An East end pub once populate with West Ham supporters is to reopen following a £1.5million restoration.
The Boleyn Tavern in Barking Road, East Ham, is due to welcome back punters this month after an 18-month closure.
The Newham recorder reports that During that time, independent chain Remarkable Pubs has aimed to return the boozer to its Victorian glory and how it would have appeared on first opening in 1899. Pub manager Sean Atkinson is to welcome customers for their first socially-distanced pints on June 24th.
Hand-pumped real ales come from Fullers, Shepherd Neame, Hackney brewery Five Points and Tottenham craft brewery Beavertown, with guest beers to choose from as well.
The Bolyen Tavern was once the closest pub to the Boleyn Ground which was West Ham’s home for 112 years. In 2016 they moved out to the London Stadium with the West Ham stadium demolished to make way for a development called Upton Gardens.
