Leyton Pub News

[Lifelongfan]

Looks like the Tech pub (to be renamed Leyton Engineer) will be re-opening in July ready for the new season. Been a big refurbishment- think it is a grade 2 listed building? Wonder if it will be for the away fans?

[LPE]

Home fans.

Toilets upstairs now. Full refurb pictures here:

[BiggsyMalone]

Thank f*** for that. Maybe I can start getting a beer in the star again.

[ContrifibulatoryFred]

Hope the bar area is bigger than what they had in the previous ownership

[aylesburyos]

If the Engineer (Tech) will be for home fans what is the away pub? Kapture wine bar?

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Always quite liked the tech but thr bar was tiny and the toilets were actually really annoying so glad they have adressed at least one of them

[Cheshunto]

More competition for the club’s various culinary offerings on a match day.
Nigel won’t be happy.

So right. It was the size of a postage stamp.

Hope it it's kid and dog friendly

[LPE]

Hope it it's kid and dog friendly

Yes to both.

Bar will be in the same place.

Yes to both.

Bar will be in the same place.

But the same size? Surely not.

There’s life in the old warhorse, the Birkbeck, surely?

Corporate ad-speak. Ugh.

Leyton Engineer reopening today at 5.00pm. Opening party last night

[LPE]

A great friends and family night yesterday. The pub was packed with superb beers on the rig. Decent craft offerings from Siren and Five Points. Cask is Sheps Master Brew and 2 others.

Pool and darts games room is the bizniz.

A huge asset for Leyton residents (and shire dwellers to enjoy when coming in for the match).

[Real Al]

f*** sake. More Masterspew!

[LPE]

Interesting. The older I get the lower ABV work best for me. Really enjoy Master Brew. Spitfire does have more flavour though. Each to their own.

The pub world is being taken over by Golden Ales and craft beer. If Abbot/Doombar/London Pride is not craft ale, what is?

[Lifelongfan]

Nice refreshment stop along the High Road on a match day- Leyton Star, Birbeck, Northcote (slight detour), Engineer, kebab at Anatolia, Kapture, LOSC, Coach & Horses, Lion & Key, Prince of Wales & William 4th. Plus Remarkable pubs have bought the old Spoons pub on Lea Bridge Road. Just what is needed after a defeat

This is excellent news and yet another offering along Leyton High Road. More competition for the offering at the club of course and something that NT possibly won’t welcome.
I assume that food is on offer at the new pub ??

Same people that do the food at the Lord Tredegar. Will be first class.

Not on match days but this will affect the Coach revenue drastically.

Craft beer is just a marketing ploy. It is supposed to be a beer from a small independent brewery but the big brewers have latched onto it. Much the way the mega companies bought real ale breweries and are now closing them down. Under that criteria the three you mention would not qualify.
