Good to know

  • Lunch only: it shuts at about 14:00 on weekdays and is closed on Sunday (Google hours).
  • Pie, mash and liquor; jellied eels if you want the full old order.
  • Eat it the cockney way: fork and spoon, never a knife; flip the pie, cut the bottom open and shake in chilli vinegar, then salt and white pepper (James Dimitri, 2025).
