About

Standing on the summit of Blackheath since 1924, the Blackheath Tea Hut is a beloved local landmark and one of London's last true roadside tea huts.

This pastel blue kiosk serves up tea, coffee, bacon baps, burgers and hot food throughout the day, with the legendary quarter pounder with pineapple a firm favourite among regulars. The hut is a gathering point for bikers, taxi drivers, NHS workers and joggers alike — a place where everyone looks out for each other and instant camaraderie is guaranteed.

The hut is dog-friendly with outdoor seating and specially drilled cup holders in the tables to stop your tea from blowing away. It's affordable, unpretentious and perfectly tailored to its clientele — you won't find crushed avocado here, but you will find a warm welcome and a strong cuppa.

A Survivor of the Heath

In January 2020, the original hut was destroyed in a car accident. Thanks to a community Crowdfunder and the determination of its loyal patrons, the tea hut reopened and continues to serve the community that has kept it alive for over a century.

Counting celebrities such as Jarvis Cocker and Jools Holland among its patrons, the Blackheath Tea Hut remains a beacon on the heath — calling all weary travellers to its counter.

## Woolwich Arsenal's much-loved local Perched on the riverside at the historic Royal Arsenal in Woolwich, The Dial Arch is a cracking Young's pub that has become a go-to destination for South-East Londoners seeking great food, fine ales and a warm welcome. Just a one-minute walk from Woolwich Elizabeth Line station and five minutes from the DLR, it's perfectly placed for a pint, a meal or a proper knees-up. ### Food & Drink The Dial Arch takes its food seriously. The kitchen team uses the best British ingredients to deliver nostalgic pub classics alongside phenomenal stone-baked pizzas and epic Sunday roasts that draw crowds from across SE London. Start the day with brunch and a cracking coffee, or settle in for a leisurely lunch. The bar keeps lovingly-kept real ales, super-sippable cocktails and a seasonal winter cocktail menu featuring delights like the Fig Negroni and Pomegranate Fizz. There's also a generous selection of alcohol-free serves. ### The Garden One of Woolwich's best pub gardens, the buzzing terrace is open all year round. Wrap up with a bottle of red and a blanket in the winter, or sip a thirst-quenching craft beer or frozen cocktail in the height of summer. It's dog-friendly too, so your four-legged friends are welcome. ### Sport & Events The Dial Arch is the place to catch all the action, from the Autumn Nations rugby series to Premier League fixtures, shown live on the big screen. The pub also hosts regular events and offers flexible private hire spaces for Christmas parties, celebrations and get-togethers, all within a minute's walk of Woolwich Arsenal station. ### A Word from the Team Mihai and his gem of a team look forward to welcoming you soon, whether it's for your first coffee of the day, a top-notch pub meal with a lovingly-kept real ale, or super-sippable cocktails after a hard day's work.
