Aimée Jane ParrMarch 31, 2019Great spot to chill out & have a good beer! Definitely do the brewery tour, various beer samples & snacks included. Come here on a sunny evening & sit out by the canals. Try the vegan daal pizza!
- DaniJune 19, 2015Great self of beers and I had the delicious lamb pizza. Super thin crust and extra yummy. Can get quite busy so don't be shy in sharing seats, benches, and steps with people. A great gem
Like A Local GuideFebruary 6, 2015Order your favourite fresh stone baked pizza and beer (or cider/wine), squeeze in with the locals at one of the bustling long tables, then kick back and enjoy the atmosphere and live DJ beats. Read more
Micro brewery in the White Building. Great IPAs, Bitters and Stouts and good selection of international craft beers. Relax on the terrace next to River Lea and enjoy their fantastic pizza.
Fon StarOctober 10, 2014Fantastic pizza!! Tasty and good value. Beer is nice too. And even if other tips are talking about hipsters, I did not find it pretentious at all. I will come back for sure.
Ece SunayMarch 31, 2018It is quite a hot spot. Yummy pizzas! Thin, crispy and fresh. Beautiful outside sitting area even the place has heaters for cold weathers. Only downside is extremely dirty and unloved toilets.
ChaundraMarch 9, 2018I used to love this place, but on our last visit the only beers on tap were variations on an IPA or porters/stouts. Combined with a hipster DJ we stayed just long enough to finish our (tasty) pizzas.
Cenker KöseOctober 24, 2016Real Milano style & delicious pizza and great chance to have a beer as canal-side drinking. Fantastic experience!
Andrew KittredgeApril 15, 2019Great pizza especially the Middle Eastern lamb one really thin base with lots of flavour the house larger is also very good !
David RJuly 1, 2019Fantastic outdoor beer and pizza spot right between the canal and Hackney Wick station. Good music, though crowd can get a bit rowdy. Solid non-alcoholic bevvies too.
Sam MAugust 25, 2014Fantastic pizza (worth the wait), good-not-great beer, wall-to-wall hipsters, reggae/dub/minimal techno music, nice canal-side drinking if you can get a seat (unlikely).
Vic McGinMay 2, 2015If a group of you are going, book ahead, it gets busy. Sit outside and drink beers next to the canal in summer. Pizzas are delicious. Better in the day or early evening.
Andres SchondubeJuly 6, 2016Lovely place in hackney with cool terrace facing regents canal, the great crate IPA (the best) and their pizzas are amazing!
- Sam MAugust 25, 2014I enjoy going to this place and making it little bit less cool as a consequence; it needs to be taken down a notch or two. Lamb pizza was so good it made me lose my mind.
Mark MakinApril 12, 2017Cool spot to hang out in the sun and get away from the chaos in Hackney. Great IPA, good American Pale ale and tasty pizzas, try the sage and truffle 🍕👍🏻
Clark GilliesNovember 1, 2021Great bar/brewery on the canal with great beers on tap. Little out the way from Central London, but loads to do in the area so worth a visit.
Good pizza and a nice range of craft beer. Could do with some more places to sit though so gets in early if you wants to eat...
Rusalina IvanovaAugust 5, 2018A really cool place with an outdoor are right next ti the canal, good beers, delicious pizzas and funky dj music. Awesome and great fun!
Really good beers and pizza next to the canal. Practically impossible to find a table when the sun's out, but the atmosphere is great. Middle Eastern lamb pizza 😍
the ipa is a must. the golden ale is simply very good. the lager is much better than any of the continental stuff they have on tap.
- Good when its sunny and you can sit outside coz there's never a place to sit. Truffle pizza is the best as is the rarely server sour beer
Shuvani BurtMay 16, 2016Brilliant location next to the canal, perfect for a sunny day. Pizza was great too.
Ol OMarch 2, 2014Great IPA on tap, but stout is a bit bland - too smokey and lacks density. But the place is really lovely! Great for a lazy weekend brunch.
- Jack StockerJuly 26, 2021Fantastic pizza and great atmosphere. Pictured is the Middle Eastern Lamb - definitely recommend!
Fabulous bar and brewery, if you can find it! Don't miss the pizza - great value and quality
Sue ClareAugust 9, 2014Amazing pizza, beer & setting but snooty arrogant staff and pitiful toilet facilities for the capacity
Fantastic veggie pizzas - great beer too. On a sunny day sit outside, either at the front or the back of the building
Jon ChooSeptember 22, 2012Pizza will take ages to arrive but it will be worth the wait. Both laksa chicken and spicy salami were brilliant and goes well with their IPA.
BarChickAugust 20, 2013As a microbrewery they’ve got some awesome draughts and you can see the gleaming tanks and pipes of the brewing gear in a side room http://barchick.com/find-a-bar/london/crate-brewery
Shannon LowMay 8, 2016Great place for an afternoon beer in the sun by the river. Cool vibe, lots of space outdoors, very hipster.
AndrewMay 24, 2014Mixed feelings here. It's a good venue with decent atmosphere, the cider is great but it's let down by the pizza. Mine was ...dusty. The bases are like an overdone, really thin crispbread #dust
Crate Lager is the standout brew, and having sampled every one of their pizzas, you simply can't go wrong with any of them.
Love the IPA and the pizza is amazing. Try the lamb kebab 👌
Awesome pizzas and the staff are very efficient. Go early afternoon on a sunny Sunday to nab a seat outside!
Excellent pizza, gluten-free ones as well, and lovely beers and cocktails in a lovely canalside location.
Excellent seasonal pizza with gluten free option. Sage and truffle oil is one of my fav!
Stuart CruickshankApril 10, 2013Hipster barstaff? Check. Fantastic beer? Check. Outstanding pizza? Check. The Laksa Chicken is one of the best I have *ever* tasted. Seriously.
Ierax HolargeusJanuary 20, 2022Lovely spot next to the canal. Outdoors heating. Outstanding pizza. Great IPA. I can ask no more.- G PJune 20, 2014The pizza is well worth the wait because the pizza is awesome and you need to soak up all the atmosphere!
Usually have to wait 45mins for your pizza, but totally worth it. Pair it with a pint of Crate IPA.- Moritz KrögerApril 9, 2017Great pizza and a great selection of craft beers make this place a perfect spot for dinner.
- Cristiana RodriguesAugust 5, 2013Best pizza ever. Crunchy as hell. Perfect seasoning even the plain margherita. Weather permitting seat outside by the canal.
Great beers, very tasty pizzas made just right and thin, perfect for sunny day in. Music is bloody good, too...
Richard AntbringJune 7, 2017Pizzas are a bit overrated, but the setting and the great beer make for a great time with friends!
Carl GriffinNovember 4, 2015Cool trendy brewpub operating out of old canalside warehouses. Great place to visit before going to Olympic Park.
Go for the sweet potato or the sage pizza! You'll have to wait 30-90 min for your food but worth it.
Jenna AndersonOctober 9, 2014Slammed in the summer but it makes you feel like you are part of something really cool. Don't be scared. Just enjoy it.
Amazing beer and awesome pizza complete with a canal side location. What's not to like?!
