My local and therefore my favourite. Always a bit too crowded but lovely, especially on calmer weekday evenings. Nice terrace at the back and good food selection, too.

Carl Griffin

Used for exterior shots for 90s comedy 'Goodnight Sweetheart'. Bright and airy interior. Great real ales .

Laura Rayner

Love this pub , especially in the winter when they do hot cider and mulled wine . Teamed with a browse through the pretty shops on Columbia Road it's always a winner of a day.

Avril Turner Duffy

Lovely pub , great atmosphere, not too expensive for pints. Staff friendly , we had a laugh with Warren and the John Snow lookalike working behind the bar . We will be back.

Bustling pub where you’d catch a glimpse of Alexa Chung or the chap from Arctic Monkeys. Cozy in winter and perfectly placed for post flower-market pint & plate. Mushroom gnocchi is small but sublime.

Alexandros Plexidas

English pub with character in Columbia street. Despite the typical options to have a drink, it has decent options if you're looking for dinner . Nice garden in the back.

Martin Tiedemann

18 November: One of East London's prettiest pubs , situated on a beautiful street that survived the bombs which destroyed huge sectors of the surrounding area. Used as a location by film and TV crews.

Jamie Campbell

Quality pub with a cheeky courtyard . The rosé is ????

tom andrews

Campania and their Daily specials is the best three courses of authentic southern Italian cuisine for a mere tenner at lunch with an unaffected deli charm I've yet found anywhere in London.

Aaron

Nice beers , but drop the £0.50 card fee in an age where we're all paying by card. (Your 'fee' sure isn't £0.50 on a £4 pint!)

Sunday lunch here is fab. Come straight in off the street of flower selling madness (fun in its own way though). Slow and civilised meal, but always busy. Good hipster watching! Read more

Great pub with a nice beer garden . Spot the ghost painting across the toilet .

Gus Ferguson

Love this pub ... Great ambiance, friendly locals

Heli Heartland

Best pub burger in yonks! Lovely pub .

George Johnson

In the middle of Columbia Road Flower Market - looks like its the only watering hole round here - gets very busy on market day

Andrew Tibbitts

Sunday Rib roast is incredible. How do they make the spuds this crispy ?

Luke Stanley

Cosy pub , cramped when it’s busy

Roy

It's hard to describe JUST how tasty the chips are.

Roy

You're high if you don't order their chunky chips with aioli . High.

hello_emily

Very good kedgeree scotch egg ???? ????

Giac_Man

Really nice pub but I've been here on Sunday for the first time and I have to say the roast pork was not very good. Not up to my expectations and definitely overpriced

Jarod McBride

The fish and chips were great!

Kim Pham

A Columbia Rd neighbourhood staple.

Chris Clarke

Great Saturday afternoon pub . Not a great selection of beers though.

Miguel Colmenares

lovely sunday roast with a great vibe

Adam Fowles

Get the Pork belly it's incredible

Joshua

Lovely Sunday roast ! Waited for a while though...

Gianpiero Puleo

They have three mains, and even though we were the only take in the restaurant they ran out of one of them. The rest of the food was good but overpriced.

Ciaraleaf Meaney

Try and sit at the bar , best atmosphere

Wesley Verhoeve

Amazing food, slightly pricey .

Matt Bochenski

The guinea fowl is excellent.

Beliebter Pub für den typischen Sunday Roast , kann man gut mit einem Spaziergang über den berühmten Columbia Road Flower Market verbinden der jeden Sonntag stattfindet

Lapo Agostini
