With televised rugby this morning, both Orient and West Ham playing at home this afternoon and some kind of Halloween thing going on tonight, it's a wonder they have any beer left when I get here.

It's quiet in here on Sunday evening. Quiet that is apart from two loud and abusive drunks and their four feral children. I twice hear them politely asked to leave, which, to everyone's relief, they eventually do, albeit accompanied by a whole dictionary of swear words.

The pub is found in Leyton, Greater London, E10 5OJ.

In High Road, initially this pub existed as a short-term ‘Pop-Up’ pub, open for the duration of the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Then closed for nearly a year, it re-opened on a permanent basis in August 2013. The pub is housed in part of the former Leyton Town Hall. It has several different rooms in which to drink, and the toilets are housed deep in the dungeons. The interior of the pub is now very much more homely and comfortable than it appears in my early photo on this site from its pop-up days. Reclaimed by landlord and closed on October 2022, after alleged non-payment of rent. Re-opened under operation of Remarkable Pubs with a change of name in September 2024.

We have visited this pub 125 times, seen 256 different beers and tried 139 of them.
