Love the Wanstead one, The George.

Not keen on my local one, The Walnut Tree in Leytonstone.

Ahh,..The George.

I cut my drinking teeth so to speak in there in the early 80's with an old mate I worked with,regularly done our wages by sunday but always pre bought a red bus rover(remember them?) so I could get to work the next week,well before it was a spoons.along with the nightingale and british queen(now gone).

Long time since I've been back that way, I grew up round the corner from those pubs. What happened to the nightingale?

Had a lovely evening in the pub, very nice to have some Guinness again, all went off without a hitch for us, table in the beer garden, order on the app, it gets brought to you

Had a chat with the LL as he popped out to say hi, said it had gone really well, good behaviour from the majority we didn't see any bother

Lived at the bottom of Nightingale Lane in Leicester Rd in the early 90’s

Hearing all those pub names is great, spent many happy times in them and loved the Vietnamese next to the George .. NamAn I think it was

Happy day’s in a great little spot.

Used to venture across to the Hitchcock on Whipps Cross Road and frequented the Three Blackbirds in Leyton High Rd which had great live music ( and was full of nurses) as well as the Plough and Harrow ( again full of nurses )

Wow blast from the past!

The Three Black Birds used to have a great Pink Floyd tribute band play there, can't remember their name.
The live music on a Saturday night was brilliant.

We t to the pub about 6ish yesterday. Straight in, had to sit at a table unfortunately as they weren't allowing people at the bar. Got plastered, went back to a mates for a house party and have just woken up with no idea how we got home. Nearly just like the old days

Small world, I was born in Wanstead hospital and lived in Woodbury close and then Wellington road until I moved out of the family home to Leytonstone in the early 90s. Remember the Blackbirds aswell although the Heathcote on grove green rd was my local.

[vixen1700]

The Heathcote had quite a refurb a couple of years back, went to the opening night but never really warmed to it. Now called The Heathcote & Star.

The Northcote had an even more drastic make-over and is now a lovely little boozer serving local beers.

Woodford is Essex isn't it, or has it been swallowed up by London now?

Woodford is in the London Borough of Redbridge, always has been. South Woodford is E18 postcode though Woodford Green is IG8 (Ilford)
