I had no expectations when I arrived at the playful and hip Star by Hackney Downs on a Sunday afternoon.

There’s not a shred of pretension, the food is delicious – think big, tasty portions of classic pub grub – and the private room upstairs was a perfect spot for our terrible trio to run riot while we huddled around the mammoth dining table and tucked into our roasts.

It’s gritty, arty, and rough around the edges – check it out… I really want some light fittings like this… This is the door to the private dining room – LOVE it.

Next door, this is the opening to the smaller private room – a bit like a secret living room… And the wallpaper along the main corridor is awesome… All a little bit piddly and loving our life, we headed downstairs where the turntables were playing some laid-back reggae and the bar stools were filling up for some last-minute Sunday boozing.

If you’re looking for an East End pub that’s characterful, cheerful, plays great tunes and doesn’t look down at you for bringing in a hoard of kids, the Star by Hackney Downs is a winner.

Great night, great music.

The only thing that let the experience down was the lack of chef's meaning that we were unable to order any food for 1.5 hours.

I felt sorry for the chef who I believe was on his own to cater not only to ourselves and the other booked tables in the downstairs bar but a party of people upstairs.

Half of our group left the bar to go down the road to buy food as we were told we could not order for so long.

Other than this, everyone had a great night.
