    Great venue in a super old pub. Has a garden out the back. Fast friendly staff. Average price drinks. 1/2 a cider and pint of lime and soda £5.10. Small stage area. But great sound. And you can get really close to the stage. Great venue.

    Good selection of ales in an authentic British boozer. Now mainly setup for gigs so you will see a mixed crowd. Outside seating areas to escape if you need to. Large bar area and quick service. Bohemian feeling with a range of torn leather chairs giving a relaxed feel.

    Great traditional East End pub, with a beer garden and adjacent pizza shack. Modest sized music venue, but that's how I like them. Thoroughly recommended.

    The Bethnal Green Beer was great. I shot a job here before and thought the place oozes character and history. Been again recently and it's still a great atmosphere and event space.. especially the beer garden/cobbled street. I recommend a visit.

    Pub and music venue which also has a food offering. Easy to get to being a short walk away from Shadwell DLR and Overground stations plus many buses pass by. They have a large outside courtyard with covered seating and a hut at the far end where you can order pizza from, they are top notch and not outrageously priced. No real craft beers but a healthy selection nonetheless with pricing typical of the area. The sound is good but the lighting leaves a lot to be desired and the smoke machine is ridiculous as both the stage and audience get engulfed, I'm not sure if it is healthy. Loos are on…
