   Sunday Lunch late Sep 24- Andy and team were exemplary. The food arrive promptly and the staff are welcoming and happy and top service. They live the vibe on the board about talking and love ! The food was ample and hot and tasty. Veggie options and meat for Sunday Lunch. The crunchiest potatoes I've had ever! Book ahead. The tables are small so be prepared to get friendly!

   Well this review is after my second visit. The first visit was not great but the cultivation of the new menus and different members of staff made the second visit worth while. The member of staff who made our evening was Andy. His delivery of the menu was first class and his personality was a perfect blend of funny and attentive. The food we had was the new menus appetisers, and they were fabulous. The smoked mozzarella sticks were to die for and the crab arancini was delicious. A place that is built on service and when it’s good, it’s really good!!

   I’ve been to the Plough quite a few times over a couple of years. It’s a nice pub, the staff are friendly and they have a cocktail menu and decent draught selection. They have screens for the sports lovers and there are guest chefs now and again mixing up their menu. I’ve never been to their basement club but they do have one! And their roast is really nice!

   Nice little place, friendly bartender, very good food. We had fish'n'chips with garden peas - the fish was big and delicious! Thanks, greetings from Germany!

   Amazing local pub, we love visiting here - such friendly vibes and so cozy on a Sunday afternoon. Nice to watch the odd football match here too. The roasts are amazing and so is the ever changing menu. Yesterday I wasn't drinking and they gave me a pint of blackcurrant soda on the house - whereas in most other London pubs they'll charge you a couple of quid - I was chuffed!

   I've never received such a cold, unfriendly welcome in a pub in my entire life, least of all in Hackney which is one of the most vibrant, warm places in London (and replete with great pubs, bar this one). First & foremost, we turned up at about 12:40pm and the place was shut despite advertised opening hours being from midday. Instead of bothering herself to come to the door to advise when the place would be open, a rather miserable lady simply mouthed 'not open yet' from the bar. We then had to walk aimlessly in the area to kill time until the door was finally unlocked. When we walked in, no one greeted us, even when I went up to the bar to order. The lady working didn't even bother to look at me. This was very rude and made me feel very unwelcome. When she did open her mouth she was unfriendly and, frankly, quite weird. We almost left the place but my boyfriend suggested we persevere. And what a shame that we did: the Sunday roast that materialised was just poor; the beef was as tough as old boots and a cut of exceptionally low quality. When our plates were cleared, another slightly weird staff member, this time male, asked if we had enjoyed the food, to which I responded 'not really - to be honest, the beef was very, very tough'. To my disbelief, he pulled a face and said 'oh, was it?' before walking off. We left as quickly as we possibly could and I wouldn't dream of coming back: this was actually my second attempt at Sunday lunch here (the first time they'd ran out of most of the menu) and there will not be a third, despite this pub being the closest to my home. So very disappointing.

   Only pub in London where you feel really cold even if there are 100 people inside. Whatever happened to the heating? You need to pay attention. I have seen at least 20 people with their coats on, this is not a good sign and should not be ignored. The kitchen deserves compliments though, your care with food preparation is clear and appreciated.

   Really tasty roast with lots of veggies and homemade Yorkshire puddings, and very sweet staff! They accidentally gave me a small portion and comped my meal for the inconvenience, along with bringing me some extra food, which wasn’t necessary but greatly appreciated! Lovely spot for a Sunday lunch.
