Right, gather round, this is the lads and lasses' guide to the only street in London that matters, and if you disagree we can settle it at the quiz on Thursday. Ten minutes end to end, Orford Road's got more good grub per square foot than most of zone 1, and I've eaten my way down it more times than Walthamstow have won on penalties. This is the lineup I send anyone who texts me "where do I eat in the Stow" — sorted, verified, no messing about.

Orford Road feeds — 10 items
Name	Address	My take
1Eat 17	28-30 Orford Road, London E17 9NJ	The OG of the strip, part deli part restaurant, and the Sunday roast here has bailed me out after more than one heavy Saturday quiz prep session.
2The Good Egg	28-30 Orford Road, London E17 9NJ	Tucked inside Eat 17, does a Middle Eastern brunch that'll sort your head out after a late one at The Village — the babka french toast is basically a cheat code.
3Ruff's Bistro	32 Orford Road, London E17 9NJ	In the old Orford Saloon spot, proper date-night energy, good steak, and the missus still goes on about it so it must be doing something right.
4Orford's Fish & Chips	59 Orford Road, London E17 9NJ	Pricier than your average chippy but the portions are built for two, and a battered sausage after extra time has never tasted so righteous.
5The Village	31 Orford Road, London E17 9NL	Beer garden's the real draw, chuck in a 2-for-1 burger deal and you've got yourself a proper Tuesday that somehow becomes a Wednesday.
6The Nags Head	9 Orford Road, London E17 9LP	Classic boozer doing pizza and fries, dog-friendly too, which matters when half the quiz team turns up with four legs instead of two.
7The Queens Arms	42 Orford Road, London E17 9NJ	Airy gastropub, exposed brick, does a Mediterranean-leaning Sunday roast that's given The Village a proper run for its money in my book.
8Bargo	57 Orford Road, London E17 9NL	Small, slick, cocktails done properly — not where you go for a swift pint but where you go when you actually want to impress someone.
9Peeld	69 Orford Road, London E17 9NJ	Poke bowls and acai for when the body's had enough of pub grub and starts sending polite complaints — balance, innit.
10Hometipple	34 Orford Road, London E17 9NL	Proper cosy wine bar for the nights you fancy a Rioja and a chat rather than a pint and a pub quiz, which does happen, occasionally.
