Food isn't great but it's that sort of frozen pub food you expect for really low prices. Lounge is massive but the beer area is nice and cosy. Karaoke on Friday seems suitably loud and dunk. Don't go for gourmet food or rare ales, but go for big brand drinks and a laugh.

Lots of new ones for me and I followed the crowd in selecting Buzz Light Beer, the honey-est flavoured bee-er I hive ever tasted (haha sigh). It was rather nice. The icing on the cake? A falafel tent erected outside the pub. You can order there and they will bring the delicious result to you at your table in the pub. Not sure how often that is the case of course, but if its outside I would recommend it.

I've known this pub for three years now. As an essential aspect of the Walthamstow community, it…read morehosts a range of pop-ups, gigs, etc. I've been to both the pop-up Thai restaurant and wood oven pizza, which were fantastic. Unfortunately, the actual pub doesn't serve food. The pub staff are always really nice even when they're busy. The clientele range from older men to hipsters to young professionals to everything in between. It's a really good place to grab a pint and they even allow four legged friends. I had a lovely time here last night listening to a blue grass band. There was lots of people there and even some dancing. The atmosphere was great and we really enjoyed ourselves! Now that I've listed all the positives, I do need to talk about the negatives. The pub needs a restoration as it is beginning to look a little worn. For example, the carpets need to be replaced and it could do with a fresh coat of paint. However, the place is pretty clean for a pub! This is pretty minor as the other elements are way more important to a night out. On the other hand, this is also part of the vibe. Overall it's a charming aspect of the community that I'm glad is around!

To say that the British backstreet public house is an increasingly rare sight in Britain would be…read morean understatement. The Coppermill Tavern is a good one. Coppermill Lane itself is a popular thoroughfare for cyclists and walkers on route to the Lee Valley park, Walthamstow marshes and Springfield Park in Clapton so to those in the know it's not as tucked away as some might suggest. In fact this end of Walthamstow is much closer to central London than the more popular Village area some distance to the east. The Coppermill Tavern always seems to have three ales on hand-pump including a guest and I've found them to be well kept at all times. The pub is very much an after work venue as I've found that it will clear out about 9pm when every has had there fill having started early. The interior is characterful too with cabinets of curiosities and signs featuring in-jokes above the various seating areas. In recent years they have opened up a small yard to the side to act as smoking area, it's not glamorous but clean and private with tables and chairs. I often found myself chatting to other customers when seated in the yard. This pub needs to be supported, please don't be put of by a strong London accent, they don't bite. Get a bike, take a ride around the marshes and the river and pop into the Coppermill on your way home. Ace.

We needed a beer after walking to the top of Tottenham Stadium with the Dare skywalk, and this…read moreplace was right across the street from the stadium. I can only imagine the amazing atmosphere here during a game. I ordered the Bones lager and hubby got Neck oil. We enjoyed both on their patio behind the building. Neck oil was on tap in many pubs we visited, so it's obviously a very popular beer in London. I like all the colorful art in the taproom and on their glasses as well!

Tried many of their flavors so I decided to stick with the neck oil session IPA. Also got me 10 for my suitcase. Nice spot and a nice day so lots of folks hanging out on the picnic tables.

MMM has kept the original layout, which is beautiful with marble floors and pillars. They even pay homage to their former origins by projecting Tom & Jerry onto the wall above the door. They have two different bars--one cocktail bar and one normal (beer and wine) bar. The staff are very helpful and are happy to make suggestions for drinks. We treated ourselves to cocktails, which were very nice but quite expensive (15GBP for two)! Apparently, they also do very good food here. The menu looks great and the staff highly recommend it! I will be back to check out the food. Overall, I was very glad that we checked this place out and I will definitely be back. Another great addition to the Walthamstow scene!!

When I heard Antic had opened a bar in the foyer of a former cinema I was expecting it to be…read morepretty small but it's actually pretty substantial - there's even pillars inside a couple of stories tall! I loved it, it's wonderful and frankly I was amazed it had been saved and not turned into flats or something while the cinema was closed. There's a separate cocktail and wine bar at the front, which really makes you feel like having a cocktail, but if you resist then the bar at the back serves various beers. The only bad point of course is the toilets, Antic always have bad toilets, and this time they were not only in poor shape but were completely flooded. I appreciate it's an old building but if they can get the rest so right then why not the toilets?? Typical Antic :) I'll still give them 5 stars though as the rest is a marvel for sure.

Came here for our first actual Sunday roast in GB and were not disappointed! Delicious chicken,…read moregravy, pud, veg, everything I could have hoped for! Our friends had the ribs & fries, which apparently they have every week and which looked incredible. Fried pickles were out of this world (crispy, salty, spicy aioli) and almost a meal in themselves.

This area out back is not as well kept and colourful with flowers as it used to be but still a welcome sun trap. As with other wetherspoons, great prices, good range of drinks and decent food although we have found a number of times certain menu items not available. All in all, not the best wetherspoon but can be nice in summer and does have a friendly atmosphere.

So I had the beef pie instead. The beef pie was good with the side of mashed potatoes, but like a few girls I know would say, I've had better. Overall, a good place, especially for the location and I, will try it again. hopefully on my second visit, I will be able to get the Sunday roast, and hopefully, it will be worth another star in my review.

First of all, it's actually off a main road on the very edge of Tottenham and not far from the resevoirs and lakes nearby. Okay it boils down to this: the food here is damn good! close your eyes for a sec - now think of all typical British pub food and think of them done very, very well. If you like some of what's in that imagination, then go to the Ferry Boat. The steak is particularly good and their desserts will surprise you a lot! The strawberry cheesecake there beats the undies off most fancy cake shops in the city. The atmosphere is good, no rowdy or shady characters here (apart from me of course~!) should make for a decent meal out with friends; a nice and spacious beer garden is also pretty good if the weather is nice (yep, all 4 good days of the year!) The only downer is the fact that the furniture is a bit off compared to the otherwise exceptionally nice interior (with woodfire and country house feel). The chairs are at times rickety, and some pretty mismatched and gawdy. It says 3 stars on top but I'd give it 3.5. I wouldn't cross the city to dine here, but if you want a safe choice and are nearby then check it out. Ash

This pub can be a bit tricky to get to. It's not really near any stations, but the area is very…read morewell served by bus. This is a large pub, with a dartboard and a couple of tellys. The décor is Victorian and the walls are covered with various beer memorabilia, most coming from somewhere else of course, but that doesn't make it look any less impressive. The drinks are cheap, about 2 pounds a pint for the ales. The lagers are a little more. The reason why the ale is so reasonable? Well it is brewed just out back. This pubs small beer garden separates the pub from the Brodie's brewery. They do make some excellent beers. The Blonde and the sunshine were my favourites but I managed to sample most of them and they were all pretty decent. The Thai food here is reputed to be excellent. I'm afraid I only tried some prawn crackers but they were certainly decent so I'd be keen to try a full meal here sometime. This is a really excellent pub, very close to a 5 rating, but I'd like to come back to be sure.
