Part of the Jack Beards group, this pub has had a running succession of managers who don't stick around that long. Popped in there this week and there is a new manager who's been in the trade for years and seems to know his stuff, already stopping the freeloader's on match days by charging on the door with redeemable bar tokens, this has stoped all the crap from getting in. I understand from talking to him the kitchen will be up and running soon with food available. I know he has plans to launch regular entertainment, quiz's, Karaoke, caberet acts etc. A good eastend boozer with great beer and real ale comming soon!, friendly, if not loud on Arsenal match days, well worth a visit and definatley one to watch.

proper local. Jolly fish seller calls in (be wary of roll-mops). Avoid if Tottenham fan

Dependable pub close to the station on the main drag.

Good pub, has heaps of potential, needs a good coat of paint and interior redone, including the toilets - they are terrible! Barstaff are excellent and has a good local feel about it. Beer is nice too. Theres not really any other pub around so after a good polish and a good chef, the place would be a gold mine!!

New management in the last week or so. Beers now drinkable after a good line clean and the place is starting to look less dirty. A good mixed crowd with a real locals feel.

An okayish boozer, probably best avoided on a friday or saturday night when it's either karoake, or they have an act on, usually a male/femal combo playing the latest hits..
good football pub though, very much an arsenal pub...reasonably priced food, fair selection af ales and good proces. A real local pub, serves the people of clapton, which in that part of it, is woefully lacking in pubs.
