The North Star
2nd
4.6(710 reviews)
92/100
The North Star is a lovely little community pub in London, blending a cosy atmosphere with delicious Thai and pizza grub, and a cracking drink selection – it's a real gem for a relaxed get-together.
Pros and Cons
What's Great

  • The food is spot on – think tasty Thai dishes and cracking pizzas, with fresh flavours that keep you coming back for more.
Areas for Improvement
  • The opening hours are a bit limited, starting as late as 2 PM and closing around 11 PM, which might not suit early birds or those wanting a full evening.
  • Being tucked away off the main road, it could be tricky to find if you're not familiar with the area, feeling a tad hidden.

The Fish Inn
3rd
4.6(213 reviews)
91/100
The Fish Inn in Barking is a cracking little spot for fresh fish and chips, boasting top-notch service and hearty portions that keep everyone coming back for more.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The fish and chips are freshly fried and taste absolutely delicious, with the fish being light, crispy, and full of flavour.
  • Portion sizes are generous and spot on for a satisfying meal, whether you're tucking in alone or sharing with friends.
Areas for Improvement
  • The fish can sometimes be a bit oily, which might put some folks off if they're after something lighter.
  • They occasionally run out of popular items like fried chicken, so it's worth checking ahead if that's what you're after.

Black Moon Lounge
4th
4.6(300 reviews)
91/100
Black Moon Lounge is a welcoming London spot with scrumptious food and a lively atmosphere, but it's worth keeping an eye on the prices to avoid any surprises.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely delicious and fresh, with plenty of rave reviews about how it can even win over picky eaters—it's a real treat for trying new dishes.
  • The service is warm and attentive; staff like Polina and Adil go out of their way to make you feel welcome, especially during quieter times.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some dishes can be overpriced, like those steaks that left one visitor feeling ripped off at £92 for two—it's a bit of a shock if you're not expecting it.
  • The food isn't always spot-on; a few have mentioned it lacking in bold flavours or seasoning, so you might end up reaching for the salt.

The Boleyn Tavern
5th
4.5(926 reviews)
90/100
The Boleyn Tavern is a delightful historic pub in East London that's full of character and serves up solid food and drinks, making it a top spot for a relaxed get-together, though it has a few quirks like overly chatty crowds.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is absolutely charming, with that classic British pub feel—think ornate dark wood and etched glass that make you feel like you've stepped back in time.
  • The food is a real highlight; from tasty burgers and fresh sea bass to delicious veggie roasts, it's all spot on and hits the spot after a long day.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some of the regulars can be a bit too keen for a chat, which might feel a tad overwhelming if you're after a quiet evening.
  • There are minor niggles with the food, like the fish skin not being as crispy as you'd hope, or the lamb not quite suiting everyone's taste.

The Black Lion Pub
6th
4.5(659 reviews)
90/100
The Black Lion is a proper gem of a pub in Plaistow, blending top-quality beers, a welcoming vibe, and handy amenities for a relaxed night out with friends.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The beer selection is absolutely spot on, with a great range of real ales that have earned them spots in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide – perfect for anyone who appreciates a proper pint.
  • It's got such a warm and friendly atmosphere, making it easy to feel right at home, whether you're popping in for a quick drink or settling in for the match with mates.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can be a bit quiet during the week, like on a Wednesday afternoon, so if you're after a lively buzz every time, you might find it a tad subdued at off-peak hours.
  • The food menu is more your classic pub grub, which is great if that's what you're in the mood for, but it might not satisfy if you're looking for something more adventurous or upscale.

Factory 15 is a gem of a bar and events venue in Barking, with a warm, inclusive vibe and fantastic drinks that make it ideal for a chilled evening or special occasion.

  • The food is spot on, especially the Sunday roasts and the selection of drinks; it's a proper treat for a relaxed meal with mates.
Areas for Improvement

  • Some of the food options feel a bit on the pricey side, so it might not be the best choice if you're watching your wallet.

4.4(410 reviews)
88/100
The Rookwood Village is a charming spot for a relaxed pint and some grub, boasting a great vibe and friendly feel, though it has the odd hiccup with food and service.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is absolutely spot on, with a brilliant back garden that's perfect for relaxing and catching up with mates on a sunny day.
  • Food hits the mark quite often – think delicious pizzas and burgers that leave you satisfied, especially when they're done right.
Areas for Improvement
  • Food quality can be inconsistent; some dishes, like certain pizzas, might turn out underwhelming with soggy bases or skimpy toppings.
  • Service isn't always on point – there have been times when it feels a bit overlooked, like staff not noticing you when you walk in.

Divino is a charming Italian spot in Gants Hill that's got a cracking atmosphere and delicious grub, making it a go-to for a laid-back night out, though service might vary a bit.

The Princess Alexandra
20th
4.4(168 reviews)
87/100
The Princess Alexandra is a cracking little pub with a lively atmosphere and live music, offering good value drinks in a traditional setting, though it's not the easiest to reach and lacks some beer options.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is absolutely spot on, especially with live music on Sundays that really gets everyone in the mood.
  • It's got that classic, traditional East End charm, feeling like a proper old-school boozer that's welcoming and full of character.
Areas for Improvement
  • No real ales on offer, which might leave some disappointed if you're after a more traditional brew – though they've got Theakston on draught, which isn't bad.
  • It's a good 10-minute walk from Canning Town tube, so if you're not up for a stroll, it could be a bit inconvenient.

4.3(750 reviews)
86/100
China Friend in Barking is a solid spot for affordable Chinese grub with a welcoming atmosphere, though it's had a few mixed reviews lately that show it's not perfect every time.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is generally delicious and packed with flavour, especially their fresh Cantonese and Hong Kongese dishes that hit the spot after a long day.
  • Portions are generous, so you'll likely leave feeling well-fed without breaking the bank – it's a proper bargain for an inexpensive spot.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some recent orders have been a bit disappointing, with watery dishes and smaller portions that don't quite live up to expectations, especially for regulars.
  • Service can be inconsistent; a few folks have mentioned less than friendly experiences, which might put a dampener on your visit.

The Golden Fleece is a proper traditional pub in London that's full of charm, with a huge beer garden and friendly service, making it ideal for a relaxed catch-up over good food and drinks.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The beer garden is absolutely massive and a brilliant spot for soaking up the sun, especially with its views of Wanstead Flats nearby.
  • They serve up some cracking food, like those hearty roasts that hit the spot after a walk in the greenspace.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get pretty packed, especially on busy evenings or during big sports events, so you might have to wait for a table.
  • As a traditional pub, it's not the spot if you're after something more upscale or gastro-like – it's all about straightforward, no-fuss vibes.

  • The food is a real highlight, with delicious options like fish and chips, classic pies, and plenty of vegan choices that are beautifully presented.

  • It's got a great vibe with a pool table and jukebox, perfect for a bit of fun and games on a casual night out.

  • The pub can feel a tad tired and lacking in charm, which might put off anyone looking for a more vibrant spot.

  • No food on offer except for crisps or the odd special like stew on holidays, so you might need to pop out for a bite.

  • Service is warm and welcoming, with staff who greet you with big smiles and make the whole experience feel like catching up with old mates.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some desserts, like the falooda, don't quite hit the mark for everyone and might need a bit of tweaking to get them just right.

The Bull at Wanstead is a lovely local pub with a cracking beer garden and top-notch Sunday roasts, but watch out for pricey options and the occasional slip-up in service or food quality.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The Sunday roasts are spot on – tasty, hearty, and a real treat, especially with those thoughtful extras like free drinks on Father's Day.
  • It's a welcoming spot with a fantastic beer garden that's a proper suntrap, perfect for relaxing with friends on a sunny evening.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some menu items fall short, like the wine selection which can be disappointing and overpriced, or that crispy squid which didn't impress at all.
  • Pricing across the board feels a bit steep, which might put off those looking for a more budget-friendly night out.

The Millers Well is a revamped London pub that's serving up some cracking food and a warm atmosphere, but it's moved on from its Wetherspoons days, so expect a bit more on the wallet.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely spot on – think juicy beef burgers and amazing chicken wings that really hit the spot.
  • Friendly staff who make you feel right at home, with a welcoming vibe that's hard to beat.
Areas for Improvement
  • It's not a Wetherspoons anymore, so prices have jumped up a bit, which might catch you off guard if you're expecting budget options.
  • The range of real ales isn't as varied as it used to be, which could disappoint if you're a beer enthusiast.

The Spot Fast Food & Shisha Lounge
35th
4.4(18 reviews)
82/100
The Spot in Barking is a cracking little grill and shisha lounge with friendly vibes and tasty treats, though it's not without the odd hiccup.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The shisha is top-notch, especially if you're after the best in East London – it's a real highlight!
  • Friendly staff who make you feel right at home, with amazing service that keeps things welcoming and efficient.
Areas for Improvement
  • There have been some inconsistent experiences with the shisha, like one letdown where it just didn't live up to expectations.
  • The online presence is a bit lacking, with no website or claimed Google profile, which might make it trickier to check out details beforehand.

Saravanaa Bhavan
36th
4.1(4986 reviews)
82/100
Saravanaa Bhavan is a gem for Indian cuisine lovers, offering authentic, tasty dishes at great value, though it's straightforward in style and might not suit everyone.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely authentic and packed with flavour – it's like a trip to India without leaving London!
  • Prices are really reasonable, making it a brilliant spot for a budget-friendly meal with mates.
Areas for Improvement
  • The ambiance is quite simple and functional – it's more about the food than fancy decor, so it might not feel all that atmospheric.
  • Some dishes could disappoint if you're expecting something different; for instance, the vegetarian options might not match up to non-veg experiences elsewhere.

  • The staff are really friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home from the get-go.
Areas for Improvement

4.0(1379 reviews)
80/100
Al Qasr is a welcoming buffet restaurant in Ilford serving up tasty halal Asian cuisine that's perfect for family meals or celebrations – it's got solid food and service, though the variety might not wow everyone.
Pros and Cons
What's Great

  • Service is spot on; the staff are friendly, helpful, and go out of their way to make you feel welcome, especially for family gatherings or special events like birthdays and weddings.
Areas for Improvement
  • The buffet selection isn't the most extensive, so if you're after a huge range of options, you might find it a bit limited compared to other places.
  • It's mainly open in the evenings and weekends, which could be tricky if you're looking for a spot for a quick lunch during the week.

4.0(129 reviews)

78/100
The Barking Dog is a solid, no-fuss Wetherspoons pub in Barking, offering affordable grub and a fantastic atmosphere for footy lovers, though it might not always be the most vibrant spot.
Pros and Cons
What's Great

  • The food is spot on and affordable, like those large English breakfasts or a lovely selection of beers that hit the spot without breaking the bank.
Areas for Improvement

What's Great
  • It's got a brilliant setup for watching live sports, with HD screens showing everything from football to boxing, making it a top spot for game days.

Barge Aground
50th
Barge Aground is a fresh pub in Barking that's yet to open its doors properly, but its quirky name hints at some potential for a good time once it's sorted.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The name 'Barge Aground' has a charming, nautical vibe that could make for a fun and memorable spot once it's up and running.
  • It's situated in Barking, which might be a handy location for locals looking for a new haunt in the area.
Areas for Improvement
  • It's currently closed, so you won't be able to nip in for a pint or a bite right now, which is a bit of a shame.
  • With no reviews or ratings to go on, it's tricky to get a sense of the atmosphere, service, or grub – it feels like it's still finding its feet.
