Booked an outside table for my birthday on Saturday 16th August, myself and my guests had a fantastic time. Food was outstanding and the DJ's played great music all day and into the night. One of the best pubs in London in my opinion.

Recently taken over and refurbished but love the fact they've kept the feel of the old set up, wooden floors, loads of old pictures and mix and match old tables/chairs. Popped in for a drink and ended up staying for meal. Although a pub - you do get table service. It was Sunday evening and was so pleased that the roasts were still available. Very nice meal. Good service. Handy for us - can walk there or get a bus/tube to Leytonstone High Road from home
