With its quirky, brown-tiled façade and enviable rooftop terrace, this pub has long been a local landmark in London’s East End. The wood-panelled bar retains the feel of a traditional boozer, while the first-floor dining room is a little more modern yet still hearteningly unpretentious. The owners are alumni of St. JOHN, meaning there’s a similarly no-nonsense and proudly British approach to the cooking, where the seasonality and quality of the produce is key. So expect the likes of dressed Dorset crab and a traditional Sunday roast.
