The only thing I didn't manage to find was a salad. However there's plenty to satisfy all tastes - vegetarian food, burgers, fish and chips, steak, chicken, bangers and mash... delicious. A great range of beer and wine too. They also have great theme nights - jazz night, quiz night, dance nights. Go along and check them out ... It's a great place to visit!

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.

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.

It has so much potential but unfortunately it has been poorly for many many years (the current landlord is a joke). I gave up on this pub a long time ago which is a shame as it looks so nice from the outside. Unfriendly staff make for an unfriendly atmosphere. If there is one positive thing about this put it is that it has a pool table which is stuck out in the back room away from the main bar.

Fish of the day no veg piece of cod served up with a few peas and lamb dish minus the blackpudding mousse and a miniscule piece of fondant potato and again no vegetables.

Located next to God's Own Junkyard and nearly opposite Wildcard Brewery, Mother's Ruin is the ideal…read moreplace to spend a lazy weekend afternoon sipping gin cocktails and taste-testing gin liqueurs before buying a bottle to take home for yourself (their sloe gin lasted me through an entire summer - just one whiff conjures memories of balmy evenings spent with the windows flung wide open). I have my favorite order, the Mother's Royale (your choice of gin liqueur topped with prosecco - I usually opt for the damson, cassis or sloe gin) and a sausage roll, which is served piping hot. There are plenty of seats inside, but when the weather's nice, the outdoor seating area is the perfect place to mingle with friends.

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!
