"The atmosphere is great, due to the clientele and the interesting decor!"
"Great atmosphere, so many beer options! Would gladly come here again - great place to take a date or to hang with friends."
"A spectacular atmosphere on a nightly basis."
"The atmosphere in here was really nice in a way I'm not sure I've experienced before in a darkened pub."
Cons:
"In the evening it gets really loud in there, so probably not a good place to go for an intimate chat/catch up/ or date."
"Very noisy on a Friday evening so if you want to have a calm chat then this is not the place to be."
"It can get very busy so I stay away on Thursday's and Friday's."
"The downside which was the reason for my group leaving after 1 drink was the awful sound system."
"The only negative thing is that the place can get too loud."
"Like most pubs around Shoreditch/Bethnal Green it's crazy busy at the end of the week."
"It's quite noisy, a fact not helped by its location on a busy street."
Food and Drink
Pros:
"Good pub food, the burger and halloumi fries are really good."
"The prawns were exceptional because they came with that garlic aioli sauce which was surprising great and ended up ordering more after."
"The food here is outrageously well priced for how tasty it is. I had the lobster roll and fries, it was honestly one of the nicest things I've ever eaten."
"The fish and chips was great."
"Food was good, especially the oysters and sweet potato fries!"
"We had Aperol, fish&chips and a Caesar salad which were all delicious."
"The Dr Pepper brisket, grain mustard remoulade and chipotle and BBQ aubergine with pistachio lemon 'slaw were both excellent."
Cons:
"New menu is nothing special and can be found anywhere - burgers etc. Bring back the old menu!"
"Our whole group left after dinner still hungry, but with a big hole in the wallet."
"The halloumi fries were a rip off, super expensive and not home made."
"Change of owner, menu and staff and unfortunately it has totally gone downhill."
"But don't eat here - food portions are very small and overpriced."
"The roast was dry, cabbage undercooked, and the root vegetables resembled something akin to baby food."
"The food was not good."
Value and Pricing
Pros:
"Very affordable for the area with an incredible beer selection."
"Reasonable prices!"
"The craft beer selection is really good and at a very fair price."
"A perfect venue for card heavy punters to swipe away and do some serious drinking. Reasonably priced drinks."
"Prices are good and staff were smiling and actually looked like they enjoyed being there."
Cons:
"The lack of happy hour or 'offers' make it an expensive Friday night, but worth it."
"We were all overcharged on our drinks, the worst being a bottle of wine where we were charged £37.90 instead of the advertised £30."
"£400 for a poor experience and they had the temerity to add 12.5% for non existent service."
"Let down slightly by the prices, in particular the beer - make sure you check the menu instead of just ordering from looking at the taps otherwise you can end up paying £8 for a pint."
"Good beer too but watch out for the really expensive one on the end (they should say before you order it)."
"Prices high but it's London prices after all."
"Overpriced, mediocre food with all the favourite dishes (crab fries, lobster rolls) now taken off the menu."
