Originally called the Railway Hotel (it's opposite the station) it became Bradys in 1991. Famous for being a spit and sawdust late night music and drinking venue, seeing bands and DJ's alike doing their stuff until the early hours mainly at weekends, but not unheard of to give it a twist on a school night too.
It's rumoured that Jimi Hendrix used to jam here after playing Gigs in town, even I'm too young to confirm this, but I certainly used to see Brixton band the Alabama3 play here regularly in the early 90's.
As with many places with character in Brixton it closed down, got squatted, had a short lived revival before sadly being closed down again. It sits on the corner of Electric lane and Atlantic Road looking rather dishevelled and sad, but by many, never forgotten for the great place it once was.
