Seek out a pre-curry ale

Sure, this one could probably be classed as a 'filler', but The Pride of Spitalfields, a short distance east of Brick Lane, is a traditional East End boozer, in a handy position just a short walk from Brick Lane.


Subject to a 'minor' petrol bomb attack in 2003, it is otherwise a fairly unremarkable pub which attracts an interesting mix of locals and trendies but, considering its position, maintains its atmosphere well.
