A Gastropub to please craft beer lovers and foodies
Both menus at the Londoner are rather large –
The drinks menu has a variety of beers, including the 2 beers brewed in the building next door, a pilsner and a British style IPA. From beer, the drinks menu moves a couple of pages of whiskey: Scottish single malts, American whisky, and Asian bottles from Japan and Taiwan. The menu then moves to cocktails, smoothies, and wines. The last page also includes cigars for those that might enjoy partaking on the patio.
The food menu provides pictures of the variety of foods that make it a gastro-pub. On top of usual pub favorites, there is also lamb shanks, British roast options, and even pizza from next door. As an indicator to the family-friendly feel, the menu offers a kids menu, as well as an infants menu.
Getting to the Londoner brewpub:
From the BTS (Skytrain) station Phaya Thai, take exit 5 to get on the airport rail line, and get a ticket to hop off at Ramkhamhaeng station. You can then take a half hour walk, or bus or taxi to The Londoner.
The brewery for the Londoner is located right next door, with only an alleyway separating the pub and the brewery. If visiting you will probably see the facilities on your way to use the facilities. The General Manager Dan told me
