The Blind Beggar

Banger Bros "Famous HotDogs & Real Burgers " are now being served from our new kitchen. Order at the bar , collect at the kitchen (at the end of the bar ). From 11am everyday.

Awesome beer garden in Mile End. Artificial waterfalls and asortic bubble aquarium here in garden will fourish yer eyes. However, ale is ok.

Alex Blogu

Cueing at the till with the taps is for suckers, stay on the other side of the bar . Beggar's belief is one watery ale , avoid. Awesome beer garden

Emily-jane

Standard east London pub - ok beer selection - really chilled - pool table - pub cat :) - big garden out the back!

Sean Healy

Decent pub , a good sized garden and as unpretentious as can be expected (but not enough so to see the next Ron and Reg propping up the bar ...)

Simon Hardy

Just wanted to revisit the gents loos comments... They were totally done up a couple of months ago and are now some of the finest in the area ;)

Nick Davis

Obviously a famous location. Big pub with the basics. Nice projector for match day.

Xin Rogo

Beggar's belief is a bugger.. Too weak unfortunately.. Great drink for those not so into their beers from the Mediterranean region ;)

Joseff Thomas

Spacious pub with decent pool table ! Drink selection was fairly dismal, 50p card charge if under £10!

Giacomo Mason

Beer garden is pretty nice, and it has a pool table . But both ales and whiskeys have poor selection

Matt Barber

Not such a good beer selection but hot dogs are wicked. Chips and onion rings also decent.

Sascia Virruso

Great beers and amazing location and atmosphere.

Μαίρη Μαντζίρη

Nice neighborhood pub with a lovely garden

Neelesh Sonawane

The men's away from the pool table is an experience I can only imagine to be the opposite experience to walking into the tardis.

Maxime Rinen

One great hidden terrace ! And friendly staff !

Lee Dunning

Great staff and beer garden . This is my local and I love it

Wilson Page

Poor beer selection , nothing local, just standard mainstream lagers . We ordered two Heineken and a Peroni, all were served in Coors Light glasses. Bizarre garden , carp pond , bubbles and buddhas.

Richard Common

£4 for a pint of speckle hen. Seems decent inside and the beer garden is nice. Toilets are like the ones out of the film "trainspotting "

Conni Scarlett

Beer garden and open fires are the only thing good about this place now. Selection of beers is poor and the pop up burger restaurant is underwhelming.

Timucin Cakir

All staff are French and very rude!!! Rest is great!! Change Staff Please!!!

Michael Hodson

Smoking under heated lamps outside makes me happy.

Seamus McQuaid

The bar is nothing special but the beer garden is really pleasant

Milos Gajdos

Hot dogs in beer garden = win-win!

Simon Hardy

Can happily say the mans has been redone and looks a world better!

Dave Orr

Ripped out the original inside now looks like a generic bar

Bram Castell

If you're deathly allergic to cats, pop a Benadryl before coming here.

Katja

Nice beer garden

Pablo Suárez

Amazing beer garden !!

George Johnson

On the pricey side - but to be expected in the middle of The Ripper Trail

Londonist

Gentlemen of a hygienic persuasion might want to avoid the toilet . Great pool table , though.

Seamus Clancy

Check out the size of them gold fish :)

£4 a pint of lager !

Poor service, bad room layout, extremely slow food and horrible toilets (reminded me of Trainspotting 's...). Not a great place.

Meli H

£4.80 for a bottle of Crabbies!!! Ouch!
