Prepare to be Amazed: Big Penny Social is Walthamstow's Wonderland! Tucked away like a well-kept secret off a quiet back street in Walthamstow, Big Penny Social is an absolute revelation. From the unassuming entrance, you'd never guess the sheer scale and vibrant energy that lies within. Stepping inside is like Alice tumbling down the rabbit hole – you're instantly transported into a vast, open space buzzing with trendy folks, multiple inviting bars, and enticing little eateries dotted around. The atmosphere is electric and effortlessly cool. But hold on, there's more! Push through another door and BAM! You're in an entirely different massive room, the air thrumming with the energy of live music and DJs. The transitions between these spaces are seamless yet distinct, creating a real sense of discovery as you explore. And then, just when you think you've seen it all, you stumble upon the courtyard garden. Even on a regular day, it's a lovely outdoor space, but I hear whispers that it magically transforms into a beach during the summer months! A beach in Walthamstow? Seriously, this place is operating on another level. What truly makes Big Penny Social special is its incredible vibe. It attracts a genuinely mixed age group, creating a lively and inclusive atmosphere where everyone seems to be having a fantastic time. And to top it all off, the drinks are surprisingly reasonably priced for such a unique and impressive venue. Forget your preconceived notions of a local pub; Big Penny Social is an experience. It's a hidden gem that deserves to be shouted about. If you're in Walthamstow, or even if you're not, make the journey. You won't believe your eyes, and you certainly won't be disappointed. This place is truly out of this world!

We just love coming to Big Penny, although our visits are only a few every year as we travel from Lincoln to see the Basement Orchestra whenever they play there. The atmosphere is extraordinary, relaxed, noisy and friendly with kids welcome to run around and play. The food is great - I always have the steak bavette. It is really something to look forward to. The beers are well kept. I go for the IPA, which is quite strong and robust.
