user reviews of the Dukes Head, Walthamstow

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

A desperate excuse for a pub. Crap beer, sullen service and better when virtually empty because, by Chr!st you dont want to be in there when its full.

Been there 2.5 times. Its local but the best thing about it is that it keeps the dregs out of the Flower Pot & the Plough

Christ, give me strength! My review was 18 months ago. If it has changed for the better then so be it but I would hazard a guess that the addition of a pint of Bass and something to mask the smell would make this a 10/10'er. Are you really putting this place on a par with the greatest pubs in the country? I would suggest you need to venture out a bit before you start having a pop at people who have reviewed hundreds of pubs on this site over many years. At least I have noticed that I never gave the place an actual rating. 3/10 is generous from my memories but should cover things. Thanks for drawing the place back to my attention again.

I think Roger B has not a clue about pubs because the dukes head is the best pub around walthamstow it's clean & tidy.Good choice of beers & real ale (bass) very nice pint, nice & frenidly bar staff.I came here with my mates for the live bands & disco nites and it is a fantastic nite out.If you like sports came to this pub because it's got 7 big tv's. 10 out of 10

Now to be Fair this pub rates well when Expose (live band) play here on a friday, good atmosphere and usually a good nite out. Pool table and live tv are also a plus and drinks have been ok. Service a little slow sometimes. Holds some good memories for me.

go here if you are keen on being beaten by p*ssed oiks with pool cues. Its the worst pub in London in my book and I have been to a few shiteholes. Run by people you imagine would dump mattresses by roadsides and tarmac your drives badly. Frequented by the absolute filth of the area. Sorry to sound harsh but the quicker this place is demolished the better.

I was hardly in here long enough to write a realistic review but unfortunatley the stench from something resembling toilet cleaner was so overwhelming we didn't stay long enough even to get a pint in. It doesn't look like we missed much. A rather bland, soulless and featureless interior. No ales. Nothing particularly inviting at all. On the plus side they have occasional live music and a few screens to watch footie but there are far better pubs in the locality should we ever find ourselves with time to kill.
