“The rooftop garden, source for the pub's produce and boasting city views, stands out; inside, the curated drinks from local brewers and winemakers feel special. Rooms are well-designed with local art, but some may find the bathroom layout a bit unconventional. It's a convivial base for exploring the East End.”
