Whilst Scenario in Dalston is focused on console gaming (Wii U, SNES and others), Secret Weapon are focusing on PC gaming similar to Meltdown and as such have several PCs for people to try out. The drinks on tap are a bit more like a typical pub fare in that there is Carling, Guinness and Budvar (Czech) and several others; but their bottle and can range is more vibrant from several breweries such as Flying Dog and Monteiths, In addition they have the same gaming cocktails that their Dalston bar are known for so it adds to the gaming vibe. The pub itself is largely intact from it's previous form in that it has kept more of the old school decor around. It has only one floor, but there is a beer garden out the back so you can get some fresh air in between gaming or watching some people play games.

Some of the other bands are great too check out the website for listings. Prices are cheap, free to get in if your early, £3 if not, cloakroom is free, drinks are usual pub prices. There is a car park but its small and gets full early. Nearest station is Seven Kings (5 min walk). I go here about once a month and have never had a bad night, the only thing I would say is wear flat shoes as plenty of dancing = crippled feet if wearing stilettos, I speak from experience!

The premises was originally an hotel - still called the Spotted Dog - handy for the railway line (the station is just a very short walk away). One of my best memories of the place was sitting down with a group of mates and drinking port - yes, port - served in a large jug at the table. Other fortified wines still feature on the alcohol menu today. Still a 'locals' pub, it's also a mix of city-smart types (I was one of them!) and the atmosphere is colourful and characterful. Maybe not a place to spend the entire evening but as a stop-over with friends (inside or outside in the courtyard) it's worth it for the port alone.

Wow, when was this picture taken??? I have never seen barking this quiet before, especially as…read morethere is barking station across the road to it!!! Anyway, this is perhaps my favourite pub that i have been to. It is situated in Barking, East London. With Barking Station being across the road, it has great access by the district, hammersmith & city and C2C lines. Dispite being in a very busy area (there are also 2 bus stations nearby and bus stops outside where around 10 different buses stop) the pub is actually quite quiet. There are 5 main area in this pub. The first is the front beer garden. With seats and tables, it is always open in the summer although quite a small area. Not my favourite place. Usually the last resort if all other seats are filled. The second is the main area, where the bar is. This is as you walk in. There are plenty of tables and chairs here wich are usually the first to get filled. The third is the back area. This is my favourite area. It has that old pub feel to it, with beer barrels and beer making instruments stuck to the walls and ceilings. There are plenty of booths here along both walls, left and right. There is a sofa area in the middle. During the days and most weekday evenings and weekends, this area is pretty quiet and is air conditioned. The forth area is the private room. I think the pub came with a small room, so they turned it into a private booth area that will seat around 6 people. The fifth is the back beer garden. This is a secluded outdoor area which is rather large. During the summer, it is a great area to sit. Its very quiet considering a tube line runs underneath. I think the main reason this pub is quiet is that there is a weatherspoons next door. As this is a very popular chain that sells food, that pub is mostly packed. I am not sure why more people do not go here. i love it. Occassionally on fridays, there are performers there, from elvis imporsonators, irish singers and various bands. The staff are great. very polite and helpful. There is also a wide range of beers, largers and ales. A great place to go for a quiet pint. Very highly recommended.

***3.5 Stars*** Not…read morethe best pub fare, but still a decent option if you're looking for some cheap and filling pub food in the Stratford area. I stayed in Stratford while visiting London and I passed by this pub a few times while on my way to the city. I finally decided to stop by for brunch one morning before heading to the train station. This pub is really spacious!!! They have a really nice back patio area and a few tables out front. There's no table service here but you can order from your phone using an app or just order from the bar. What makes this place great are their ridiculously cheap deals! OH how I loooove them great deals! You can get an ish load of food for about £3.50 (that's roughly $5 in American dollars give or take the daily exchange rate). They also have great deals on drinks and you can get pitchers of beer and cocktails for dirt cheap too. I ended up ordering their traditional breakfast in addition to a bowl of porridge which was too damn much food for lil' ol' me. But you know how Yelp goes; eyes are always bigger than your stomach! The traditional breakfast includes sausage, bacon, hash browns, toast, eggs, beans and a tomato. HELLA food for £3.50!!! As far as the food quality goes, it was nothing spectacular but it was still good. It did the deed for brunch so I wasn't complaining. I actually really liked the porridge but got too full to finish it. It was thick but still really creamy. You can choose which toppings that you want with it. I chose bananas and brown sugar which went perfectly! I had only planned on getting one drink but it didn't make sense since it was only a couple dollars less than getting a full pitcher. I had been drinking beer for the past few days, so I decided to get a pitcher of their Tuity Fruity cocktail. Um yeah... didn't finish that either! But, I sho' tried my damned hardest. The cocktail was tasty and I didn't feel anything at first, but I did end up getting a buzz as I was walking to the train station. Thank GAWD for the train station because driving wouldn't have been an option. Although there was no table service, everyone that I encountered at the pub was extremely friendly. This seems like a locals joint too as many of the staff members knew people as they walked in. This is also a great place to catch the games since they have a tons of TV's inside. All in all, it's a solid spot for a cheap and filling brunch in the Stratford area.

Not many screens that I can see so I'm not sure if it would be a great sports bar. But I was sitting at the corner so it could just be wrong spot. Food tasted super unhealthy but nice!
