You need to know what this is, and isn’t. Although a simple breakfast is put on a tray outside your room, it would be a stretch to call it a B&B - the room was spacious and nicely decorated and furnished. The rooms are accessed from a side gate and yard into the back of the pub building but effectively they are separate from the pub. The rooms share three facilities - a shower room, a bathroom with sink and toilet and a toilet with a sink. All nicely presented and clean. The Angel of Bow pub is funky and pleasant - every member of staff we encountered was friendly. But the rooms to all intents and purposes are unstaffed. Our issues were that the mattress was incredibly soft to the extent that it led to uncomfortable nights. And the noise from the main road directly outside the pub was fairly considerable. Ultimately we’re glad we tried this - there is lots to commend but we’ll probably try somewhere else next time we’re in the area.

A very beautiful accommodation in a very good community. Staff were very helpful, transport links were good. Breakfast was different but good different. Tea and coffee facilities included a coffee machine with capsules which was a nice touch. The decor was very boutique and made the room look striking and pleasant. Definitely worth every penny I paid and I would recommend this accommodation. Congratulations to the owners, they have something very good.

Good location for the London Stadium, Great little pub and very quirky. Didn't realise it was a shared bathroom, but not really a problem. One thing I would suggest is new mattresses, ours was very soft!!

Nice place
Bed was a bit soft. Nice quirky room and decoration. Bit mean with the teabags (only 1 in the room). Not too obvious when booking that it was a shared bathroom. It is mentioned but I'd expect it to be clearer. Food in pub was great. Continental breakfast was interesting. Used as close enough to ABBA Voyage and transfers were easy. Would happily come back.

Good up and coming property. Rooms had a lot of space. Needs improvement in coffee area. But has a fridge and a fan, which is always a great inclusion in the room.

I loved the old artistic decoration and flowers growing in backyard. The Pub served great food. Staff were exceptionally friendly and nice hospitality. What i did not realize I was too old for carrying my luggage on narrow steps; going out of room to bathroom or showering. I am done with college dorm lifestyle for my own safety of a possible fall downwards with my big feet on narrow steps. Sorry!

Great location for a gig at the Troxy. Although we were concerned about the shared toilet and shower facilities having read previous feedback it was no problem at all. Staff all really friendly and helpful. Sadly we didn’t have time to have a meal but all the food we saw looked great.

Very quirky and all right for 1 night. The radiator didn't work in one of the rooms and no one to report it to. A noisy location and no soundproofing.

It was a very nice place to stay for 125 pounds a night. The only thing I didn’t realize is the bathroom and shower is not in your room. This is not something I’m accustomed to. Michael was a dear who works downstairs in the kitchen. Cheers

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.
