An ok pub, unfortunately only had sambrooks beers on yesterday which are not my favourites.But as pubs go it wasn't bad and would visit again

Good range of well kept ales and what looked like good food in this welcoming pub. Lots of exposed dark wood. Traditional pub menu including a choise of various pies with mash and veg. As previously mentioned the background music was Trojan ska which suited me fine - maybe it's a ginger thing. :o)

to quote ginger_beard:

'What a great atmosphere, very relaxing - couples chatting, locals reading the Guardian, soft reggae music in the background before a pianist and singer beautifully performed a few easy listening classics. The Adnams Broadside was delicious. Will be going back very soon....'

popular and decent real ale pub - bit pricey for the area though

definately one of my favourite pubs in east london, simply for the Paulaner weiss they have on, although at £4+ a pop, cant afford to have too many. defo seem like west london prices but the pies are top drawer and the staff and punters make for a good vibe.
