London Hospital Tavern: Pub in Bethnal Green

The London Hospital Tavern is a food venue in E1, and it runs two kinds of night that suit different moods. One is sound-led: techno, breakbeat and bass, with visuals running alongside the music. The crowd tends to be there for the sound. The other leans towards talk. Tales, storytelling, the sort of evening where you eat, settle in and listen. So decide what you want before you pick. If you want to dance hard and lose track of time, look for the electronic nights. If you want something slower, with a plate in front of you and a voice doing the work, look for the storytelling evenings.
