The best restaurants serving British food in Blackwall and Cubitt Town Tower Hamlets London

The name marks this restaurant out from the ordinary run of Italians, pointing rather to the raw materials of a cuisine that is well designed and executed. So it is on the menu too, and there is an attractive map of the provenance of ingredients from around the UK. There are also fun cocktails, and a well chosen wine list. Service is cheerful and attentive - this was on a less than busy evening.

We ordered delivery and it was terrible. Out of 5 bagels, we received only 3! The salt beef is actually spicy beef. Why? Nobody does it like this! You can do things your own way, but please write it in the description! We don't eat spicy, se we ended up with only one edible bagel!

I had pre-booked and paid a deposit for the Christmas Day set menu for three people, totaling £240.00. I am shocked and disheartened by the complete lack of festive atmosphere upon our arrival. There were no decorations or any effort to create a Christmas-themed environment. Upon arrival, we were directed to a table that had not been set. There were no glasses, cutlery, napkins, or menus in place. Despite being seated promptly, 30 minutes passed without anyone approaching our table to take a drinks order. It was only after I personally approached the floor manager that we were finally acknowledged. Notably, the restaurant was far from busy, so lack of staff or being overwhelmed cannot be considered a valid excuse. They informed us that the Christmas Day dinner service had concluded, encouraging us to order from the À la Carte menu instead. After expressing significant displeasure and presenting the email confirmation of our booking and pre-order, the manager reluctantly agreed to honor our booking. However, the experience continued to deteriorate. The starters, which included two duck salads and one prawn salad, arrived without any dressing, leaving them dry. The dessert course consisted of two pieces of dry cheese that had clearly been left unrefrigerated, served with a sparse and uninspired salad. Furthermore, the menu had mentioned pickled walnuts as part of the dish, but these were completely absent. I attempted to raise my concerns on the day, but unfortunately, my complaints seemed to fall on deaf ears. I also raised a complaint via email but unfortunately was not taken seriously and deemed that this did not deserve a response. I encourage you to avoid making dinner reservations here if you are looking for a pleasant evening. I would only suggest making this your last choice.

Lovely staff kind and polite and the food is yummy my kids really enjoyed it and finished their plates I had the farmers breakfast was really good thank you ☺️

It's not a busy pub, but it's good for a business catch-up and other convo

Llegamos a un bar vacío y se nos pidió inmediatamente el pago completo. Bastante bien. Caminó a través de un bar cálido, en un pasillo cálido y luego entró en un dormitorio frío. Nos dijeron que podíamos poner radiadores si queríamos. ¿Por qué no iban a ponernos los radiadores, sabían que íbamos a venir... aunque fuera bajo, es diciembre? A continuación leemos una nota diciendo que la cocina está cerrada. Habíamos pagado por alojamiento y desayuno. Nos dijeron que recibiríamos un reembolso. ¿Por qué no darnos el descuento cuando pagamos? El descuento fue del 10% de descuento de 185 £. Un inglés completo cuesta £ 14 y el café £ 3. 30, así que cubrió un desayuno, pero nos dieron 2 bebidas gratis en el bar, así que estaba cubierto. Salimos a explorar, Greenwich está justo al otro lado del río y se puede caminar allí a través de un túnel a pie. Eso es genial. Greenwich es genial y hay mucho que hacer. No hay mucho alrededor de Watermans Arms. La señora polaca que trabajaba detrás de la barra por la noche era brillante y muy servicial. Olvidé su nombre, lo siento. Nuestra habitación era grande y limpio. Cama en realidad muy cómoda y ducha excelente. Hemos tenido un gran viaje, solo algunos pequeños problemas que eran molestos cuando pagas mucho dinero. No volveremos con los watermans, pero sin duda volveremos a Greenwich.

Visited this cafe a few times whilst working in Crossharbour. The food is always a pretty decent standard and the coffees are nice. The prices seem to be creeping up quite a lot, but the cafe is always busy and sometimes it’s a struggle for a table, so good luck to them

🚇 Crossharbour 🍺 £6.65 Cruzcampo The George is located in the heart of the Isle of Dogs close to Millwall docks. The nearest station is Crossharbour on the DLR. The pub was originally built in 1864, the pub you see today was built in 1932 for Watney Combe Reid. This is a traditionally decorated pub that has retained its original three bars. The Public Bar is located on the right and has beautiful wall panelling, comfy banquettes, a dartboard and elegant bar-back behind a solid looking servery. In between the Public and Saloon Bar is a snug called Ma Baker's, apparently it is named after a regular at the pub. To the left is a spacious Saloon Bar which leads to a conservatory for diners. At the rear of the pub is a good size beer garden with ample seating. There are some lovely features throughout the pub, the walls are covered in old photos that celebrate the proud history of the Island, branded Britannia tables plus there’s a proper pub carpet running throughout. The beer line up will please most and offers a selection of well known beers and cask ale. I decided on a Cruzcampo, my pint was excellent, price point was a little pricey. The food menu offers hearty portioned pub classics, Fish & Chips costs £14.49, Roasts are available on a Sunday. We arrived just after 12pm on a windy Saturday lunchtime in October, the pub was fairly quiet as it had long opened. There were three locals in attendance to watch the early kick off which was showing on the many screens dotted around the pub. There is a nice local pub feel here, settling in was very easy. The service was great, the team members on duty were upbeat and welcoming. We loved it here, @thegeorgeisleofdogs is a traditional pub that ticks all the boxes. The decor, the setting and local pub atmosphere made for a superb experience. A special thanks to @booze_house_tales who lives on the Island, he was kind enough to show my Brother and I around the landmarks and pubs of the Isle of Dogs. 📅 12th October 2024 More London Pub info @londonpubmap 🍻
