See more about this pub on WhatPub, CAMRA's national pub guide.

Upminster, Havering & East London's first Micropub, which was the South West Essex CAMRA Branch (London Area) Pub of the Year 2018 & 2017 and Runner-Up in 2020 & 2019. It opened in a converted office on November 21st 2015, initially as a snack bar selling Real Ale, pending the outcome of a 'Change of Use' Planning Appeal, which was successful and it then became a Micropub. In late September 2022, there was a change of ownership when the team behind the After VI Mobile Bar (Jordan, Jack and Sam) formally took over, having operated the Micropub since early April.

There are high tables, comfortable new chairs and benches. Up to eight cask-conditioned real ales, together with four KeyKeg beers, plus Ciders and Perry are served direct from the cool cellar, these are visible through a large window in the bar area. Gins, vodkas, single malt whiskies, wines and cocktails are also available. Card payments (including contactless) are welcome, but cash is still OK..Table service is offered, but is not compulsory. The bar has air conditioning. No on-site parking is available, but although there is limited paid parking during the afternoons on St Marys Lane, it is usually best to use public transport to get there, or walk. Open on Mondays (since March 27th). Set mobile phones to silent and don't make or answer calls inside the pub, or be prepared to pay a fee of £1 for charity. Last orders are 15 minutes before closing time.
