The Hand in Hand, Brixton

The Hand in Hand offers a warm welcome as well as a good selection of ales, fine wines and beer.

The Hand in Hand is situated on a quiet back street on Brixton Hill, a mere 10 minute walk from the hustle and bustle of Brixton High street and a further 10 minute tube ride to the centre of London. Dating back to the 1800’s it offers a warm welcome as well as a good selection of ales, fine wines and beer. We pride ourselves on our traditional pub atmosphere as well as becoming one Brixton’s celebrated venues for emerging and established bands.
