Down a cobbled spur off Brick Lane, this totally unfashionable boozer attracts by its very lack of pretention. Background sounds of 'Bohemian Rhapsody' battle with ambitious chatter about Leyton Orient's chances of making the play-offs as blokes sink pints of Sharp's Doom Bar, Crouch Vale Brewer's Gold, and Fuller's ESB and London Pride.

Everything on the menu, served beneath an awning proclaiming 'Mary's Pantry', seems to come with chips and cost £2.50; the quite wonderful white-and-tabby tomcat treats everyone with disdain, so don't even bother trying to win his favour.

Framed black-and-white photographs of the East End's past decorate a seen-it-all single bar room of faded red banquettes, and there's even a piano in the corner should you find yourself in urgent need of an old-fashioned knees-up.

Simply a pub. No poncing around, good beer, real people. What more could you want?

One of the best pubs in Londoan and a bastion of a great East end pub in the heart of trendy shoreditch ... Get a propper pint of ale and say hello to the fat pub cat that likes to sit on your lap.
