About Plum Tree
Several doors down from the long established Star pub in the area known locally as "Birds Nest Hollow", this shop conversion micropub and bottle shop opened on Friday 19th July 2019. It was most recently a roofing supplies shop. Real ales and ciders/perries are sold on gravity dispense from a temperature controlled cellar room. In addition there are 7 keg taps on the back wall behind the bar counter. Wall bench seats and high and low matching tables are the order of the day here. People with restricted mobility may like to note that there is a small step up at the front door but there is a deeper additional step to the non-compliant toilets. Card payments accepted. Initially 5 cask ales were sold but this has since settled down to be 3 cask ales.
Any short notice changes to opening hours are studiously advertised on the pub's Facebook page.

A welcome new addition to Plumstead! Decent range of sandwiches and cakes, with vegan options and reasonably priced. A nice outdoor seating area at the back too. Will be back for more 🥪

Great addition to Plumstead Common. Nice toasties, good coffee and friendly staff. There’s also a bright outdoor seating out the back. Run by the same people behind the Plum Tree craft ale micropub next door.

Lovely, fresh and tasty sandwiches. Exactly what you need for a quick and local lunch. Delicious kimchi toastie. Plus once it drifts past 3pm you can pop next door for a pretty stunning beer.

Had the brie and ham toasted sandwich in ciabatta. It had a beautiful crunch, the chilli jam added a lovely kick.
