The Old Ship, Hackney

The Old Ship has recently undergone a complete refurbishment which I have seen happen over the last couple of months as its my local. It USED to be a total dive with shabby sofas, disinterested staff and very limited wine/beers on offer. Now it is completely different - really vibrant decor - white leather sofas, roses on the wall, chandliers (totally works), great staff, excellent wine list etc and really good gastro pub food. Can't recommend it highly enough - go and see for yourself. JT40
