The Castle, Walthamstow

The previous reviews are a joke. It's obviously a disgruntled member of staff. No mention of the new garden that looks like a shot out of a glossy interior design magazine? The food is fantastic and the pub is by far the most friendly no attitude pub in Walthamstow. I have been going to The Castle for a year now and the transformation has been vast. Ross and Ria have constantly upgraded every aspect of the place over the year - so much for 'only in it for the money'. I have now become a friend of Ross and Ria and I wish them luck. It was a brave decision taking on a pub in this economic climate and they've created a great addition to the village.

The Castle, Walthamstow

On arrival at the Castle last night, I noticed the owner Ross talking to another customer with great enthusiasm about the NEW Fillet Steak he had just added to the menu, replacing the Rump Steak he wasn�t happy with. As he handed us a revised menu, I questioned him about the new addition, I was told with excitement that he had just tasted the new fillet and believes it is one of the finest steaks he has ever eaten, anyone choosing this dish should be prepared to be impressed. I decided to take him up on the challenge. �15.95 for an 8oz Steak with chips and salad sounded like a good price. WOW, I�m glad I did, this was a fantastic meal. I asked for the Steak medium rare and it was cooked to perfection. The quality of the meat was sublime and the home made chips were great. The Castle now has a big fan in me, I will be telling all my friends about it. I�m looking forward to trying the rest of the menu, I�ve heard the roast is also fantastic, see you sunday.
