Great to see this pub revived. It has prime position in Leyton, but had more or less run out of customers in its sorry state. Jammed full of people tonight. Four different Leyton breweries are represented on the bar and I tried at least one from each.

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

A large, High Street pub which was present in the centre of Leyton by 1863. As with many pubs in this area it was a Savill Brewery house, which passed in due course to Charrington’s. It was rebuilt in its present form in 1879 and obtained a full licence in 1882, having previously been a beer house. It was one of the last pubs in the area to retain a separate Public Bar, the partition being removed in around 2000. The pub was allowed to become run down in recent years, but re-opened under new management in July 2018, much refurbished. Stripped back, the pub now looks very beautiful inside and out. There is a large front bar, with five handpumps and an equally large rear room (formerly occupied by pool tables and originally by snooker tables) which is intended to become mostly a dining room. Outside seating in rear yard.

We have visited this pub 11 times, seen 30 different beers and tried 16 of them.
