A quick, late-evening visit after I just miss a bus from the stop outside. Pub hugely improved since my last visit here at least ten years ago.

The pub is found in Walthamstow, Greater London, E17 5AL.

This pub was present as the Victory by 1844, becoming the Dog & Duck in the 1970s. Proximity to the now sadly lost Walthamstow Stadium saw a brief renaming as Racers in the mid-1980s. The pub was extensively rebuilt in 1936 when it obtained a beer and wine licence, having previously been a beer house. Formerly a Watney’s house, it was allowed to become run down around the turn of the century and closed in 2016. It re-opened in 2017, hugely refurbished and much more comfortable. There are two large seating areas (one a former snooker hall) and a large garden at the rear. There is an open-to-view kitchen specialising in pizza. Four handpumps on the bar.

We have visited this pub once, seen 3 different beers and tried 1 of them.
