurial freedom & independent pub feel, whilst benefitting from the amazing central support & fantastic career development opportunities.
From the best locally distilled artisan spirits to delicious untapped wines, top and tailed with an industry leading rotating craft beer range we're very picky about what makes it into our pubs- it matters to our guests, so it matters to us. We like to be different, quirky- ahead of the game.
Food menus are based on fresh, seasonal pub dishes and carefully sourced ingredients to cater for our discerning guests. From Brighton to Newcastle our General managers and teams makes us what we are, and because no two pub teams are the same, no two pubs are! Come and be part of something really original.
