Hackney chitter-chatter &tc

I don't know why I keep posting about this pub but here you go. :D


Interesting history. I was one of those partygoers in the early 00's :)

Just to change into my Brummie hat and correct a misstatement in the text on the Hackney Wick area - plastic/ parkesine was actually invented in Birmingham by Parks who lived there - however it was first produced in the Wick.

Brummies coming down here and taking credit😅
 
Looks busy in the Wick right now...


I did end up walking there #youarenotmymother etc . Walked along the Lea to the Olympics & then crossed over to Hackney Wick. The Wick is like a club/festival atm , music pumping out from several venues . The Lord Napier was open , fairly busy , and full of young people enjoying the music , so I swerved it. I carried on walking and got the train from Hackney Wick Station (the music can be heard from the platform) and I headed for a quieter drink at The Hackney Tap.

#iamverydisappointed :D

yeah it’s hopping there at the weekends. Good vibes.
 
I’ll have to give it a go as well. The guy who has taken it on is also owner of the Star of Bethnal Green which has been ok when I’ve been in there a few times. He also puts on a street party once a year.
And he owns The Star by Hackney Downs , and the one in Kings Cross (York Way) .
