Having moved to the area just a few months ago I had intended for a while to check out what in terms of distance is "my local". On the face of it a reasonably welcoming traditional pub full of what seem to be familiar-to-each other locals. Potentially this could be a brilliant pub - a welcome blast from the past remains - a pool table. On top of this an open coal fire place, a range of ales, a friendly astmosphere and no "your not a local" nasty looks.
Two things that hugely let it down are:
1) the temperature in side - it's FREEZING!
2) truly AWFUL music played by a 60+yrs landlord!

The contact details for this delightful old east end pub are incorrect.
It has been under the control of a new couple since Jan 08 and has turned into a comfy, friendly, traditional pub.
