Good Beer Guide pub in Stoke Newington.
The menus on their website look pretty good; a number of fish dishes as well as five kinds of sausage (including pheasant!). It sounds like the pies are of the "stew in a china dish with a piece of puff pastry floating on top" kind, though. Vegetarians look to be relatively poorly served, with a choice of veggie burger, veggie sausages, or veggie faux pie, although a review suggests that the daily specials may make up for this. Food is served 4pm-9:30pm Mon-Fri and noon-7:30pm Sat-Sun.
The Time Out review suggests that the beer garden is rather small. However, checking with the pub via email reveals that (as of July 2007) it's being redesigned to include a canopied smoking area.
