About The Rosy Hue

Sitting on the corner of the two-acre Elephant Park development in Elephant & Castle, The Rosy Hue is a classic neighbourhood pub, serving up delicious food all day alongside drinks and seasonal cocktails from local breweries and distilleries.

The site is inspired by the rich history of the area and its 19th century Penny Gaff dancing halls, with the name inspired by the rosy glow that appears on the cheeks of those who frequented there.

The front of the pub is a social space for dining and drinking, whilst behind the arch you will find the perfect viewing for sports, live music and pub quizzes. Our urban garden is heated and protected from the elements, whilst the venue is strictly dog friendly!
