The Royal Star furnishes Shoreditch with another great addition to the abundance of gastro pubs in London. Combining clean lines, oversized naked light bulbs, exposed brick walls and rustic wooden tables, it looks every inch the modern pub. With its intimate, candle-lit atmosphere, it provides the perfect setting for a chilled after work drinks session or bite to eat.

However, The Royal Star is more than your typical London gastro pub. It also mishmashes restaurant, wine bar and café into the mix. The food is simple and modern with a quirky Latino twist. Also, staff are very friendly so don't be scared to take a little time to pore over the drinks menu as there is an extensive range of wines and craft beers on offer.
