About Anchor & Hope
Small local pub with a weekend menu, a beer garden and log fires, set on the bank of the River Lea.
One of Fuller's smallest pubs, on the bank of the River Lea and dating from about 1850. Refurbished a couple of years ago, it has one bar with wood panelling and a dartboard at the rear, with a wood fire and bar at the front. Drinkers include wildlife enthusiasts and bird watchers, boaters and locals. Barbecues in summer, it is worth seeking out. Featured in 2017 film Anchor & Hope includes the landlord as an extra!

Wonderful little local drinking hole overlooking the canal and the overground, also on a running/cycle route. Shame they weren't serving food at 7.30pm on a Wed, and a member of staff drinking after shift a little awkward and overly chatty. Great bar snacks though. Otherwise staff were friendly, polite and attentive. Lovely pint of Guinness, beautiful calming views. A little gem not to be missed when passing.

Lovely old riverside pub on the Lea. It's a good walk from Tottenham hale along the towpath. Lots of houseboats moored along river Lea . Easygoing folk very friendly. The last time I was in it was 27 years ago.

A rather quirky and quaint establishment located on the north side of the river Lea. Whilst it's a Fullers house you wouldn't notice until you saw their beer selection which on cask consists of London Pride, ESB and usually a Dark Star ale . My pint of ESB was in excellent condition and the prices are far more reasonable that your average Fullers pub. It's a great location and especially great in the summer where you can sit out on the benches and watch the boats on the river. It's a little bit of a walk but don't let that out you off.

My favourite pub in East London and I know them all. On a nice summer evening it cannot be beat. Also you can get jerk chicken from the place Infront.

Very local booze. Kind of old man pub, with a lovely couple at the but that looks like coming from another era. Before big companies and hipster breweries. If you are along the Lea River it deserves a visit for the old fashion vibes and the real fire place.
