“This place stands out with its East London location and focus on local sourcing; the rooftop greenhouse and artisan drinks signal a commitment to something beyond the usual. Expect some quirks, as it's an older building above a proper pub, but that's part of the charm. It's a great option if you appreciate character over cookie-cutter perfection.”
