A nice looking traditional Victorian pub, a big pub, the inside is fairly opened out but with two distinct areas, Tris describes the interior set up quite adequately. Four cask beers were on the go in the shape of Mighty Oak Captain Bob, Titanic Plum Porter, Vale VPA and Lacons Legacy which was in fine fettle. Certainly one of the better pubs in the immediate area.

So return I did; was previously here for the Gas v Orient a few years back and it was a bit of pit. Huge investment has occurred & it’s nicely done. Much larger than I recall, enter to a large front bar with impressive oval servery and banquette seating either side, with a further impressive area off right for food, though the rear yard is surprisingly basic. Four cask, I only had eyes for the Plum Porter which was sadly fag-end but fine (NBSS 3) with 2x Maldon and Crouch End beers to make-up the numbers alongside some interesting keg. Talking of chilly, it was icy service from the 7ft barmaid though we got a bit of light relief from the interloping forrin who struggled to understand that there’s no 3pm TV footer on a Saturday and no there wasn’t some dodgy Albanian stream they were going to log into. Rather good piped music from somebody’s version of Now That’s What I Call Indie. Oddly, there’s escape rooms upstairs. Note for the footy – it’s Leyton Orient fans only and tickets have to be shown at the door. Well-worth visiting now, quite the turnaround. 7.5

Very scruffy and grubby place that looks like a lot of money was spent on it in 1982 but not a penny since. Open L -shape with attractive if battered oval wood bar and some nice stained windows. To the rear is a large area which was presumably a billiards room in days of yore. Toilets were atrocious. The main away fans pub on match day at Brisbane Road so I was surprised to see two pumps with no ale or proper cider, just a turned Doom Bar clip – not too clever for a Saturday with a thousand Gasheads descending for a 3pm kick-off. Given that well-behaved away fans can drink at the Technical and the LOSC why you’d choose to end up at the Coach is a mystery - we made short work of our Guinness and headed onwards, probably never to return. Rated 3

This is a Victorian pub (1863), situated on unmemorable Leighton High Road, but standing out due to the cherry red and oxblood faience tiling and Charrington’s leaded windows. The previous two reviewers make mention of the fact that the place has had a substantial makeover since Quinno’s disappointing visit.
The interior is Victorian in style, with impressive bar array, boarded floor with a black and white chequered bar apron, wasabi-coloured walls then an ornate white ceiling. Furniture is conventional with décor in the form of a plethora of distillers’ mirrors, whilst to the rear is a dining/function room of sorts, with customers dressed in traditional German garb (?); an oompah band (?) was playing the theme from the A – Team on my arrival (?), whilst up front, multiple TVs were showing the football at deafening volume, though at least it was a local Orient match, with many animated viewers drawn from a mixed crowd, generally on the younger side and reflecting this increasingly gentrified area.
The ale lineup amounted to one unused pump, then two from Mighty Oak: Outfoxed, Captain Bob then Crouch Vale’s Brewers Gold topped off with Titanic Plum Porter in superb shape and very reasonably priced at £2.50 a half, served by a friendly barmaid.
This is a decent pub, offering something different, a good ale choice with Plum being a bonus; I doubt there’s anything better in the area, but the grade is given with the proviso that deafening sport isn’t a regular occurrence.
