Redemption Pale Ale - Tottenham

Just wanted to take the time to say a massive thank you to Andy at Redemption Brewery in Tottenham.

Not only is he a first class beer brewer - we have his fabulous Pale Ale on at the moment & hope to have it as a permanent draft here at the Despard; he has been a real help to us here over the last few months.

I know of no other brewer that could furnish us with top notch ale on the shortest of notice on a Sunday morning!

Customer service above & beyond!

Sincere thanks from us lot @ the Despard.

QUIZ NIGHT - HEROES & VILLAINS

Hey there lovely peeps....

'Tis my solemn duty to inform you that Quiz Night is once again on the horizon!

Another goodie for you (although I do say so myself)....

...this week is all about pitting the good guys against the bad, the devils vs. angels, heroes vs. villains....

I think you catch my drift!

Think gangster movies, ancient stuff, politics, you name it! You know the Despard Quiz by now - we have a title, but we can still tangent!

Hope to see you all for another corker of a night - usual start time of 9.30pm.....

PS.... feel free to indulge any fancy dress inclinations -

 I'm thinking it would be quite surreal & amusing to see the pub, on a (probably rainy) Tuesday night peopled with gangsters & molls, Achilles, Tony Blair.....

See you there.. we may even have some nice prizes... X

Listen up people - Johnathan (from behind the bar) and Robbies radio show


2 hours of chuckles and choonz
worth checking every week - laters

QUIZ NIGHT - COWBOYS & INJUNS

Theme has been decided for next week's quiz - Tuesday 8th February - it's going to be all about The Wild West.

Am trying to be organised & I've actually started it already - can't be doing with the whole last minute, still typing the final questions whilst Round One has already begun!

If we have the time, we'll try and dress the pub like a saloon bar & who knows, maybe we'll get Jamie dressed as a saloon gal!
