Slap bang on Ilford High Street, it's the kind of pub that feels like the neighbourhood's living room, where you'll spot the same faces nursing pints on a Tuesday as you will on Saturday night. The vibe is genuinely relaxed; you're not paying through the nose, the staff actually know their regulars, and there's proper pub food that doesn't pretend to be something it's not. Whether you're after a quick drink after work or settling in for the evening, this place just works.
