An old pub, that's now a new pub, but retains the atmosphere of an old pub. Does that make sense. Along with superb beer, wonderful staff, and probably the best scotch eggs in the world.

Cool pub, off the main drag, excellent beer, cider, and Perry ranging. Very nice 👌🏻

Have visited many times over the years. It’s one of the best pubs in East London, with a great selection of beers across cask, keg and bottle/can. The pub (and its sister pubs) has a big menu up on the wall with clear pricing, which I appreciate. Staff is always friendly Sky and helpful. Prices are more than fair, and they offer 1/3 pours, which is great for the higher ABV offerings. The pub itself has a lovely vibe. Given its backstreet location, it’s usually visited deliberately by people who want to be there, who come for the beer and ambiance. Always a pleasure visiting this pub.

Very good pub just off Bethnal Green Road. Five cask beers on handpump when I last visited including a coffee porter. Unusually, the handles have no pump clips because the pub eschews branding. But there is a list of all the beers and ciders available on a board on the wall. A few wooden benches outside. There are some interesting insects displayed on the walls because the pub's owner is an amateur entomologist.

🚇 Bethnal Green 🍺 £6.80 Stonewall IPA ❤️ A superb East End boozer with loads of beer choices. . Tucked away off the beaten track in Bethnal Green you’ll find The Kings Arms. The nearest station is Bethnal Green overground which is a gentle ten minute stroll away. . From the outside this pub smacks of red patterned carpet, flowery wallpaper and a couple of fruit machines but as much as I wanted it to be true, it wasn’t but this is not a bad thing. . The decor here is contemporary with lots of traditional touches. Around the bar and walls are lovingly crafted pale green tongue and groove…
