07 July 2021 - From Twitter - The Gunners is closed until further notice. We will reopen, hopefully sometime soon.
The Gunners is a shrine to the club with red decor and many framed photos old and new. During all games, the front room is busy and loud but all good natured whereas the room to the rear is a bit more sedate. On recently were London Fields Shoreditch Triangle IPA (6%!) and Portobello Star. A nice place to either celebrate with or drown your sorrows. Food comprises pies and burgers.

Brilliant place for Arsenal supporters before matchday! Great vibes and atmosphere! My Number.1 place for drinks meet up with fans/friends every Arsenal Outdoor area with beers and food! Gunners larger must try!

So much fun to watch a game! We sat on the patio and met all kinds of fun people! Really had a great time. For food I only had fries and they rocked, but didn’t have enough to fairly rate! The place was so full of energy and fun and the staff are on it with service!

The pub was friendly staff I think the only thing that ruin it for me is that larger beer doesn't agree with my stomach and people kept spilling drinks on me when I was in there 😒

A great meeting place for AFC supporters. We ended up there on a weekend evening and found a concert by local bands. We had a very nice evening with a beer and the next day on match day it was a must-see place :)

Came here after a beautiful 1-0 win over Man City. Vibes were immaculate; tons of supporters singing all the songs, the burger and fries were good and the gunner lager was great. Also, Albert at the bar was incredible, friendly and made us a bunch of great cocktails.
