Bars In Stratford

Rumour has it that Stratford is only good for the one thing, and that's shopping. Rumour has it that we think that's bull. While home to the stunning Olympic Park and a top myriad of shops in the heart of Westfield Shopping Centre, it's also a great place to drink in the East. From fun-filled bars with entertainment to casual boozers, check out our list of some of the best bars in Stratford.

All Star Lanes Stratford

Happy Hour - 2 for £15 selected cocktails, 2 for £8 mocktails and 2 for £10 house wine, pints and Prosecco!

When it comes to one of the best bars in Stratford, there's a name that simply cannot be denied. Not only harking back to the days of the 1950s thanks to their retro, rock 'n' roll edge, All Star Lanes is the perfect place for Americana bites and booze set alongside a slot of bowling. 

Riverside East

Riverside East is found within the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, boasting great views of the Thames from it's stylish rooftop garden, complete with lots of wild plants. The two-storey venue also flaunts a colourful restaurant and bar area downstairs, where you can get your hands on delicious cocktails.

There are multiple different food menus to choose from, changing seasonally with a focus on sustainability. Tuck into the likes of cacio e pepe pizzas, Korean barbecue wings and loaded tater tots here.

OutPost London

Nestled within the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford, Outpost London is a stylish and welcoming venue offering a blend of great drinks and simple yet tasty food.

Whether you're grabbing a drink on the expansive covered terrace overlooking the park or enjoying a meal in the elegant Garden Room, Outpost's contemporary design creates the perfect atmosphere for any occasion. The venue also offers Italian-inspired stone-baked pizzas and a variety of sharing platters. 

Draughts Stratford

Draughts East Bank is no ordinary bar - it's Stratford's new social hub where craft drinks, comfort food, and over 1,000 board games come together in perfect harmony. Spread across two stylish floors with room for 150 guests, this board game bar brings the iconic Draughts experience to East London's cultural quarter.

Expect globally inspired eats (hello, Halloumi Fries and Ice Cream Nachos), creative cocktails, and low & no-alcohol favourites like the Caramel Popcorn Milk Hi-Ball. Whether you're here for a chilled drink or an intense game of Catan, this is the spot to unwind, compete, and connect.
