I loved going to the “Puddins” in the mid ‘60s. My mate Bernie Allen and I were fans of The Beach Boys so to see a group as good as This Group Of Mine was brilliant. We’d go on Friday and Saturday nights. Then again on Sunday lunchtime before going home to Bethnal Green for dinner then back on Sunday evening. The lead singer was, I think, a teacher and I often wonder how they all fared. Thank you all.

Just watched Jools Holland and he had The The singer on Matt Johnson, he was talking about growing up in the two puddings. Was really interesting listening to him talking about all the different bands that played there and how it influenced him to go into music, so, I googled it and ended up here! The article about the two puddings is fascinating. X

I lived in Walthamstow and in 1984 I had my stag night in The Two Puddings. They stayed open late and had great staff. One of my mates was a biker. He turned in leathers and with a chain around his body. He parked his Harley on the pavement, right outside the entrance and then the bouncer wouldn’t let him in. It took some friendly persuasion and a fiver to change his mind. We had such a great night that my best man had his stag night there a couple of months later.

Hello Mandy ,
I am so sorry to hear that , I did think the worst when there was no Christmas card because mum never failed to send one with an up date on how things were going . I am glad you were all there . I am sure you do miss her very much . but take good care of one another .

This message is for Carol, my mum used to work at the Two Puddings when I was a kid on the lunches, her name was Marilyn Chamberlain, it would have been in the 70’s, I’m sure I remember you, as I spent a few days up in the kitchen in school holidays I think, I only looked up the Two Pudding because Harry Rednapp mentioned it on I’m a celebrity get me out of here tonight, I had forgotten it existed until he jogged my memory

Another memory of The Two Puddings.

My Mum Sylvia Moss was living and working in The Two Puddings in the 1940 era. My Dad Herbert Dartford was from Manor Road West Ham and was in The Royal Navy. He met my Mum when drinking in The Two Puddings when on leave. They married by Special Licence on 29 th April 1942 when he was on leave from the Navy.

My parents are both deceased.

A long time ago but may be of interest.
