Hackney pub
Winner of The Time Out award for Best Hackney Pub in E8
We were handed the keys on the 22nd December 2011…We gave it a good scrub, lit some candles and opened the doors that very same night. There was no brand spanking new make-over, just some small changes here and there. The Three Compasses is hundreds of years old, and we’ve strived to stick to its roots as a proper East End boozer. No pretension, just the best local craft beer, delicious burger pop-ups, friendly staff, major sports fixtures on projectors, a lovely beer garden and the best pub quiz in Hackney.
Yard sale pizza
We’re on the look out for our next kitchen residents, so watch this space….but in the meantime you can order award winning Yard Sale Pizza to your table using our unique QR code.
It all began with a little oven, chugging away in Johnnie’s backyard. Ten years later and they’re serving award winning pizza across North, East and now South London. With delicious gluten free and vegan/veggie pizzas available, they really have something delicious for everyone.
drinks: Craft beer
& cocktails
As well as serving the best Guinness in Dalston and craft beer big guns Beavertown & Camden, we’re proud to serve a great selection of local craft beers from independent breweries of the likes of 40FT Brewery, Crate, Signature Brew & Lost & Grounded. We've an extensive spirits selection, especially single malts and gin, solid wine list, and freshly shaken classic cocktails. I know!
Pub Quiz
Join us for the best quiz in London every Tuesday
It’s a varied general knowledge affair, with music intros and a creative bonus round too. First place wins a £50 bar-tab, bottle of wine for 2nd place, a £25 bar tab at 40FT Brewery Tap Room for 4th place, a round of shots for coming 2nd to last, plus other spot prizes on the night. Pretty good, eh? It usually sells out so please do book ahead.
sports pub
With two projector screens and both Sky Sports & BT Sports available, we have the best atmosphere in Hackney for watching major football, rugby and cricket tournaments. We show Champion’s League, Premier League, World Cup, 6 Nations, Olympics & more.
Music & DJs
We bloody well love our music here at the Compasses, and our playlists feature everything from old school hip hop, electro, indie, indie-electro, Motown, rock n roll, 80s hits, 90s dance classics, new wave, reggae, soul, alt-folk, the lot. On a weekend we host some sweet DJ nights including Certified Bangers, Known Pleasures, Break It Down, Genre Fluid, Losing My Edge and more.
