The whole team had booked a while ago for our Christmas finale lunch (which we were really looking forward to as it’s our local ) only to be told on the day (today) that they had just had a booking for a much larger party and they wouldn’t be serving any food as a result.On priciple getting lunch-gazumped by the restaurant itself is really poor and whilst I understand that they’re a business and they have to make money the Owl & the Pussycat team have chosen not to honour a pre-arranged booking so why would we ever book again? Luckily there are loads of options locally so hopefully we’ll find something for a party of 9?
Not a bad local boozer even if it has been taken over by Geronimo Inns. They have fixed upstairs so it’s more comfortable. It even has a decent cocktail offering. Our favourite back ‘garden’ is still there which is great in the summer if you can stand the intensity of smoke fumes. A mixed crowd of local retail workers and office types frequent the space, get in early to grab a seat. Bar food is not the best, was mostly cold and felt like it was cooked from frozen, but a good selection of beers on tap and wine makes up for it. cookandpour.co.uk
A typical bar with their beers on tap. I think to really add value to these reviews, I need to start keep track of the names of the beers and try 3-4 different ones.In any case, busy place with not too much sitting space. Found ourselves here ‘cos Dishoom had a long queue outside.
Really lovely atmosphere, exceptionally friendly, accommodating staff. Starters are gigantic and tasty, and although the main course involved a slight wait, it was absolutely delicious. Well worth many more visits.
Who knew such a lovely little proper pub existed so close to Shoreditch? Well, quite a few people, evidently, as it was pretty busy in The Owl and the Pussycat and it was only a Wednesday. I heard about this place through Secret London and popped it on the List. I was going to Deviation at Concrete which is just around the corner so thought this would be an ideal place for a couple of drinks first. This place goes in for big communal tables that you have to try to nab a place at, ending up potentially sharing with another group or two. The pub itself is quite small but it has a sizeable (heated) courtyard at the back to squeeze some more people in, and it has a separate restaurant upstairs for people who just want to eat. Prices were quite reasonable. A normal-sized (ie not the 250ml bucket) of wine was under 4.00 which is becoming increasingly rare these days. The crowd was pretty typical hipster I dont think there was a single girl in there without a flat fringe- and it was mostly groups of people. But the pubs low lighting and woody dcor also made it quite a romantic pub (I think the poetic name helps) and I can imagine going with my boyfriend for a few drinks together and some tasty sounding bar snacks ducks egg, chorizo and garlic frites, mmmm! jaminaward.wixsite.com
Yum. Popped in for dinner last night and loved it. Upstairs had a fantastic menu and thee downstairs pub had a really buzzy vibe. Would go back again!
