Spurstowe Arms

Nice pub and could be better if they paid attention to the food!! the menu looks good but offerings such as a longhorn burger should not be precooked or over cooked and the 2 i had were both that. The chips were oily and pre cooked-to be soggy.If you are making those burgers you shouldn't blitz the mix too long. All this makes you over priced. I woulnt go back to dine nor risk looking at anything else on the menu.

This a decent pub with a good selection of beer and wine. The food, however, is hit and miss. On one occasion I had a truly fantastic burger. The other occasions though were completely average. Overcooked and unseasoned. The kitchen even refused to make it again. A shame since we quite like coming here. I guess we'll just eat somewhere else.

Nice looking pub, good food, very decent drinks list (£25 for a bottle of Prosecco is a rip though), fun identikit-hipster crowd with little sense of their own ridiculousness... but that goes with the territory. Daft bar staff (they need to move one of the mirrors on the wall by the door, the poor loves can't stop staring at themselves). But… the Spurstowe gets one star for the toilets. If you're the kind of pub with a good steak tartare on the menu and a very capable Galician octopus, you should assume your customers aren't the kind of people who are going to nod off on heroin in the bogs so PUT A BLOODY LOCK ON THE TOILET IN THE GENTS.

went here for dinner and drinks a few nights ago with some friends for the first time after being told about this uber chic pub. I must say it very much stood true to the reviews! Good reviews that is! The food was the best we have had in east london in ages and it cleverly chimes with changing appetites and budgets. Staff were easy on the eye and it seems as though long hair and beards are a requirement. No complaints from this young lady! The crowd may seem a bit pretentious but most london pubs have been infiltrated with this type. Will definitely be going back! KUDOS chef you have just scored a group of devotees to your outstanding cuisine! Looking forward to going back.
