I’ve been to the Plough quite a few times over a couple of years. It’s a nice pub, the staff are friendly and they have a cocktail menu and decent draught selection. They have screens for the sports lovers and there are guest chefs now and again mixing up their menu. I’ve never been to their basement club but they do have one! And their roast is really nice!

Recommended us good beer. Large portions for Sunday roast but lacked in flavour and vegs were tough. Didn’t provide our table with the sauces for the meat when they did for all the other tables at the time - maybe they forgot but doubt it.

Fantastic Sunday roast. Would recommend making a booking as this place can get busy. The pork roast was better than the beef in my opinion, but the portion is slightly smaller. Can’t go wrong.

I didn't personally try the food but friends who did rated it "just above average". HOWEVER everything else was great, friendly staff, lovely atmosphere, decent prices for London and a friendly bouncer for once! Had a great time here for a friends birthday, had the downstairs room to ourselves, great that there is a seperate bar also.

Went here with a friend in Feb one evening. They didn’t put the heating on, every single person in the pub was sat there with their coat on. It was so cold. We ordered some ‘hand cut chips’ which were clearly frozen oven fries and some cauliflower bites, also clearly a frozen food product that have been put in the oven/frier. Not impressed.

Amazing local pub, we love visiting here - such friendly vibes and so cozy on a Sunday afternoon. Nice to watch the odd football match here too. The roasts are amazing and so is the ever changing menu. Yesterday I wasn't drinking and they gave me a pint of blackcurrant soda on the house - whereas in most other London pubs they'll charge you a couple of quid - I was chuffed!

The roast … 💯👌 The Roast pork belly was cooked to perfection, tender pork that melts In your mouth. A lil side of crackling to compliment. Then what really pulls this roast into another realm is all the components to run along side the main event. The roast potatoes are crispy, soft in the middle and fresh. Veggies roasted and delightful in taste. Then there is a very well prepped gravy to pull it all together. At the end you can try one of the home made deserts. When I went last week there was a choice of two fabulous tarts. Custard and jam and chockablock and toffee. I have also tried the veggie roast a few weeks previously. This was also very good. As for the space in which you are eating in it’s filled with light streaming from the south. There is a beautiful atmosphere that’s calm. The service is solid.

I've never received such a cold, unfriendly welcome in a pub in my entire life, least of all in Hackney which is one of the most vibrant, warm places in London (and replete with great pubs, bar this one). First & foremost, we turned up at about 12:40pm and the place was shut despite advertised opening hours being from midday. Instead of bothering herself to come to the door to advise when the place would be open, a rather miserable lady simply mouthed 'not open yet' from the bar. We then had to walk aimlessly in the area to kill time until the door was finally unlocked. When we walked in, no one greeted us, even when I went up to the bar to order. The lady working didn't even bother to look at me. This was very rude and made me feel very unwelcome. When she did open her mouth she was unfriendly and, frankly, quite weird. We almost left the place but my boyfriend suggested we persevere. And what a shame that we did: the Sunday roast that materialised was just poor; the beef was as tough as old boots and a cut of exceptionally low quality. When our plates were cleared, another slightly weird staff member, this time male, asked if we had enjoyed the food, to which I responded 'not really - to be honest, the beef was very, very tough'. To my disbelief, he pulled a face and said 'oh, was it?' before walking off. We left as quickly as we possibly could and I wouldn't dream of coming back: this was actually my second attempt at Sunday lunch here (the first time they'd ran out of most of the menu) and there will not be a third, despite this pub being the closest to my home. So very disappointing.

Only pub in London where you feel really cold even if there are 100 people inside. Whatever happened to the heating? You need to pay attention. I have seen at least 20 people with their coats on, this is not a good sign and should not be ignored. The kitchen deserves compliments though, your care with food preparation is clear and appreciated.

I guess I am giving them a name to put on their barred list but at least I will explain what happened to me and my friend. We went there last weekend to celebrate a friend's bday. Both Spanish and there were some people from the staff who also spoke Spanish and we thought it was great! Loved it! It was all fun and games till the system started playing up. Some of us got charged twice. We tried to explain, but the lady just wouldn't have it. She started being visibly angry, her body language was aggressive, she screamed at us. She even gave a shot to my friend and said (in Spanish, but literal translation would do): let me give you a shot, thanks to me you can drink a shot, it's the best we have. She gave my friend a shot a started clapping her hands... as if we needed them to drink a shot of tequila?!?! It was weird and passive aggressive. I felt distressed for my friend, and for the fact we were being accused of not paying despite the bank app was actually showing double payment. I went to Agustina, in the name of both of us speaking the same language, I tried to smooth things over and said: come on, you have been aggressive, no need for that. She wouldn't have it. Another guy came out and screamed at me. I yelled back saying I wanted respect. The reply they gave to my friend in her review speaks loud! Staff are aggressive. They told my friend they wanted to call the police. I think they didn't because they knew they would have only been laughed at...

A couple of days ago I went to The Plough and I have to say I found the experience somewhat maddening... I know barstaff everywhere are cautious due to COVID but having to pay the exact amount of cash or use a credit card for a drink is ridiculous. I can't say it creates a relaxed atmosphere. I had to go to the off licence to get exact change. As well as that it was a cold winter's evening and nobody had bothered to set a fire in the fireplace which I think is a bit Scrooge-like at this time of year...

This is a review of the Hot 4 U roast rather than the pub itself, which is nice enough and has a decent beer selection.

Like so many we hadn't dined out in a long time and my clever husband suggested to sulky me a mid-week local pick-us-up treat. I can only say wow. We loved Ceres when we last visited in 2019 but the tasting menu tonight with matched wines was out of this world and a steal at the price. Deservedly Michelin-recognised cuisine with such a friendly and professional face (just two young women currently run the whole outfit including single handedly chef-ing and wonderful front of house). Ceres is walking distance for us and we are grateful because it is a destination-grade restaurant. Fine dining for £48pp.

Laura has created the most welcoming and fun atmosphere in this sweet boutique Italian bakery. The coffee was so good we had to hold back from ordering a third! We ate the scrambled eggs with parmesan and it was 10/10 delicious. London needs more authentic places like this!

More like Gross Burger. Patty was extremely unlikely to be wagyu, and was more akin to a supermarket or fairground van quality patty. All the flavours were a bit off and the chips were overly oily, yet it still managed to be expensive. Place was empty so obviously others agree that this place is no good. The 4.5 stars review average aare a complete mystery and point to lots of fake reviews. Avoid.

We came to the Muddy Puddle last night to spin a few records, to be honest, but we couldn't bring ourselves to leave. Ben and Phoebe have made the perfect local venue with a very laid-back but positive atmosphere. Between the buzzing bar upstairs, beautiful back garden, and intimate live music area downstairs, there are plenty of comfy corners for conversation/hanging out. The coffee was exquisite, the food looks excellent (we haven't eaten there, YET), but what totally make it stand out is the unique energy and personalities of the owners which permeate the place. If I lived nearby this would be my favourite haunt. Our (totally unsolicited) verdict: 11/10!
