The 30 Best Pub in Ilford

“Lovely little wine bar and restaurant. Great service and atmosphere provided by very personable staff. They have an amazing selection of wines. A refreshing vibe to the area, where you can really relax and enjoy your drink. Will definately be going back.”

“Good sports bar with several large screens, pool table, and very close yo station.”

“The food here was absolutely top notch everything was full of flavour. My favourite was the Lahmacun & Adana Kofte soft, juicy and meaty just the way it should be. The Lahmacun was thin and filled with toppings. Everything here was really enjoyable and it’s the perfect spot if you need a Turkish and wanna go with the family.”

“Murad was amazing!!! He worked the whole floor by himself and still made us feel comfortable and looked after. He was took our order with a smile and explained any questions we had about the menu. All in all fantastic experience and food made extra special by Murad. Thank u Murad xx”

“I was Dubious about dining here after reading some of the reviews about management/staff But must confirm the place was amazing! We booked a table for 20:15, arrived at 20:10 and was seated at 20:15 our waitress took our drinks order and advised on some wine. She promptly returned with the drinks poured the wine and we ordered starters. Within minutes they was on our table. The main meal we was not sure about as the menu had some very nice sounding dishes. The order was placed and when they arrived at the table we all said WOW they was all presented well and looked devine. Our wine glasses topped up and we tucked in... the food was 1st class it really did taste delicious! The table was cleared and deserted ordered again fantastic! Very tasty. Would have loved a coffee but I was full. So to sum up the staff where professional, the food and deserts amazing! Can't wait to return to sample the menu.”

“Snooker and pool tables (only 1 american pool table, the others are English pool) Tables can be booked if you call up. Drinks available onsite, staff don't mind you bringing food in as currently not serving food”

“Really enjoyed this place. The vibe is chill, the food and drinks were good, and the shisha was smooth with great flavor. Staff were friendly and made us feel comfortable. Perfect spot to relax with friends — I’ll definitely be back.”

“Proper boozer with great guest beers! This is a real locals pub”

“Great food, nice atmosphere. Real quality shisha and the staff were very nice. Food portins are good,filling, and large. Had the nachos, chilli cheese fries and a pizza which ended up being too much in terms of our expectations of portion size but it was tasty and we got to go boxes. The shisha was very well presented and high quality. Tasted great and went down nicely with the drinks. £95 for 2 shisha, 4 cocktails, Chill Cheese fries, cheese nachos and a 15" pizza split in 2 was the spend. Will return.”

“Had a nice meal here for my Aunts birthday. It was quite busy but not noisy. The fixed price lunch menu was good value. The a la carte looked a bit pricey! I had the ribs my aunt had the salmon. We were served by the delightful Alissa and really enjoyed the food and the ambience. Recommended.”

“Evya Turkish Grill & Meze Bar is a fantastic spot for anyone craving authentic Turkish flavors. The food is delicious, with a great variety of grilled meats, fresh meze, and flavorful dishes that taste as good as they look. The service is outstanding; the staff are attentive, friendly, and quick to make you feel welcome. The decor adds to the experience with a warm, inviting ambiance and tasteful Turkish touches that make the space feel cozy yet stylish. On top of all that, the prices are very reasonable, making it a great value for the quality and service provided. Highly recommend for a delightful dining experience!”

“We had my sons 18th party here, have to say was the best night, couldn't fault the staff, customer service was 100% and the management staff, Saiorse and Tracy went above and beyond to make sure everything went well, notting was to much trouble and I can't thank them enough for making it a special time for my son. Would 100% recommend this place for events. The staff and management are amazing. Thank you so much guys. Looking forward to going again.”

“I only discovered this place like a month ago even though it's in my neighborhood. Nice lounge to visit. Music here is amazing. The people and vibes are on a different scale. The average age of people who visit here at night would be about 30. Such lovely ambience too. I've never been there during the day but the nights I've been here have been awesome. I've enjoyed myself the 2 times I've been here now and I look forward to visiting again.”

“Had such a wonderful time here today, it was our first time. We enjoyed the Sunday buffet. We had our kids with us too and they loved the pasta. Food was delicious, they had live music playing and the overall atmosphere was great. Incredible value too thanks again we'll be back! X”

“The best grill food ever in Redbridge! I get food from here every week, even though there are loads of other places in Gants Hill. All the brothers who work there are amazing – well-behaved, hardworking, and always smiling. The food is top quality, and the service makes the experience even better. Highly recommended!”

“Wonderful place to chill around with friends.”

“Came here for drinks with family and friends later jist before christmas- great drinks and atmosphere, food looked delicious but I never ate anything but my cousin said it was very good pub food. Second time around coming here, will definitely come back when back in town again! Great local spot!”

“Superlative Ambience atmosphere qnd Genuine Aromatic Thai Food. Everything is 100% tasty and Halal. Service is excellent and Noodles are just right. Prawn need careful cooking not to get chewy and chef was careful. And succulent beef was wow. Amazing. Full Marks.”

“Fantastic Service from Rafaela Today! I stopped by Old Maypole today and was genuinely impressed with the service Rafaela provided. She was welcoming from the moment I walked in and helped me with exactly what I needed. Her attention to detail and friendly attitude made the visit so much smoother. Truly top-notch service—thank you, Rafaela!”

“Been going here since I went to school 25 years ago. Very friendly people and the best chips around. Their chilli sauce is awesome too.”

“We just celebrated my son's 18th Bday here. We been living in this neighbourhood for over a decade and we never visited the pub as it had a bad reputation but since new management took over and the pub been refurbished it looks truly amazing. Great food menu. Great affordable variety of drinks. The service is impeccable and very friendly staff. My husband is a wheelchair user, the pub has wheelchair access but you got to put the foldable ramp down yourself what didn't bother us as we do that daily at home anyway. Overall a 5* pub very clean and tidy... And they do karaoke on Thursdays aswell. A place I highly recommend.”

“Excellent venue for birthdays, parties of all events. You'll have such a great time, the DJ is amazing, the Vibes and music is awesome. Me and my girls will be partying every chance we get as we cannot get enough. Even the entrance and toilets are clean and on point. The security and bartenders and all the staff there, are amazing. There's parking either outside or at a car park not too far from the venue and it's free. An experience you'll never forget, go and see xx”
