About Craft Beer Co.
Craft ales are on the menu at this casual contemporary hangout with some vintage touches.
The ever expanding Craft Beer Co acquired this former Charrington's house on the once bustling Commercial Road in 2016. A simple makeover and spruce up of the interior has ushered in the usual Craft Beer Co pleasant and inoffensive neutral decor featuring some authentic original pub mirrors from Charrington's, Bass and Worthington adorning a stripped back bare brick wall. Some original iron columns remain along with a recently uncovered original mosaic bearing the legend "Railway Tavern". The bar, bar back, toilets, ceiling, floor and windows are all relatively new work but the pub interior is smart and clean and very welcoming. 6 hand pumps are joined by 21 keg taps and a very impressive range of bottled beers including German and Belgian offerings from world famous breweries. The cask and keg lineup changes regularly but you can be certain of a decent range spanning the spectrum from uber pales to dark stouts and a lot in between.
A very welcome addition to the E14 pubscape.
Original ELAC pub guide description retained below:
Ex-Bass. Ungentrified pub, right next to Limehouse BR and DLR station. Quite small inside. Sky TV. Darts. A little seating on the pavement.

Nice pub near Limehouse station. Very good selection of beers. The food was good, but portions were very small (I enjoyed the ox cheeks, but was still hungry afterwards). The bar stretches over two floors, with a little outdoor section on the roof.

This pub is buzzing when there's events at Troxy. Lively atmosphere with people from all sides of life - exactly how a pub should be. Although it's on the main road, sitting outside is still good and it's a great spot to watch the world go by. Drinks selection is extensive, including a couple of cask beers. I cannot comment on the food but it looked good.

Nice pub with a good selection of rotating craft beers and ales. Haven’t eaten here but the food looks decent. The only main thing that lets this place down is their shocking lack of real glasses. If there are more than about 15 people in the pub (which happens almost every day) they immediately move to plastic cups. The end of the bar is just a huge messy pile of dirty glasses that do not get washed. Some of the beers are £10+ per pint. At this price, a thin plastic cup doesn’t really cut it. Such a monumental waste of plastic too. If they fix the glass problem, it’d be 4-5* easy

Finally the Craft has a kitchen again and it was worth the wait, stunning roast and the patatas bravas was to die for. Have we found the best chef in Limehouse
