Clapton’s riverside gem

Taking pride of place along Lea Bridge Road and overlooking the River Lea, our pub is a true hidden gem in the heart of Hackney. Just a short stroll from Lea Bridge and Clapton stations, we’re not only dog-friendly, we’re dog-obsessed! Your four-legged friends are always welcome and treated like one of the crew.

As the colder months set in, our beautiful beer garden transforms into a magical winter wonderland. Fully covered and heated, it’s the perfect spot to sip mulled wine, enjoy a rich winter ale, or warm up with one of our signature cocktails, all while surrounded by twinkling fairy lights and seasonal charm.

Inside, you’ll find a menu full of hearty, homegrown recipes crafted to keep you cosy, alongside a bar stocked with craft beers, curated wines, and expertly mixed cocktails. Whether you’re settling in for a long Sunday roast or catching up with mates over festive drinks, there’s no better place to escape the chill.

You’ll always get a friendly welcome from Ryan and his magnificent team, who look forward to welcoming you soon.

The food is exceptionally good, the people working there are very nice and fast. The ambient is very cozy and even if it's always full it doesn't feel too noisy. I would especially recommend the roasts, the chocolate cake is incredibly good, and going in groups of 4-5 so you can gent a table near the window with views to the canal.
