The Adam & Eve

🚇 Homerton 🍺 £6.00 Cruzcampo The Adam & Eve is located on Homerton High Street in Hackney, East London. The nearest station is Homerton which is on the newly named Mildmay line. This pub has a history dating back to 1735, the pub you see today was built in 1915. This is an absolutely stunning building, the architecture is striking with detailed stonework which creates an imposing facade. This is a sizeable traditionally decorated pub which retains many original period features. The servery is centrally located with adjoining bars forming a “U shape around it. The right hand side of the pub has a long bar with a pool table sat at the back. There is a larger bar to the left which has a raised seating area with beautiful stained glass panels. At the back of the pub is another space with cosy banquettes and an “L” shaped pool table which is a rare find. At the rear of the pub is a beer garden which has a tropical feel. Everywhere you look around this pub there are amazing features like the leaded window partition, stained glass, period fireplaces, stunning ceiling, huge mirrors and swathes of detailed woodwork. The beer selection was solid and offers familiar mainstays, London brews and cask ales. I kept it simple and ordered a Cruzcampo, my pint was great, price point was average. At the time of visiting the food menu was Hot Dogs and Subs. There is a new kitchen residency @essi.restaurant which serves up traditional Greek cuisine plus roasts on a Sunday. We arrived just after 12pm on a humid Saturday lunchtime in August. The pub was quiet at first, but soon started filling up with punters eager to catch the start of the Arsenal v Brighton midday Prem match. By the time we left at halftime, the pub was packed with a predominantly younger crowd. The service was friendly and welcoming, the chap who served us was pleasant and courteous. Well, what a cracking pub @theadamandevee9 is. I absolutely loved the architecture, the traditional and interesting decor, the beer was on point and the hospitality first class. I left here with a big smile, what a boozer! 📅 31st August 2024 More London Pub info @londonpubmap 🍻

As others have said, the food used to be good but now it's a joke. My "main" was a single aubergine costing £14.50. Two of us had to go straight to another restaurant after our meals because the servings were that small. That said it's a decent place to watch football - just avoid the food at all costs.

Great food, shame the staff left their manners in the kitchen. Paid £20 for the chicken roast—tasty, no complaints there. But when I dared to ask if the beef was available, the bar staff looked at me like I’d committed a crime against the menu. God forbid a customer ask a question. Most places might show a hint of curiosity or, I don’t know, basic politeness. Not here. Apparently, £20 buys you a decent meal and a side of attitude.
