Great pub and even better food. I was shocked to find the fish and chips was gluten free as they use a gluten free flour and cider instead of the typical beer batter, it was so yummy 😋

I visited this pub before a home match at West Ham's London Stadium. Very popular with fans. Good beer. Had to queue at the bar, but this was unavoidable as so many fans were gathering for the match.

Had the duck breast with potato gratin, rainbow chard and port and plum jus. It was rather disappointing tbh. The rainbow chard just looked like shredded cabbage and the plum and port jus tasted like plain old gravy. The duck had no discernible flavour either. Rather disappointing for a £25 meal. The banana waffle, which I had for dessert, was nice though. Paid £12.50 for a rather small 'medium' glass of wine too. My brother had the plant based burger which he said wasn't nice. He also complained that the cranberry juice was too sweet and tasted watered down. All round improvement needed, it seems.

I went to the cow in Stratford for a few drinks. There was a really friendly bubbly person who served me and speaking to me and my friends. I believe his name is Daniel or Danny. He made our afternoon and was in a very good Christmas Spirit!

This is the third time visiting The Cow in Stratford with my family and I and it's fast becoming an annual event. The staff are always friendly and the food is excellent. I personally like the steak but other family members have said their burger, fish & chips, ribs, steak & ale pie and plant burger were all excellent too. We have always been seated on the top floor, as a large group, so the ability to have a conversation is easy. The ground floor can be busy and on West Ham home games very busy. You can turn up on the day and get a seat but I would personally recommend booking in advance to guarantee your place. I definitely recommend The Cow for the food, service and staff as all are excellent.

We booked The Cow for our (large) family Xmas gathering last weekend and it was a real success. The food was, on the whole, good and portions decent. They were able to deal with multiple varying orders (including kids and allergens) without issue. The service was brilliant during the day and we were made to feel welcomed and able to take our time. We will definitely book again. Particular shout out to Andora on the booking team and Laura, Nikki and Amy from the on-site service team. Thanks for helping make the weekend go without a hitch.

Very Poor Service. Arrived Sunday evening 16:30, one staff member behind the bar, with a least 2 other bar staff that I could make out chatting whilst customers waited. Then after waiting 10-12min with the one staff member still serving the original customer, another barman finally joined, only to pick 1st customer on entering behind counter, ignoring all customers who had been waiting much longer. Having worked in the bar trade myself for years, this is just poor craft. At least ask who’s next, and make an attempt to determine same or better yet ask the barman who had been serving. Once this happened my companion and I left. Shame have been drinking here since it 1st opened, but poor service is inexcusable in this trade and will not be visiting again any time soon.

Turned up pre match West Ham V Everton about 12, for a 15:00 KO and found this place for food. Was no availability for a sit down but they found me shortly afterwards and offered me a table upstairs with my son. The service was on point, we ordered a Steak M/R for my son and I had the steak pie and mash. The pie and mash was of a good standard and about right for the venue and area. £22 The steak was £26 or 28. My son wasn't happy that it was M/W vice M/R so we mentioned this to the server. They promptly offered to re do a steak for us. The 2nd steak was perfectly cooked and spot on. Although high in price but right for the area we was happy with that. Only part I've knocked down is the steak. But as I said was corrected immediately and with respect. Good venue downstairs for pre-match drinks. But if you are looking for a quiet meal use on non match days and you will do great.

We passed by here on the way to the London stadium. We also came back after as we loved the experience. The place is themed very well and looks great. The beer is classic Stratford prices so don’t expect too cheap prices. The beer was cold and crisp even when the place was packed. Still havnt eaten yet, but I will book a table one day but usally always fully booked Very nicely decorated bar, worth a visit is you are passing through

Youngs pub? What a joke 5pm on a friday not a sign of a real ale was looking forward to a pint of bitter or better still the special. Neither available just overpriced other rubbish. Decided to switch to a brandy or two. Cannot even serve it in a brandy glass, dished up in a glass more fitting for milk. Complete joke of a place.

Modern pub with rustic interior in Stratford; just out the back of the Westfield shopping centre, heading towards the stadium. Popped in here for a pint of Peroni. Good bustle for a weekday afternoon, but still tables to be had. There was also an upstairs, which was shut, but presumably comes into play of an evening. Food menu looked decent, the people opposite had a big sharing board. I’d eat that. Looked good. Also noticed platter of sliders. The Peroni was as expected and was £7.40; a perfectly respectable price to pay in London for a pint these days. In another life, I suppose this would have been a regular haunt. Or at least an occasional one anyway…. 🤔

Have to be honest and say I wasn’t sure about this one from the outside. I walked here specifically as it says you get views of the London Stadium but not sure that strictly true and I ended up having to walk to the Stadium but decided to call in on my return. Pleased I did as the inside of the pub is very nice with a modern style but still the feel of a proper traditional pub on the ground floor. Extremely busy but I found some seating on the second floor. Nice pint of Young’s and not badly priced either. Sockets to charge phones etc, plenty of screens for live sport and a lively atmosphere. Would definitely visit again if I was in the area.

The Cow has a great location and the decor inside is welcoming with a mix of agricultural barn chic, ski lodge and relaxing lounge. The barman was a little too distracted by the buxom nature of the young lady standing next to me to catch my drinks order first time around - something we both pointed out. How very "Carry on Mooing" The menu is pub fare - not gastropub but solid pub grub. That said (perhaps because of its location in Canary Wharf) it charges above the going rate for its menu which is ok but not particularly inspiring, The food was cooked well though my plaice hadn't been fully gutted (I quite like fish liver but ...) and if you're serving a ring of crushed potatoes it's better if they are side dish warm rather than salad cold. I would have sent it back but we were on a tight deadline so didn't. Service was ok but it relied heavily on you installing the pub app then adding a cord, then selecting the location, then navigating the differences between the paper and digital menus etc. The claim is that this helps "keep the conversation flowing" - breaking news, it doesn't and it was too much hassle for a non regular visitor. Overall, food OK to good, service slow and patchy, atmosphere OK but all could be so much better with some front of house attention.

We booked the Gallery area for my sister's baby shower and the space was so nice! Really nice vibes. Football was on for the guys to enjoy but not too loud or rowdy crowd. We had a wonderful time and the staff were really attentive and kind but not too overly so. Easy booking process. Had to put down £100 deposit but that was redeemable on the day or could get my deposit refunded back as long as we showed up :) Highly recommend for any little events you have. Lighting wasn't really condusive for photos especially in the charter house section but you can't have it all ;)

Had a burger here with my family recently. It was fine. The burger was fine but was £18 and not really worth the price. The beer was fine but the guy serving us was a bit unfriendly. The decor is fine but nothing special and the tables weren’t cleaned. The atmosphere was fine but there were a few drunk guys swearing loudly and it was the middle of the day and quite quiet so not really appropriate for a family. It was all just… fine. I wouldn’t say go, I wouldn’t say avoid it, it’s a 2.5 stars out of 5 kind of place. One word of advice, if it’s raining don’t sit outside even though it’s covered, as you’re going to get wet as you can see in the video….

Previously you used to get table service, and a hot meal would be delivered to you. I went there off the street in September, it had mostly changed to a buffet but the main was still an order and had veggie breakfast. This time I was staying in the attached Mercure Hotel, it was all buffet. No veggie sausages at all, no longer stocked they said because people didn’t ask for them. Most of the food in the chaffing dishes was cold. Took one bite out of the stale croissant. This is a retro looking dinner but good quality is slop from the past. Best avoided.

I went here for a business one night stop over, I stayed in the cheapest room. It was clean, tidy and had everything I needed. Because it was the cheapest the room was quire small and I wouldn't want to stay in the for more than a couple of nights. Good location for theatres etc. Didn't eat in the restaurant or bars but they looked very nice. Would stay here again for work
