Can a chicken burger ever be tastier than a beef burger? Too f**king right it can! Yum yum nom nom will be back here soon for more. I also tried the beef burger (half n half innit) and it’s as good as it gets. Yes please! Decent tunes to boot.
This place has a special charm. Vintage, deliberately low key interior, cosy interior, wonderfully friendly and helpful staff, simple yet delicious food, well chosen house wine and superb comedy host Alex in the comedy club downstairs.
Love this pub!! Such a cool vibe... always an awesome crowd and lovely staff!!
Great food, great drinks and the most beautiful waiter (the one taking food orders) in the world
A lovely looking bar at ground level that also includes a hidden and atmospheric basement bar which features (among other things) free stand up comedy on Wednesdays and Thursdays. During my last visit I saw a variety of acts: everything from brand-new comics to established headliners! The food is amazing, too!
This is an amazing venue, both in general and for the comedy downstairs. Friendly staff and a wonderful vibe. I would highly recommend it!
So what did I do yesterday? Well I basically got a brain dump about how to host an open mic night from Alfie. It was fun, informative (I mean really feckin informative, I have pages of notes and tips that will improve my stand-up, presenting at work and most importantly how to leave a mic stand) and so enlightening. I heartily recommend it to anyone who wants to MC any night be it comedy or corporate.
Love Farr's. My new fave bar! Great staff and atmosphere!
What a beautiful, stylish, funky bar! It has such a wonderfully warm atmosphere with friendly helpful staff and drinks a very good price. Loved the comedy night and I can honestly say I had one of the best nights I've had in a long time!
Found by accident en route to Hackney. Really liked it. Amstel £3.90 a pint. Friendly bar staff and all round good vibe.
Great atmosphere, really friendly staff and cheap drinks. Went there for the first time the other night and had a brilliant time. Would particularly recommend the comedy night downstairs.
I would not have known about this bar were it not for the WAF comedy nights. Very delightful place. The customer service was brilliant - had great banter with the barman. The decor all around is quirky and pleasing to look at. All in all - a really cool bar with a great atmosphere.
Great bar - friendly staff, cheap prices plus they have some brilliant comedy in the basement. Definitely worth checking out.

My boyfriend had treated me to dinner at Mangal 2 in Dalston but as we finished at about 8 we decided to go for a drink before heading home to the newly opened Farr's School of Dancing, which just happens to be right next to the bus stop that we use to get home from Dalston.
This was quite the funky place. The bar is a central island, and an eclectic mix of seating can be found around the edges - what looked like converted cinema seats, sofas etc. It had a homely, slightly ramshackle feel to it and plenty of space in the middle for dancing later in the night. They were also playing some great music - stuff with a sort of 60s soul vibe that had my shoulders shaking.
And the prices! One round cost us 8 pounds - and that was with me getting a large glass of wine (which was served in a carafe which I thought was cute). Where else can you get that, even if it was house wine? For this we could even forgive the surly bartendress her lack of warmth.
I don't think I'd need much of an excuse to go back, but the fact that we will literally have to pass it every time we catch the bus could provide the perfect reason to have 'one for the road'.
Cute pub.
Good espresso martini… May return again just to try other bits. Made me drool and want more of the oregano fries. So simple yet delicious!!
Sarah and Amins are excellent bar staff. The “Paco Tacos” are insanely tasty. We spent more than £20 a head, but only because the food, drinks and music were awesome
Down to earth friendly and professional staff xx
1st visit.
I only stopped by because I was on my way to meet my friend for a gig and coincidentally her name is Farr.
I had a Pavement Press cider (1st time too) and enjoyed it. The bar is spacious, comfortable and has a lovely flower garden behind the building.
Popped in for a pint before dinner with friends. Quick friendly service, Guinness was decent to be honest. Nice tunes playing.
Staff are nice, pub/bar is mint. Does a comedy night for up and coming comics. Won a bag of sweets, proper job.
I went recently after many years. The front has been decorated to a good standard, while the inside remains the shabby chic decor that it makes this place special and unique. It did have a downstairs for club nights but Covid has taken that away from us and replaced it with Private Hire. Good selection of drinks, reasonably priced and decent music. The crowd are local and it is a good spot for chill out and chats.
Discovered £6 Margaritas on Friday evening. Good ones too 😘👌 cool indoor space with Aircon on a hot day, lovely friendly bar staff, will definitely be back
Nice place, good vibes. Bar in the middle of the room, old vintage design. Decent selection of beers.
We Are Funny Project is honestly one of my favourite places to perform Stand Up. I have been gigging here for a year now and can't wait for the next 12 months. Brilliant and safe place to hone your skills as a comic, couldn't recommend enough! Plus they offer courses in Stand Up, MCing, clowning, and many more.The amount of friends I've made here is immense!
