| Absolutely pouring rain and on our way to Rough Trade records was looking forward to a pint and a chance to dry out. Very local place - nice service and enjoyed a pint of Doom Bar and the post-Chrismas shopping conversation. Yet another place this American would love to spend more time to get to know the regulars and sample some of the food. NM_Ale_Drinker - 9 Jan 2010 17:58 |
| Will concur with previous users, this is an excellent little pub and stands out in an area which is largely void of decent establishments. Last visit was on Sunday after following the wife round the local markets and enjoying a decent curry down the Lane. There was a lively post-market goers crowd in, and the Brewers Gold was superb. Caught the end of the football, for which there is a pull down screen for the ceiling projector, which goes back up as soon as the final whistle goes. And if Spurs had managed to hold onto a two goal lead it would have been a perfect day. Gann - 8 Dec 2009 14:03 |
| This pub is just off Brick Lane - an area of London I normally avoid because basically it manages to be both grubby and tacky. The pub itself is tiny - an L shaped room with the bar tucked neatly in the corner and the food counter - "Mary's Pantry" at the far end. The decor and clientele are most definitely old style East End boozer as is the great value for money menu. Nothing more than £3.50 and old style pub classics like Sausge Chips and Beans or Steak and Kidney Pud. Sandwiches start from £1.30 which in this day and age is nothing short of amazing. Pride, ESB, Doom Bar and Brewers Gold on tap means the pub also has something to offer the ale drinker. Not sure how long it will survive given the area it's in but this place really is a classic and anyone who appreciate traditional pubs should make an effort to visit. murgatroyd - 4 Dec 2009 01:59 |
| Lovely little unspoilt pub, as previous posters have commented it feels almost like sitting in someone's front room. My Brewer's Gold and ESB were both on fine form and the service was quick and friendly. Unfortunately the clientele on the (Thursday) night we went seemed to consist mostly of baying Shoreditch media-darlings, rather than the Wenlocky mixture of locals and ale-tourists I was expecting. The loud piped music (why??) wasn't helping either, my wife and I had to shout at each other rather than talk, so we ended up leaving after 2 pints. Lovely pub, shame about the clientele and the music. mannyowar - 27 Nov 2009 11:30 |
| Whilst compliments about this pub are deserved given the experiences of friends recently, the previous poster has used a false BITE ID in an attempt to associate me with his comments. I have now left a disclaimer on my BITE profile and will continue to track the account set up under "Newton_Lad". I hereby disassociate myself with any reviews left under this user profile, and the incident has been reported. I only post reviews about pubs that I have visited in person. I have NOT visited this pub since May 2007, and will comment fairly on my findings on my next trip. lad_newton - 16 Nov 2009 10:50 |
