The Horse and Groom located on Curtain Road, was built early in the 1800s and recently recognised as the original entrance for Shakespeare's Curtain Theatre where Romeo and Juliet and Henry V debuted. The theatre was demolished in 1598 and a quarter of it still probably exists beneath the venue according to the architects. The Museum of Shakespeare will be opening behind us very soon with an immersive state of the art installation. The Horse & Groom has grown to be one of East London's most loved pubs. By day, we're a traditional East End tavern serving Classic & Craft Beers & Ales, cocktails and premium drinks alongside a great food kitchen which will be opening very soon. By night, we've played host to some of the best names in dance music including Dimitri From Paris, Greg Wilson, Todd Terje, M.K and many more with the venue's fantastic sound install and dance space.
 
The venue has recently undergone an extensive full refurbishment over both floors with brand new toilets, flooring, a new kitchen, increasing capacity to 250 on the ground floor and 100 on the 1st floor and a garden at the back. Apart from being a fantastic pub and weekend party space, we can cater for weddings, film and video shoots, media events, conferences, engagements, seasonal parties, fashion parties and weekend fun. Sit and relax in one of our many nooks and crannies, all with free WIFI, or enjoy their carefully selected music playlist. With an exciting drinks menu offering a wide selection of craft beers, cocktails, wines, premium beers, ciders and ales, they are sure to excite your taste buds whilst you enjoy delicious Yard Sale Pizza. Whether you are looking for a place to unwind after work, a lively night out, or a venue to host your special event, The Horse & Groom has something for everyone. Come and join us to experience the charm and vibrant atmosphere that makes us a favourite in East London

    This venue serves Pizza food.

  • A word from the chef:

    Yard Sale Pizza It all began with a little oven, chugging away in Johnnie’s own backyard. Seven years later and we’re serving love and pizza across North, East and now South London. We’ve made some great friends along the way, starting with Macaulay Culkin and his band The Pizza Underground who performed at our Clapton shop’s launch party. Since then we’ve worked on some epic pizza collaborations from NYC pizza legend Frank Pinello, to Mercury prize nominated musician Loyle Carner and more recently, Dalston kebab legends Mangal 2 Through our special events and collaborations, we’ve been able to raise money for a number of charities over the years including Hackney Night Shelter, Football Beyond Borders and Chilli Con Carner, as well as feeding over 8,000 NHS staff at local hospitals during the pandemic through our NHS Pizza Fund. We were awarded Best Value Eats in the Observer Food Monthly awards in 2022, after winning their Best Cheap Eats award in 2017, have been voted London’s favourite pizza in Time Out’s inaugural Clash of the Slices in 2022, and were named London’s most-loved restaurant in Time Out’s 2016 Love London Awards. We’ve been featured in the likes of Time Out, The Telegraph, Buzzfeed, Shortlist, Vogue, Evening Standard and on Sunday Brunch. We’ll always be local at heart, making orders by hand and delivering them ourselves through our in-house delivery service – never through a third party. Handmade, hand-delivered from dough to door. It makes award-winning neighbourhood pizza that bit better. We hope you agree.
