An absolute gem! A very professional staff. A great selection of drinks, including Belgian fruit beers. Flossie and her husband have turned a complete dive into something that would not look out of place in Clapham or Hampstead. Very, very busy on weekend evenings and Sunday afternoons - but also with a large-ish garden.

We'll start with the bad points:
£3.30 for a Becks Vier for example. £3.30!!!
Incredibly large number of anti-children signs despite large amount of outside space at this pub.
I say again it's bizarrely expensive.
Good points:
Good range of ales though I can't vouch for quality of all of them.
Lots of outside space including very sunny forecourt.

Ignore the tablecloths! This place is a great pub. I'm maybe biased as I helped write the beer and wine list.. Thankfully they've kept then Broadside on tap if not the other beers I recommended. Flossie and co have done a great job and the place is usually packed to the rafters.

Coppermill pub is great too, if only for the lovely beer.

This is certainly a divisive pub. Love it or hate it, it seems.

Based on the vitriol thrown at the clientele on this board one has to be grateful they don’t come here, as I can’t imagine them being at all pleasant people. If I understand correctly, middle class people aren’t allowed to drink in pubs. BITE isn’t the right place for scarcely disguised inverse snobbery, even if its caused by an inferiority complex. There’s a few bad pubs in Walthamstow where the problems go far beyond the tablecloth choice and who are far more worthy of criticism.

I don’t live near enough for this to be a regular haunt but have been around 10 times. On each visit I’ve personally never had a problem. Judging objectively, staff have been fine, beer very good and clientele pleasant – even had a chat with the landlord and had no problems there either. Then again, I like the Village, Plough, Queen’s Arms Coppermill and the Victoria – something to do with live and let live, I suppose.

Sorry, I'm sticking with the fat plumbers. If I wanted a 'trendy' pub I would've moved to Clapham.
