Lovey little pub!
Really cute pub rooms decorated lovely! Didn’t realise it was shared toilets and showrooms when we booked but both toilets were clean and didn’t see the other guests! And nice outside courtyard to sit in

Room was uniquely decorated and service was friendly. Shared bathrooms were clean, the carpets were more doubtful. Mattress could use an upgrade. WiFi did not work during the length of our stay. Entrance a bit depressing.

Lovely bed and breakfast. Room was clean and absolutely loved the decor. Staff were super friendly and host was very welcoming. Easy access to transport. Just a shame we were in and out due to a show as would’ve loved to have had dinner there as have read great reviews on the food.

Absolutely fantastic stay. Lovely room. Bathroom is separate to the room, but not an issue, just be aware of this. Room is over a superb pub that serves food, has live music etc.

Great value, great people and a great find!
We stayed at The Angel of Bow last night and such great value for money. The room was clean and well kept and the shared shower room, bathroom and toilet were spot on. The pub itself has a great selection of beers and gins so it was perfect. Not far from the DLR either, we'd definitely stay again!

THE MOST COMFORTABLE BED i HAVE EVER SLEPT IN
Easy to find, this east london pub did exactly what it said on the tin, room was clean and spacious, access to toilets and shower easy to find and the added bonus of a free conti breakfast was very welcome.
The bed was soooo comfortable - will stay again, thank you
