Historical version 13 of Pembury Tavern, E8 1JH (view current version)

Good Beer Guide pub in Hackney.

Geek-friendly landlord, good food, free wireless access. Was non-smoking even before the ban.

16 hand pumps, typically with 8 beers available, mostly from the Milton Brewery.

They also keep good cider on hand too, and a good selection of bottled Continental beers. I particularly recommend the Rauchbier, which is just what it says it is.

Pool table and bar billiards table, plus board games behind the bar.

See website for food times and the current menu.
