Great service, good food. However no cask was available on my visit. However, my Guinesses were in good order and topped off with a shamrock in the foam!

Sunday roast was so tasteless. Compared to what you expect from other establishments this is a sorry excuse for a roast. I would love it to be great I would pop in all the time but genuinely a very unseasoned roast and has a very frozen feel to it. Defo more of a boozer for the same old men than somewhere to have a meal.

We held my mums WAKE at the tavern last night after her cremation. We hired the room to the left of the bar which was just the perfect size for what we wanted. Nothing was too much trouble. Their care ,compassion and thought to detail for our situation was lovely. They prepared the room as asked and the food was served not long after we arrived. The food was very good, many compliments were given and for what we paid, there was just so much of it! Shaun and his team were amazing and we will definitely be using their services again, Great job and thank you again👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I think we shocked the bartenders. We were quite ready for shenanigans. We walked in and the room became silent. The existing patrons just looked at us for a minute and then went about their business. It's a beautiful home town pub! Inviting and open with a pretty standard menu with a twist of flavor and a little bit of heat. The bar tenders and the wait staff weren't so versed on american cocktails, but they were very accommodating, and after a little bit of time, they warmed up and were pretty cool. So, thanks to the blond bombshells for the drinks. If you're in the area of Tottenham or Chingford, do drop in!

Fancied a pub lunch with my partner and thought we would try somewhere new apposed to the usual ( The greene man). We had scoped the menu before going and thought that it looked good with some great options for mains and dessert! What a mistake!!! We sat down inside, after a few minutes the lady asked if we were having drinks , we said we were just deciding what to have. We were choosing what we were having on the app ( that their website says you can use to order) and she approached us abruptly a second time saying " You know you have to buy something you can't just sit in here! " , we then informed her that we had ordered through the app and she said " The app doesn't work..." she wanted us to check if the money had been taken and made us feel like it was our fault that something they have in place doesn't work. Ironically the app did work and the cook come out to tell us one of our items was out of stock ( which wasn't an issue). I chose something else unaware to myself that it was more expensive until the lady said she will have to sort out doing a refund and charging us again for the difference ( in my opinion this should not have been mentioned as for the troubles experienced already in goodwill they should have honoured the difference). The food was of good proportion and good standard but the service was terrible and for this reason i will not be returning or recommending this place. Perhaps the app should be removed from the website to avoid any further disappointment from future customers.

My husband and I visited The Old Hall Tavern to try out their menu as we had been recommended. We found the pub to be quite busy with other customers but it would seem we were the only people eating there. Should this have been an omen. We ordered the beef and ale pie with mashed potatoes and vegetables. The meals arrived after about a 15, minute wait ,which was fair. It was quite a substantial meal but the crust ont the pie was hard and overdone. The contents were tasty. The runner beans were 'all dente' which is how I like them but my husband complained they were not cooked enough. The staff were friendly but the general appearance of the pub was not very clean. Also part through our meal some members of the staff began moving tables and chairs I guess getting ready for the evening entertainment, if in fact there was one which made us feel a bit uncomfortable as we were sitting on the stage area We would not go back there I'm afraid but at least we tried it out.
