"I've lived around here for years, and this used to be the sort of place where you got what you paid for. It was not flashy or high-quality, but it was a solid, old-fashioned boozer where you could get a cheap ale and some pub grub while watching the football. Now you don't even get that. In the last few months, new management has wrecked what little quality this pub had. It's constantly understaffed (sometimes just one person serving a full bar), the kitchen has been permanently closed, they have barely half the drinks on tap most days, and it seems like you need a degree in electrical engineering to use the speaker system, because not one member of the team ever knows how to change the feed. It doesn't help that staff turnover is turning over like a washing machine (obviously they're as unhappy as we loyal customers are). It was never fancy to start with, but now it has really gone down the pan, and it shows because people who used to come here all the time now go elsewhere. Meanwhile, the prices just go up and up. I know this isn't the fault of the people who do their best working there; it's the management's problem. Sadly, if you're after anything more than your third-choice drink served very slowly by underpaid and undervalued staff who don't want to be there anymore than you do, then go to the Chequers instead, a great pub on Walthamstow High Street. It's a bit dearer, but they do good food, it's cosier, the atmosphere is always fun, and they have multiple screens where you can watch live sports with commentary. I waited a long time before posting this review, because I wanted to give the new era a chance over several visits, but it just ain't working."

Poor service poor beer quality. Shame it used to be a lot better.

Super pub in London for food, booze, friendly welcome, and good atmosphere. Can't wait to go back.

Properly traditional London pub. Friendly enough service and lots of screens for sports etc. Not sure why exactly, but it's a bit depressing...

Proper drinking pub. No food available other than crisps and nuts, but the choices available aren't bad. Friendly staff, reasonable choice of beers. Plenty of different Gins available and very reasonable prices. (Double G&T £6.00)

A real, normal pub. Fantastic, huge beer garden. Dirt cheap drinks. Lots of big screens with all the sport you can imagine. Two pool tables plus dart boards. Food isn't great but it's that sort of frozen pub food you expect for really low prices. Lounge is massive but the beer area is nice and cosy. Karaoke on Friday seems suitably loud and dunk. Don't go for gourmet food or rare ales, but go for big brand drinks and a laugh.

Lovely staff. Lovely garden. Reasonable prices. But they used to have the best pool tables in walthamstow and they recently got rid of them for more seating that rarely even gets used. Bring back the pool! Or at least some other games. It doesn't feel the same without the pool tables. But overall decent place if you're just looking for an average priced lager. But without the pool tables there's nothing to make it stand out over the other pubs in Walthamstow.

New manager steff is great!! I wrote a review of this pub years ago which is now not revenant. That's because of the new manager steff, she honestly has changed the pub back into a lovely place to go. She and her staff shan and lola are really great together. We had a funeral there recently and steff could not have done enough for us to make everything perfect. They all made the best night and I know the manager will continue to make this pub a center of the community again.
