Welcome to Play LDN – East London’s Ultimate pub Experience

Step into Play LDN, a vibrant new pub restaurant in the heart of East London, where great vibes meet unforgettable flavours. We’re all about good food, better cocktails, and the best company.

Our menu celebrates the bold, rich tastes of the Mediterranean, with a twist of Pan-African soul—all cooked fresh to order over glowing coals. From succulent grilled meats to fragrant, spicy sides, every bite tells a story.

At the bar, our mixologists serve up signature cocktails with flair, and on Thursdays, you can enjoy 2-for-1 cocktails and 10% off all meals—the perfect excuse to start the weekend early.

Looking for something more private? Head downstairs to our exclusive private room, complete with club-grade sound, a 90-inch TV with USB input, and the freedom to bring your own DJ. It’s the ideal spot for birthdays, celebrations, or a unique night out.

Not happy with the fact that I booked to come to the venue the night before but unfortunately had to cancel due to illness. When I contacted the organisers via WhatsApp and called the number. I received no response and therefore unable to get my refund.

Things on the menu wasn’t available to order or had been put through and then got told there’s no more. People who was upstairs got told to go downstairs, downstairs is very small and just has awkward spacing. Leaving upstairs barely with anyone making the ambience rubbish. Wasn’t a great birthday meal to have there.

Had the most incredible experience at Play Lnd! The staff were super friendly and attentive, made us feel right at home I had the sea bass with jollof and king prawns which were absolute perfection, generous portions too! The cocktails were amazing and worth the price, as they are no shy with the alcohol! And the aesthetics? 🔥 Took some fabulous pics with the girls, the vibes are on point! The music was banging, added to the whole atmosphere. Can't wait to come back and do it all again! 💯 Highly recommend!

Play Ldn was an amazing experience from start to finish. Myself and my girlfriend went for a date night and it did not disappoint. The interior and ambience was very modern and classy . They had a live saxophone player and a dj which made it fun and created nice vibe . The food was so tasty. I went for the jollof rice with Suya which was definitely 10/10 and my girlfriend had a lamb chops and chips . We will definitely be coming back !!
