Wetherspoons 
This place is the home of cheap drinks and cocktails, in true Wetherspoons fashion the food isn't great but the beers cheap so I'm not complaining to much!

Main Road 
Set just off the High Street on the corner of Barking Road this is another place thats quiet in the week but gets busy when West Ham are at home, some cheap food and drinks deals get people in during the week, no real atmosphere.

Sport 
One of the places in East Ham to watch football, and anything else on sky or setanta, named after the local football team you'll find lots of West Ham fans in here on a saturday also.

Review of The White Horse

Kids 
A lot of the younger community go in here, and therefore it gets a bit of a rough reputation, personally I don't mind it, think its quite nice, and good for a cheap pint on the walk home from the tube station.

Tube 
Walk out of the tube station and its on your left you can't miss it, an old pub thats the heart of East Ham. Busy at weekends and on West Ham home games as its just one tube stop away.

Dark 
A small dark, seedy looking club banging out a bit od r n b and some good old skool anthems. The thing that does shock me though its it opens at midday on a saturday and starts its music then, bizarre!

Hulk 
I thought by the name that maybe the incredible hulk owned this place, but he doesn't! A short walk from East Ham tube station you see a few people in here, but not many. A good pint.

Bizarre 
This place is quiet in the week so its nice to see it pick up at the weekend, showing live sport obviously helps, and its only 1 tube ride, or 15 minutes walk from Upton Park so lots of West Ham fans come in here.

Local 
This is just a short walk from home for me, so I can be seen in here with a few old school mates occasionally, a little trashy and dirty, but you're in the east end so what isn't.

Review of ICA Bar
21 May 08, 12:00
Culture 
A bar with a bit of culture, set in a nice location, and very popular, however it is quite pricey and a bit of a walk form both Charing Croos and Embankment tube stations.

Review of The Morpeth Arms
21 May 08, 11:31
Pub 
Nothing flash or fancy this is just a typical English pub serving honest food, a good choice of real ales and some nice lagers, that to be honest are mainly German or Belgian! Worth a visit, just a short walk from the Thames.

Location 
Located off the old Charing Cross Road, this has a superrb location but doesn't make the most of it. It could do with a bit of a refurb and a chanfe of the beers, fosters is not the way forward.

Review of Milk and Honey
21 May 08, 10:50
Food 
The food here used to be superb, the standard really seems to have dropped over the past 6 months. We used to head in here after work every few weeks and have a bite to eat, but the food got the bad we decided to go elsewhere. I hope that it gets better again cos its a really nice pub with a great vibe.

Lick Of Paint 
This place was all the rage a couple of years ago, now it needs a lick of paint, and a few little changes need to be made to bring it back up to its old high standards.

Live Music 
A classy venue for some live music, but not much of an atmosphere, or one of the places I often frequent. Be prepared to queue to get in at weekend.

Jugs 
The place to go to see lots of jugs, big ones, small ones, full and empty ones. Thats because this is one of the places to go for some awesoem cocktails. Try it on a night out with friends.

Party Time 
If you're looking for a quiet drink this isnt' the best place to go as the music is often a little load, however if you're lookign for a weekend boogie then head in here, a really good atmosphere, and an infectious party fever that you'll really wanna be part of.

Tourist 
This is tourist heaven, a very nice pub from the popular Trafalgar Square attractions, its always busy, hard to find a table and you wait ages to get served, so be prepared to stand around for a while.

Review of Domino's Pizza
21 May 08, 06:05
Slow 
These guys are so slow, it takes ages for thwm to cook your pizza, you'll wait in store for about half an hour and if you want delivery it takes about 45 minutes, hence the reason they stopped the if its not with you in half an hour its free promotion, cos it would have cost them loads.

Takeaway 
A good pizza takeaway, also serving southern fried chicken, a great selection of toppings and spices to put on and very competitevely priced. Busy when West Ham are at home as its just up the road, so i wind all their fans up by wearing my Gunners shirt and they hate it!

Grilled 
Although most of the food they sell is unhealthy, the fact its all grilled, apart from the chips, it makes it a little healthier, good service and tasty kebabs.

Chili's 
These guys cut up chili's and put it in all there food, if you love your hot and spicy, like me, then you'll love it in here, if you don't then tell them no chili's before you order cos it'll blow your head off.

Hungry? 
If you're a little peckish, pop in and grab a bite to eat, the food isn't great but it is filling, and if you have an orange juice with you're mea; its part of your five a day.

Review of The Famous Pub
20 May 08, 10:53
Famous? 
Think thats a bit misleading, I've never known this place to be famous, never seen a famous face in there either, but it pulls in the punters so its a great markleting ploy.

Review of Fulham Football Club
20 May 08, 10:21
Rubbish Fans 
This is the only place I've been to thats quieter than Arsenals home ground. The fans seem to think its a chore to watch this lot, and to be honest the team aren't exactly inspiring. A small stadium on the side of the Thames, that somehow wuill be showing Premier League football next year.

Greasy 
Yeah football days are the only time I go greasy, some delicious fatty food, which has probably sat there for hours, cooking in its own fat. You can't beat it.

A nice mail order place, but the only problem is you can't try before you buy, so lots of people pay a little extra and go elsewhere.

Review of Designer Warehouse Sales

Shops like this should never be allowed to oopen, some designer goods that weren't good enough to make it to the decent stores. Scavangers go in here hunting for bargains.

Give Give Give 
These people expect you to give give give, whether it be take your old stuff in or just hand over money. I don't mind buying something if I see something useful, but I'm not just gonna throw my money away.

Not far from the Strand this is both popualr and busy, but I don't go in, you sit around for ages to get a booth then by the time you get in you've realised you were meant to be in a global warming meeting ten minutes ago.

Mind The Gap 
If you're looking to prove you've been to London then head in here, a huge gift shop with Mind the Gap tube t shirts and great british bears, and queen masks, they're ugly, and kinda pointless I think, but its a place for tourists to go.
