picture of Ferry Boat Inn Tottenham Hale isn't famous for its quality drinking establishments, so to find a pretty country pub a stones throw from an ugly retail complex in this most urban of areas must be more than a relief to the locals. The stone-floored building dates back a couple of hundred years and overlooking an impressively large reservoir you'd be hard pushed to find a more pleasant setting. Inside its not exactly olde worlde, but the original fireplace and some of the beams remain. There's adequate service an overall feel of individuality. There's a heavy focus on (reasonably priced) food, but a couple of real ales and a fair wine list will keep the more discerning drinkers happy. If you fancy a walk along the Lee Valley Nature walk then this is the perfect spot to come afterwards to recharge your batteries.
