Third visit... First was about seven years ago when there was a huge print of the twins with babs at some black tie event. This has gone. Pub plays on its nice garden, particularly liked the magazines you can borrow. Current winner of most expensive pint paid for..... £4.60 for a peroni. When it gets to a fiver, there will be no more mappiman pub reviews.

Finally visited this pub after intending to do so for years with it being the Krays and Jack the Rippers old hunting ground. Not much evidence of the past so not too touristy. The beer was OK, service was good and quick and I liked the beer garden out back. Decent pub to pop into if you are on your way to Upton Park for the footy (as I did) and nice enough for a few cold beers in the afternoon on a summers day...

Nice clean space now - was a pit when I first went some years ago. Amazing beer garden and decent sound.

Tourists might miss the Kray memorabilia; thankfully both are at a minimum - worth a visit for the history in any case.

Bar staff are friendly. Cute local and student crowd.

Bland, bland, bland. I might have sat in George's seat but Ronnie was nowhere to be seen - probably because he is dead, just like this pub

Walked in ...walked out. Nuff said. Not a pub in my eyes.
