    Traditional pub. Real ale and draft beers. Very clean and tidy. Traditional grub. Large screen show live sports. Spotless toilets.

    I recently visited The Good Samaritan with my girlfriend and had a fantastic experience. It's a very clean and tidy traditional pub with a large screen showing live sports. We were especially happy with the bartender, Antony, an Indian gentleman, made us wonderful Guinness and cocktails. Highly recommend!

    In my view it is a hidden gem. (Thank you teacher Sam for inviting me there) Beautiful small pub. I did not eat there so I won't comment. The service in general was very nice, prices are London prices, hence you know what to expect. Being small, makes it very cosy. My suggestion is, if you are around White Chapel, try it out, I think you will like it there.

    Well conditioned beers at good prices at this nice old East London boozer, and there's always lots of medical students from the hospital to earwig on. A great pub for a couple of pre and post Tayyabs beers.

    Great pub with a nice outside area that's out of the sun. Spent a bit of time here as it was a warm day and sitting in the shade with a beer is the best.
