| I had a really good lunch here last Sunday. i waddled out with my friends at about 7.30 after a long and boozy afternoon. The service was great, and the beer was fine. That garden is fantastic. Roll on the Summer. thomasbernard - 21 Feb 2008 19:38 |
| A hidden gem of a pub in the streets of Shoreditch near Spitalfields market, The Water Poet was an amazing find and one I'll contuinue to come back to. Not only did they serve food that was the best pub food I've tried in the area, but the huge interior just went on for ever! We started in the main bar, made our way past a separate pool room, through the rest of the pub past the eccentric decoration to the dining room. It was after eating that we found ourselves outide in an enormous garden which will be amazing in the Summer. Don't tell everyone. It can be our little secret!! merrygoround - 21 Feb 2008 17:24 |
| Not the most charming of pubs, the decor hasn't been refreshed in some years, but for the area this place is certainly one of the best. Do Landlord very well and comfy sofas. This is a place that has definitely benefitted from the smoking ban! Dan1976 - 11 Feb 2008 10:37 |
| This has all the makings of the perfect Sunday pub. Nice and cosy, loads of space, lovely food, football on the telly if you ask nicely and friendly staff. Not to mention the huge beer garden decked out with comfy chairs. The only place it falls flat is the beer. The IPA and Landlords were bloody awful - as was the Becks. I switched to the more expensive Hoegaarden in the end because it was the only one that tasted half decent. Lovely pub - but unless they sort their pints out I won't be becoming a regular anytime soon. MisterCreosote - 5 Feb 2008 12:21 |
| This pub looked better than it was. Only Landlord on tap, and that was not so good so ended up on the becks. It shut pretty early (23hrs) but the staff were turning on the bright lights and turning off the heaters by 2245hrs which was not very welcoming. I was there for a party, and the party food was delicious, especially the lamb chops. propertyking - 4 Feb 2008 10:55 |
