Spotted Dog in Barking and Dagenham

Didn't like it here.Seats were very hard and uncomfortable. A fly was with us the whole time.No food.Cold.

Good atmosphere and location just by the station. Lovely, efficient and multi tasking staff. A wide selection of beers spirits coctails and good food Overall great pub to enjoy with family and friends especially on Fridays and Saturdays with entertainment.

Amazing food and drinks. Good value for money. Customer service was top notch. Highly recommend.

Great London pub, friendly atmosphere, good type of noisey.

It's a lovely pub great vibes but when comes to the toilets they are 🤢 nasty stinks flys it's not good at all ... puts me off eating there

Nice, cozy place. Wide selection of beers on tap.

As a returning guest, I can say that it is one of the most atmospheric places in London. Great service, great beers, cloudless atmosphere. I can only recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic London pub.

Was discriminated because of my visual impairment at this pub. Disgusting.

Very dirty and poor service. Avoid if you can.

Unassuming little boozer on the main drag. Decent beer and spirits. Could get busy as there's little to complete.

Nice old fashioned pub next to Barking stn

Nice quiet pub next to barking station. Good service.

Friendly Staff at the heart of Barking.

Nice pub. Lovely atmosphere. Good service .

It's a nice pub. Great choice of drinks and great range of food. A very well done for introducing some special dishes such as MOMO and dried Meat. Unconventional to the pubs menu but really nice. Recommendable to everyone to try out....

Sign says home cooked food but we were flatly told they didn't serve food

Cheap drink, friendly enough service but we were really surprised at the food. It’s basic pub grub but they have street food and Indian food on there too. I wouldn’t say it’s 5star but it’s quite nice. Cocktails served warm which is a shame but maybe it was just a busy day. We went twice and would return

Pub was OK . Had to return a pint of Doombar as it was off but alternative offered with no quibbles. Food very cheap.

It's all about the atmosphere at the Barking Dog. Before you even step in, you'll be met by Charlie. He comes with the pub. Charlie is usually blasting unusually good dnb and pop on his speaker, and may offer to suck you off for a fiver. He's truly the heart of this establishment. Now the best area is of course the beer garden. The security tried to kick some guy out because he was slicing salami on a chopping board, until he was offered a piece. The salami was so good that the salami man was pardoned, now that security guard is truly the digestive system of this establishment. The salami was so damn good that the guard proceeded to lift the pub anvil. You should go to the beer garden just to try to lift the anvil, it's a tradition.

Nice pub polite staff bit on the expensive side

Not clean. Toilets not clean. Just needs a good clean. Food was nice . Good series.

Si estás en la zona de Barking es una buena opción para tomar pintas o comer. Esta situado junto a la estación de trenes, posee una gran terraza y tiene un buen ambiente. Debido a que el pub está dividido en dos, a veces los camareros al situarse al otro lado de la pared, no ven que hay clientes esperando, pero pese a ese pequeño defecto por lo demás es un buen sitio para beber.

Nice pub. Lovely atmosphere. Good service and a garden area.

Good friendly traditional local pub.

Quite a large pub but it lacked atmosphere although it was Mobday night to be fair. It may be worth another look on another day.

Used to be the best pub in barking, but now it’s full of bums, went in the other day for the final but left before the game even kicked off. Must be new owners because it wasn’t like this 10+ years ago.

Bit run down but service is good.

I give five stars here to the chef. We took a menu expecting tropical pub food (nothing wrong with that at all) and it had a lot of Indian dishes on it.. we tried them, they were great. Great naan and the jalfrezi was very tasty.

I like the vibe in this pub and the staff are always very good. However the gentleman's toilets are disgusting and I never see any of the staff regularly cleaning or checking them. On Saturday the 5th of November a discarded nappy was in the men's toilet all night on the floor, plus no toilet paper. Absolutely vile. Went in there this evening 29/04/23 and I noticed the beers had gone up in price by quite a lot. My partner said they went up a couple of weeks ago. £10.60 is way too much for two pints of Kronenberg. Time to leave this nice place and wait for cheaper beers when the spoon opens. Also the toilets are still disgusting so have taken it down a star. Great while it lasted.

Disappointed. No karaoke. Larger awful about 15 people in there, toilets dreadful. never again

Awful. Not many people there toilets awful. Pint larger awful

Classic East London pub near the Barking station. Tough working class blokes, okay beers, good Nepalese momos, which worth traveling from West London for.

Love this place. It's not the nicest part of London and there are very few pubs dotted about but you don't need any others because this is one of the best about. Good staff, really cheap pints for London and sport shown on multiple screens. Unpretentious, lots of locals here, good entertainment rooms for events etc and they do decent pub nights too. Just outside the station. Whenever in the area I'll pop in for a pint or two.

The manager is friendly and accommodating. We had a party held there for one of our client and the venue, service and food did not disappoint us. Good value for money. I'm so glad we had the party there. Thank you tother manager and staff. We have a lovely day.

Nice little boozer, friendly atmosphere

It was very nice experience, greetings from Slovakia :)

I have used this pub over the years, albeit every now and then. This used to be a somewhat conservative establishment that was renowned for being on the expensive side, despite being virtually next door to a large Wetherspoons. However, it has been under new ownership for the past couple of years and has changed considerably. Prices have been reduced to a sensible level, food is more readily available and the staff seem pleasant, as does the clientele. I particularly like the ''Sea Fury'' real ale they serve and will continue to use this watering hole whenever I am in the Barking vicinity.

Really good atmosphere, and great range of beers.

Typical boozer. Does the job. Close to the station also

Good service, prices and nice atmosphere

Pub inglés, típica. La atención es buena y rápida. Buenos precios.

2 men serving at bar ordered drinks,not welcoming atmosphere ,paid for drinks,no manners! Rude ,abrupt,arrogant ,spend your money elsewhere

Nice pub Shame about Mo He’s a right bellend ✊💦 Picks & chooses who to banned from the pub But turns a blind eye to people he likes 😮

Friendly atmosphere staff are fantastic. The place could do with a face lift. Furniture is old and the ladies loo could do with a makeover!

Отличный паб, девушка бармен вообще бомба. Фотомодель.

Local community pub , not everyone's cup of tea but good for sports

Is now offering food excellent menu an good prices

Lively atmosphere good selection of drafts.

Service was pretty basic and decent. The food was tasty.

Despite hand pulled beers all being off when we went, we still had a good time. Well done to all for keeping it together

Very nice pub with very nice food, only criticism if you call it one, might just be personal preference.. the chicken in the tikka masala was nice but very fatty/gristly. Would recommend going!

We went to eat a meal. Having read the menu and ordered a meal. An hour later the meal was delivered, the cod and chips was small and I left hungry. My wife had a steak, but no one knew about gluten problems. We will never eat here again.

If Jeremy Kyle had a pub this would be it beer if awful

+ the price of beer, and a big choice of beer - we ordered a dish of a mix chicken wings etc. wich is listed as a portion for 2 person, its definitly not, it seemed as even less than a portion for one, and automatcly owerpayd for that. Rice is not included in the price of chicken tikka masala, and definitly does not justify the price for that quality of rice. In conclusion, i reccomend it for a drink, but for now, not for food...

Dreadful place. Wish I could give zero stars. Bad food, bad beer, worse service. Ordered two pints and two Southern fried chicken burgers. Was told to give numbers like a kebab shop rather than menu items. Both pints were poor tasting, on a beer I regularly drink. The burger was a plain chicken breast, chips were luke warm, and when I asked for sauce they did not return and had to ask again twice. Very disappointed

I was there killing a bit of time in Barking, waiting for a friend. It seemed like a nice pub, a mixture of people from various backgrounds. It wasn't expensive, and the bar staff were friendly.

Great atmosphere and staff, great curry and great DJ altogether brilliant evening.

Good local pub. Plenty of screens to watch sport etc. The beer is well looked after and we got a friendly welcome for the locals that we spoke to.Food is available too.

They dont have price list for drinks and charging people by the level how drunk they are i paid for a pint of beer in a plastic glass 12 pounds never coming back scum bags

no cask ale. pub has gone downhill (edited May 2022, apparently cask Coming soon, Sharps brewery) Edited, 25th May. Sharps Doombar, Sharps Sea Fury on cask. Atlantic pale ale keg. Much improved 👌

Decent pub but get rid of the village idiot who persists in shouting whooh the fool ruins the pub. Hes an absolute embarrassment and peeved everyone off not wanting to return

Stopped here to meet up with friends for lunch. Very friendly bar staff particularly the young lady, nice atmosphere and quick service. Good range of beers and lagers and a food menu with the usual suspects plus some Indian street food. We had fish & chips, scampi & chips and lamb samosas. Above average quality and nicely presented. Only surprise was the absence of a dessert menu which seemed strange. Would use again.

People are frendly, easy to get services from the bar or great food. Good seating inside or outside.

Great friendly banter and nice food

A great experience. Food was pretty good. Atmosphere electric especially for the cup final. I was in a group of 8 people and I must say the regulars here were a great bunch. We all had a great night.

Приятно място с чудесна бирена градина

If you wanna feel like in Ireland, in the old days, thats the place to be:)

Wife said ladies toilets are disgusting . You need to be dressed for winter as they haven't heard of turning the heating on. Used to be ok for a couples night out but now all sport and noise no atmosphere at all. Please at least have 1 area without sport so noisy we used to come regularly come again today but will not come back. The room outback could be sport free you'd find you get more couples and families coming.

Only visited once, no drama and beer was good tasting.

Pub is much improved over the past couple of months. Much clean. More seating in the beer garden. Relaxed atmosphere. And excellent food with a variety of Indian dishes and burger meals on the menu. Keep it up

Real English pub, I think ;). Nice People, good beer!

Always have a good time here. Nice regulars, great staff and management are very personable. Doubles up as a mini club downstairs when busy enough. Well worth a bash if you somehow find yourself in Barking looking for a tipple.

Convenient as next to Barking Station. Only one open now as Wetherspoons is now closed.

Great All rounder pub. Music sports prices not so bad will be back.

Nice traditional pub friendly staff best indan and Nepalese food I've tasted for a long time

Ok for a pint clean and tidy good prices

Good, cheap drinks, grubby atmosphere

Good place to enjoy Sports event with friends... Drinks lil bit Costly...

Couldn't run the proverbial p up in a brewery. No organisation or customer service. You're better off next door at the Wetherspoons

A complete joke. Booked a table in person at 5.15pm to watch the semi final against Denmark at 7.30. Turned up at 7.25 to be told that too many people had turned up and my table (which I had been shown earlier) had been taken. Was shown downstairs where a member of staff plonked a chair right in front of a large white pillar (no table) and told to sit there...."just the same as upstairs". Thanks a lot.

Lovely old pub, nice beer, friendly atmosphere.

Food downstairs in the beer garden great as usual. Kids eat for £2 and very decent prices on adults meals. Service upstairs is quite slow but overall nice atmosphere and food.

Still the best place to drink in Barking

Staff are rude and glasses are dirty. The only good thing about this gaff is they have music on a Friday.

I've had good nights in there. But! When you ask for a large jd and pepsi, or any drink similar. They give you such a small glass. And charge you nearly £5. Yet wetherspoons give you a much bigger glass. Talk about take the mick. Pubs like this are rather expensive

I'm told this is the best pub in Barking...

Peaceful pub at lunchtimes. Prices can be a little high and it is quite cold in there but staff are friendly.

really weird but quite and nice pub,good customer service

Greatly accessible place welcoming all the diverse people of the world 🌈

Typical local you would expect in Barking pretty friendly. Handy if the trains screw up

Staff was very polite and kept a smile on their face at all times, and very welcoming, only complaint woud be it needs to be slightly warmer indoors, other then that very enjoyable experience in a near by pub

Lovely cosy pub but some phone networks don't connect! Can't figure out why!

Lovely barmaid set the tone for this deceptively large, well appointed pub. Nice beer garden at the back. Interesting Czech beer on draft.

Cozy, comfy and reasonably priced.

Very close to Barking tube station, beer is reasonably priced and they accomodated a decent number of football fans who left happy. 👍👍

Imagine how good this place would be if they did Thai food

Good pub for beer and other drinks .. west ham fan surely visit ...

Only really decent traditional pub left in Barking. You'll pay a bit more than the Whetherspoons next dood.

What to do on a hot afternoon in London? Take the air-conditioned district line to Barking, turn left on leaving the station, and you will see two pubs with dog-inspired names. Barking, right? The Spotted Dog is the smaller of the two, and the second one you will see. As you walk in to what appears to be a closed pub, you see to your amazement an interior barely altered by time. Amazing barrels behind the bar, signs tempting you to try the port and sherry "from the wood", and an old railway sign which must have been retrieved the last time the station was updated. A lovely touch is the Leyton Orient scarf displayed high up beneath the clock, just in case you were in any doubt which team the customers support. The ceilings are high, making this a cool place to linger when the heat is on. Or you could sit at a table outside if you prefer. The landlord has a friendly smile, the customers chat, the music is not too loud ("Nothing Breaks Like a Heart") but in the Ladies one door does not close because it is too large.

Bira içmek kahve içmek sohbet muhabbet maç izlemek bar tarzı gibi bir yer istiyorsan tam senlik aga Barking için ön numara beş yıldız agaya
