The Birdcage in Tower Hamlets

Nice location, friendly staff, food ok.. cold beer. £17 for steak and chips. Pub like thousands other pubs in London!

Stop by here for a drink after work. The staff are so nice. I left a £80 lighter and instead of just taking it, the bartender called me across the road to give it. Top man, I forgot his name but beard with glasses.

Impromptu roast on Sunday in a pub in my neighbourhood- it’s a bit of a risky strategy as sunday is Colombia road flower market & brick lane market - so the area is chock-a-blockWalked in and asked the lovely bar lady if there’s a table / she pointed to a lovely seat at the back and we were off - as it was busy (fun crowd not rowdy - with families; couples; singletons all smiling ) we downloaded the app and ordered the roast platter for 2 and a couple of drinks - the lovely Canadian waitress (Danielle) was so helpful in getting up extras / additional drinks etc . Delightful afternoon - had to walk round the block to burn it off but it was very nice , friendly staff and lovely to see london buzzing againThe handsome Moroccan waiter was so attentive in ensuring tables were clean - we saw him take out a families belongings after they left it behind accidentally. The family were delighted obviously ,Wish I could post pics here - the platter was delicious and humongous but we worked our way through it. Maybe the gravy dish’s could’ve been labelled as they clearly were different for the different meets . However it was a great afternoon

Wonderful and friendly staff. So welcoming. Food was amazing. Not 5 stars because of cracked teapot and dirty milk jug (custard?). Shortage of crockery?

Great pub. Will be returning soon! Thanks for having us. Our Electro Rides also got lots of attention parked outside, which is great! See you soon

Interior design is warm. The foods are delicious. Service quality is not good. You are waiting like 10 minutes at the bar nobody looks at you.I say watch them make cocktails. evasive. It's like they hate that job. They pour half of the alcohol on the counter, throw a lot of ice for your glass, half of it is scattered around. Their hands are soaked. There is no trace of hygiene. If you follow the cocktail preparation process, you may not be able to drink a cocktail again. I've never seen anything like this in the UK before.

We arrive for a Saturday lunch and told there was a reduced menu as there was a Xmas party going on. The waitress only mentioned the nachos were off, but on the app there were no vegan options, which was one of the main reasons I’d chosen this pub in the first place. We all ordered the beyond meat burgers and one of them had mould on it! We were offered a lot of drinks on return which was a nice gesture. However the lack of food on offer and for the price they charge, it was a poor service. Would return for a drink but not food unfortunately

A Brewdog pub next to the flower market, crazy busy on Sundays which acts as a public toilets, some staff are extra grumpy. Pineapple beer delish.

Staff was helpful and efficient - and very polite! Food was fresh and tasty and I always enjoy a good Brewdog craft beer. Also the location is very handy, two steps away from the columbia road flower market. I'd definitely come back when I'm around!

EDIT: On my second visit, everything was great. The wings we had were the best wings out of any brewdog branch I have tried so far. The service was very caring and fast, with drinks and food arriving timely. Especially, Alex was very kind and welcoming. Thank youI really enjoyed the drinks and the taste of the food. Good value for money too, BUT I had an unpleasant experience with the overall service.Why ? Because we ordered the wings and after waiting 30 minutes, we received cold food. Also, when we asked for a refill they said the kitchen is closed now however we were not asked for any final orders or had any indication on the menu that the kitchen was closing at that time. So after paying for the unlimited wings option, we were only able to get a refill for 2 people only when we were a group of 3.And to note we arrived 8pm, which is a reasonable time for getting food.
