Shaun Hill

One of the best pubs in London. Friendly service and so many different cask ales every week. Even play the twin peaks theme tune occasionally. Very underrated pub that deserves a visit!

Ed George

Best pub in the area with a good beer selection on cask & keg . The food from the recently revamped kitchen is well worth a try. Good roof terrace for when the weather is favourable.

Jessica

This place never disappoints. Friendly staff and great range of beers . Has a cute little roof terrace but gets pretty packed, so you'll be lucky to get a seat.

Kim Pham

Low-key one of the best pubs in the area. The true hidden gem is the rooftop beer garden . Perfect for a lazy summer Sunday!

Little Scrapes

Rotating selection of fart inducing crafty beers . Far less ambitious wine list 😒 Has an often forgotten about bonus roof terrace . Occasional fruit fly infestations and/or bleach aroma.

Melissa Mawby

Great rooftop bar with heated lamps and lots of seating! Just go through the dark door in the back. Also, the hipster bartender will give you a half pint of beer if you ask for a taste.

Nick Davis

Classic old pub with many unique beer selections . Gets crowded on Friday nights with the local after work crowd.

Brad Tubb

Never empty, but for good reason - this place has a great selection of craft beers and real ales , and the food looks pretty good too. If only there were free tables to eat it on!

Neil Pearson

The rooftop beer garden is a lovely hidden oasis of tranquility. Excellent craft beer selection , perfectly crispy chips and a salt beef sandwich of the highest standard.

James Brothers

Soon many great beers but also so busy! Food is good to especially the pulled pork or cheesy chips !

Dena Haghsay

I had the pork schnitzel and it was REALLY AWESOME. They have this beer called wise-beer I guess,and it really has a great taste and aroma

Amy Robinson

Great place for craft beer and food. Scotch eggs are delicious and they have a £10 meal with a drink lunch deal , Monday to Thursday.

Robert Shaw

My favourite pub in this part of town . Infallible selection of wonderful beers , well kept, great venue, rooftop garden if you're lucky.

Andrea Campi

Very pretty pub with tons of choice in terms of beers . Rooftop garden is very pleasant.

Zuz

Great hidden rooftop so close to Old st!

Phil Markham

Just to make clear - great pub though the OF is - it isn't in Hoxton. The parish of St Lukes still counts as Clerkenwell (was in the old borough of Finsbury NOT Shoreditch )

David Baker

Amazing selection of cask and keg ales . Really good food as well . Roof terrace perfect in the summer

Sunday roast is amazing! Highly recommended.

Calm and relaxed pub in the heart of Shoreditch .

New carpet. Coat of paint. It's no upmarket swanky joint but by gosh, it's quality craft beer and it still feels like a boozer .
