Jimmy Hendrix and Eric Clapton were on this bar on finish 60s

Had a lovely experience at the speakeasy! All the staff were welcoming and friendly. Defiantly recommend!

Your bounce osman made me feel safe and welcome

How long have we got. I mean, talk about a hole in one. Absolute carnage all over the gaff. Number 1; it’s all about the people first, and don’t get me wrong besides a few Gary’s and Phil’s everyone are fabulous. The staff, perfect. The food almost perfect. The vibes… 11/10. Cannot say one bad word about this place.

What a pub. I don’t have the superlatives to do it justice… cracking atmosphere, stunning beer and even better staff.

An excellent place for a drink. Great staff, good fun. Great vibes all round 🤌🏻

Great bar, good selection of drinks, really helpful staff and amazing for the sport. Highly recommend.

Great pub! Friendly staff and great atmosphere — will definitely be back!

Absolutely gorgeous vibes. Well worth going to for a few drinks if you’re in the area or even worth travelling to go to!

This speakeasy is speaking my language!!! Unbelievable venue, would highly recommend

Best place in Hackney for watching sports in the summer

10/10 place. Great food, great atmosphere, great craic. Can’t beat it really.

Great spot for the euros semi final - atmosphere and beer 10/10!

It all started in the summer of 24’… Some say the happiest day of their lives; is the birth of their first child, marrying their true love or achieving sporting greatness. I respectfully disagree, the best day of my life was in fact discovering Speakeasy ❤️ A truly enlightening place to enjoy some beautifully brewed beer with a beautiful crowd of people.

Probably the best place to watch Ollie Watkins score a last minute winner in the whole world.

Be careful stepping foot in this establishment - you’ll never look at your local the same way ever again. The Speakeasy has it all. Ice cold beers (bargains galore), electric atmosphere, quality staff (including the best bouncers in LDN), banging grub and the ultimate set-up for consuming sport. Here’s a fun fact for you: The Speakeasy has the highest density of screens for watching sport out of any establishment in Northern Europe - and as a result - it has been dubbed a sports fan’s Valhalla in multiple publications. It certainly is mine. Thanks, Speakeasy - I love you. (photos attached of Speakeasy scenes)

The Speakeasy is a beautiful bar, Nights here are long under the stars When you have a pint here, Maybe even some caviar, You’ll see no other place in London is on par. So I will never stray too far, From this beautiful bar!!!

Should be called the Drinkeasy. You won’t be speaking easy after a night out in this place (because of all the beers/good times).

Great spot to watch football. Staff are super friendly and spirited. Shame it isn’t an actual speakeasy — don’t want anyone else finding out about how good it is.

We’ve been going to the Speakeasy for years and have been regulars during the Euros. We missed the booking slot for the final but they reached out on Instagram as they’d saved a few places for regulars - so kind and thoughtful!! Aside from that, atmosphere is always buzzing, pitchers of Asahi are always great, and food is delicious! Highly recommend 😊

Great place to watch the euros, screens everywhere and staff are really sound

You could go on a 12-month bar crawl through London and you wouldn't find another boozer like the Speakeasy: where else in this great city can you watch a Euros semi-final surrounded by England fans and stroll casually into the urinals (no queue), then casually up to the bar (no queue) for a pint of the tremendous own-brand Speakeasy lager? It pains me that I can only award this place five stars...

Great setup, class prices, lovely staff! Would be the best place to watch England in London if they turned up the commentary volume a bit more and really pumped the England songs at HT/FT.

If Carlsberg did sports bars, The Speakeasy would be Stella Artois'. Unquestionably the best sports bar in London, probably the world.

Epic place to watch the Euros! Really good atmosphere and drinks service!

Best gaf in London to watch the Euros - lovely big jugs of lager

Went with a large group, atmosphere was great, service was fast and staff all very friendly, highly recommend!

Watched the England Netherlands game with my friends here and had a splendid time. Creamy pints too

Perfect place went with my friend Harry Alderman, amazing for watching the Euros

This is the best place to watch the Euros. Atmosphere, amazing! And the beef burger was fantastic - Harry's brother.

Amazing night. Everyone was so fabulous.

Loved the atmosphere, loved the food, loved the affordable pints! Owners are so helpful! Highly recommend! Harry Alderman the booking wizard!

Such a great atmosphere here, especially at the football! Totally recommend, love from Rhea’s table

Best pub in London! Would highly recommend for international tournaments. Loads of screens, great atmosphere and plenty of space

Amazing bar for so many different reasons - cute but covered garden, nice staff and good wine! My new go to in Dalston - especially for football, there are so many screens!

LOVE THEM, such a vibey atmosphere, good cocktails, and the staff are always so accommodating. Highly Recommend!

Staff were incredible. Great venue for the euros with loads of screens, really good spot!

My favourite bar in Dalston, great staff on the door and at the bar. Always willing to help. Great atmosphere for the football or a cozy drinks night

Best spot for sports or even just a drink in the sun. Super nice

The toilets are terrible. If its even slightly busy you cue longer for toilet than bar. Also expensive.

Great vibes for euros !!! Jack looked after us super well (and it was his very first day!!!!)

Great bar, good beer and atmosphere, would give 5 stars if not for an overly aggressive bouncer

Poor service from the bouncers, average vibe and expensive drinks. Better than doing nothing on a Friday night but not better than countless pubs nearby.

Pretty good prices here, fast to get a pint too. Didn’t have to wait once. I remember the lady in the toilets was working particularly hard to keep the place clean and stocked up, which is appreciated, worth a shout out.

Cerkah best manager ever and the staff are amazing

Beautiful pub, Sergei is so kind and provided us with really quick service! Outdoor area is large but still cosy

Mediocre bar and constant noise leak to next door’s art space.

Amazing place, lots of screens and good beer

Amazing staff, amazing atmosphere

I recently visited this magical place in Dalston Junction and there are no words to describe the food, the atmosphere and the lovely staff. Defo a must visit place in London!

Excellent pub! Large and roomy. With music at level that makes possible to talk

Thank you so much for amazing food and fresh beer. Thanks you for nice chat Ross!

Best place in Dalston with a beautiful garden really nice staff and food.

A good fun place to have a drink

Prices are always different for the same drinks. We gave up and decided to abandon this place forever when a small glass of tap soda in a grimy plastic cup was suddenly £4. The wine is truly horrible, and I’m not that fussy, but the clincher is the staff, who (with the exception of very pleasant door staff) are so rude it takes your breath away - they literally ignore you when you speak. See ya!

Saw a very accomplished and rousing band here. Food was typical, low grade pub grub (wraps, chips, other fried delights). Vaping and smoking by patrons not challenged here. People blew smoke in to other peoples faces throughout. Would *not* visit again. Most staff nice enough. Best part is it’s outdoors location in warmer weather. Fairly trashy with a rough-ish undertone.

Drinks ok, food poor. Ordered a load of starters to share with a group of us. Chicken wings were the tiniest things I’ve ever seen, the waiter was uninterested and clearly didn’t want to be there. They did however bring out a few more complimentary overcooked micro chicken wings, thanks guys 😊

Rude bar staff. If you’re going to show the football then put it on the television.

Genuinely one of the nicest places I have been, the staff are lovely, the drinks are fairly priced and the food is good, the garden is great with plenty of seating and heaters for those colder nights. A must visit for anyone curious

Friendly staff, great atmosphere, good for sports and for a drink with mates

Top boozer, good for sports, superb staff

My friends and I couldn’t believe how rude the bar staff were. It was a sunny afternoon with 3 tables to serve and they were SO miserable and judgemental. It almost felt like bullying any time you went up to the bar. Don’t go. There are so many better options in Dalston

Speak easy is one of my favourite places. The service is wonderful. And the boss is friendly and great! This place is a vibe. If you ever need to go anywhere during a hot summers day. Then it's here.

Impeccable service can’t fault this place had a glorious experience

AVOID AVOID AVOID Extremely rude service. If you want to have a good night, you should really go somewhere else. The staff is terrible here.

Decent all round bar. Fantastic value, have a lot of choice for lagers. Cocktails are well made and again decent value. There is a large amount of outdoor seating. Everyone from the bar staff to the security were very friendly and welcoming. They serve some nice nibbles and nachos as well.

Nice pub with massive outdoor evening atmosphere

Visited yesterday for the first time and really loved the atmosphere! Will definitely be back

I'm giving the Bliss Cafe 5 stars - really great full english breakfast - and frothy cofee Oh wait it doesnt exist anymore it closed down years ago Sorry

Cocktails are brilliant outdoor area is really good especially with the heaters. Highly recommend.

Very good all round, chilled place

I celebrated my birthday here and it was such a wonderful experience. The vibes were amazing, the staff were wonderful. Would come here over and over! Great place to celebrate an occassion

Such amazing staff and so lovely. Treated my friend so beautifully on their birthday!

Amazing staff, loved my food and drinks, came very fast and love the service. Would definitely come again

Great service, nice food, nice cocktails!!

Wonderful atmosphere, great improvement

A fine establishment that I frequent often. Great happy hour!

Great service. Lovely people great cocktails

Amazing service! I come here all the time

A lost ancient script says that the table service during the happy hour used to be fast... who could imagine!

Best bar in dalston, cocktails are the bestttt you need to try the mai tai if you go here. Staff so nice too.

Great atmosphere, great vibes, big screen for the womens euros. Will come again

Really nice environment, friendly staff and good vibes :)

Great service! Had a great time!! Bouncer was especially friendly and professional.

I had the most splendid experience drinking at Speakeasy, the staff were so welcoming, friendly and overall wonderful. This venue will always hold a special place in my heart. If you are in the area please go. Ross the manager is one of the warmest and swell gentleman I have ever met.

The worst place to organise a drinks do. No communication in between managements. Despite booking a month in advance for a drink event on the 19th July, 2022, going multiple times to speak and confirm the booking with the management, I had to found our that the man in charge had no clue about my booking. Even though it was written in their diary. Which was kept with the security. When asked about the reservation and I got a reply by the manager that I can go somewhere else if I have a problem with this. I would've, if I hadn't told my friends meet there for a drink already. The attitude of the manager was so unpleasant throughout the evening that I was worried that he'll be rude with my guests and so I was buying most of the drinks, just to keep them away from the bar and from the manager. The service in the bar from straight face, no smile bar staffs were telling me that they weren't so happy to work their either. My advice, stay away.

Great space, good energy, manager is very helpful with orders. Prices are affordable. BTW the burger was good.

Came for a friends birthday the security and staff, especially Muss Ross and Serkan, were so attentive and helpful they made my friends birthday will deffo be back

Great place to chill either on your own or with mates. Superb drink prices and offers from 5 till 7. Fantastic for a sunny days drinking, take a jumper or a jacket though as it can get cold.

Very good burgers and fries 🍔🍟 Friendly staff ☺️

What a Saturday night! Thank you guys for your hospitality :*

Delicious food and good drinks. Thank you all for the great night!

Biggest garden in Hackney! Love the vibe, cocktail and perfect food...we will see you guys again soon. Thanks very much for your excelent services 🍹🍻

Bloody Mary’s are amazing And the passion for bloody Mary’s are ecstatic

Great cocktails and fun atmosphere, both inside and in the garden! But not so loud that I couldn't talk with my friends. Perfect! (Although everyone was actually chased out at 00:30 on Saturday night, which was novel)
