This is the second Micropub in Havering and East London. It opened on 21/12/2017 after its conversion from an accountants' office, which followed a successful planning appeal against Havering Council's refusal for 'change of use' to a pub. It was the South West Essex CAMRA Branch (London Area) Pub of the Year 2020 & 2019.
Five to eight Real Ales are served from a wide variety of microbreweries, straight from the casks in the cooled ground floor cellar, with an additional six to eight Real Ales from Keykeg taps. Many Real Ciders are also available, plus wines and gins. This is one of the few pubs where the draught beers and ciders are sold in third of a pint (nip), half pint, two-thirds of a pint (schooner) and pint measures. 2 pint & 4 pint takeaway containers are also available. By 20/10/2021 (less than 4 years after opening) it had sold 1,880 casks of Real Ale (1279 different Beers from 303 Breweries). There is a mixture of high and low tables and chairs, plus some padded 'cask' seat stools, unusual 'spider' lighting and an ever-growing range of pumpclips which represent the Real Ales that have been on sale. Air conditioning was installed in Spring 2019. Payments are by Card / Contactless only and 'tabs' are preferred. No Bookings are taken.
