"mcnulty" on 27 April 2009 is clearly a ringer by an interested party.
Come on, no one writes like that.
Hidden profile, joined on the day of the one post...all the clues are there.
How come these cheats never learn to do it properly?
What kind of person/company does that anyway?
The kind that doesn't deserve any custom?

This is a large pub right on the edge of Victoria Park – so the pub’s name is wholly accurate. Inside it’s bare-boarded, high-ceilinged with heavy scrubbed wood furniture. The music was unbearably loud, though one of the bar staff turned it down while I was at the bar getting a drink. Outside there is a large patio looking out over the park, which must be an absolute winner on a warm summer weekend. It was pretty empty on the Wednesday afternoon I was in there but I bet it must be heaving on a warm evening.

The had Fuller’s ales, plus Gales HSB and Adnam’s bitter. As you would expect in a pub like this, it’s not cheap. The menu consisted of “designer food”. I went for the smoked chicken and avocado sandwich, which came with a few chips. There were enough chips, not a great deal of chicken, but the crusty bread was delicious. Not cheap at £7.50. I don’t think that this is the sort of pub you go to for a family meal (the menu wouldn’t suit children) or a quiet pint, but for meeting chums and especially when the weather is nice and you can sit outside.

Lovely location in a quite upmarket and 'arty' part of Hackney. Very friendly staff. Recommended if you're in the area.

A great pub in a fantastic location - been going here for a number of years.

Food has always been good, jukebox is fantastic, beer is nice, staff often polite, garden is big, crowd is cool in a knowing way.

Gents are proper ming, but who really cares?

.....only downside is drains in the area can stink like death in the summer, and can sometimes get quite busy. (the pub, not the drains)

This is my local pub - its one of many in the area but the one that I always go back to. Whether its for a good catch up session in a corner with a mate, a quick pint after work or a for a sunday roast I think its great. I've never had any problems with the service and all the bar staff are very nice. Theres a great jukebox and once when I didnt have the correct change the manager put in 2 quid for me so I could play some tunes. All in all a great pub.
