The bare brick walls, bay window, robust wooden tables and quirky crockery in the dining-room provide the backdrop for a procession of quality gastropub fare like Pan-Fried Sea Bass Fillet with Coconut Croquettes and Sweet Potato Gnocchi with Spiced Pork Shoulder. The Veggie Menu includes Curried Lentil Fritters with Cucumber & Mint Yoghurt as part of its three tapas for £10.50 deal. Always check the specials boards as they like to innovate here. Craft beer fans should make a beeline for the Whitewater Barking Brew on draught.
