New Year's Day reminds me that I actually spent New Year's in here with three friends back in '03 - how time flies!
Judging by the photos, inside and out, the place has been subjected to much gentrification over the last 16 years and now looks rather hipster where once it was a locals' boozer. Still, the evening was most memorable with much bonhomie, including a quality buffet spread at great value; we enjoyed a fine evening going on beyond 2.00am.
It may have changed beyond all recognition, but I'd be happy to return, if only for the sake of Auld Lang Syne.

This pub is well described by previous reviewers. It's much bigger than it appears from the High St, with a couple of rooms in addition to what I would call the main bar area. It was quite busy when we visited at around 6.0 PM on a Wednesday evening, with the only place where we could find a seat accommodating five was the add-on room at the back. It's good to see an excellent pub like this doing the sort of trade that it deserves.
I'm afraid I failed to note all the beers on, but there were several real ales available. I do recall that the Sambrook's pairing of Junction and Powerhouse Porter were both available.
This is a cracking pub that actually feels like a real pub. This is another Walthamstow pub worth including on any crawl of the area.

Real Ale Ray left this review about Chequers
Another well deserved eight this one and well worth seeking out. This large traditional pub was very welcoming and friendly and also had some very well kept ales. My choice of ELB Pale Ale was very appealing and a second pint was justified.
