Where is the Best Sunday Roast in Hackney?
This question came from JohnBr0 on twitter today:
Can any one recommend a decent east london boozer that does amazing Sunday roasts? #eastlondon #food #pub

I thought I’d share the responses:
@LondOntheInside : Prince Arthur Scolt Head Old Ship
kerryjeanlister : Daniel Defoe – Stokey
@yeahHackney : The Kenton
@alextea : Prince Arthur
elDamo : Jolly Butchers Stoke
Newingtonshinypouch : The Marksman on Hackney Rd is the best I’ve tried for a Sunday Roast.
@MartinMcCallion : The Old Ship next to the Empire.
Anyone have any others to add?

Its already been recommended but I’d have to put it forward again The Kenton does a blinding roast at a decent price and big portions. Get there early though to avoid disappointment and to get a seat as the word is out ๐

Will have to try out The Kenton and The Marksman.

Clapton Hart! Good for meat-ers and veggies, only problem is it usually sells out by 3pm…

@franny thanks for the add, I have heard they sell out quickly.
The Dead Dolls club in Hoxton square have a Sunday roast focussed on a different meat every week. http://www.thedollshouse.org/Dolls_House/sunday_roast.html

@ewebber I don’t actually have many recs! On Sundays I usually grab street food from Chatsworth Road and cook something low and slow myself ๐
