The Angel of Bow Public HouseB+

171 Devons Rd, Bow, London E3 3QX · Pub, Gastropub · Bow Common

A lively community gastropub for roasts, drag brunches, and solid pints, but lodging has shared bathrooms and inconsistent housekeeping—come for food and events, think twice before booking rooms.

The verdict

The Angel of Bow delivers solid neighborhood gastropub dining anchored by strong food quality—particularly standout Sunday roasts and reliable fish and chips—paired with genuinely attentive service that keeps guests engaged. However, inconsistent execution on items like burger doneness and occasional carvery logistics friction prevent the grade from climbing higher, while the neighborhood charm appeals to locals rather than drawing destination traffic. The result is a welcoming, well-executed pub that excels at what it does without reaching the distinction of the area's premier dining establishments.

One caveat: Lodging reviews report shared bathrooms, variable cleanliness, and weak communication for late check-in
