Big garden. Great food. Brilliant location. Your next pub?

Sitting right on the corner of Peckham Rye Park, The Angel Oak is a pub with a lot going for it — and we're looking for an experienced General Manager to take the lead.

This is a busy, food-led pub with real personality, attracting guests from across Peckham and East Dulwich. There's a strong seasonal food offer, proper Sunday roasts, live sport and, importantly, a huge year-round beer garden that really comes into its own when the sun comes out.

And summer at The Angel Oak is a different beast altogether.

With an outdoor kitchen firing up the BBQ and a dedicated garden bar, there is a huge opportunity for the right General Manager to maximise one of the pub's biggest assets and create a brilliant outdoor experience.

You'll have real ownership of the business, from developing your people and driving standards to making the most of the garden, food, sport and events to grow sales.

Why The Angel Oak?

Because there's loads to work with.

You've got the location next to Peckham Rye Park, a strong local following, a serious food offer and an enormous garden that gives the pub another dimension throughout the year.

It's the kind of pub where an ambitious General Manager can bring ideas, build a great team and genuinely make their mark.
