Our menu is compiled daily using British shores seafood. We work with independent fishmongers to select the best ingredients. We believe sustainable British seafood should be something for everyone to enjoy & were better than a proper East End Pub.It's not all about food at the Vic. We haven't forgotten our roots, Pubs are a place for the community to meet, socialise & be happy.We've got some cracking beers, a carefully selected wine list and some awesome cocktails for you to enjoy whilst seated in our heated beer garden that has a teepee up during the winter months.

    Came in on the final service of 2024 for my dad’s birthday with my family. From the outset we were very well looked after by the knowledgable and charming Jacob. A model example of how to come across friendly and attentive without being at all overbearing. The food was absolutely sensational and despite my mother having a shellfish allergy, every care was taken to ensure her dining experience was not impeded. Truly exceptional food, a good wine list and very clever cooking going on in the kitchen. Couldn’t recommend higher and I wish Tom and the whole team all the success in the world for this venture.
