"For A Proper East Londoner Once upon a time this little Spitalfields boozer would present free roast potatoes on its bar for punters to snack on. This old-school tradition is rarely seen nowadays, but it gives you an idea of the kind of pub The Pride Of Spitalfields is. It’s a carpeted bungalow-type space that has no interest in changing. Unlike much of the area around it, this is a drinking hole of the most traditional variety. City boys, labourers, and old dears alike will spill out on to the pavement." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, sinead cranna
