A Victorian corner pub on Broadway Market, with the original character intact and the whole street's Saturday-market energy spilling through its doors. Good cask ales and solid pub food make it classic pub drinking, and it is the natural starting point for a market crawl. Saturday is the event, when Broadway Market buzzes and the outdoor tables become contested territory — get there early to claim one. The rest of the week it settles into a proper neighbourhood local. It is Hackney pub-going at its most characterful, anchored to one of London's best market streets.
