The Denmark Arms Pub

🚇 East Ham 🍺 £5.10 Pravha ❤️ A cracking Victorian East Ham boozer. . The Denmark Arms is located opposite East Ham Town Hall and at the busy intersection of Barking Road and bustling East Ham High Street, East Ham Tube is a ten minute walk away. . The pub was built in 1890 and achieved Grade II listing in 1998. This is a large one bar pub which retains many of its original Victorian period features. Throughout the pub are ornate columns and down the left hand side are gorgeous green glazed tiles. If you look around the ceiling you will see wonderful cornices and embossed friezes, this pub has so much beauty hidden in plain sight. Upstairs is a large function room which is available to hire. . The beer choice was good and full of familiar favourites including one cask. I decided on a pint of Pravha, my pint was great and reasonably priced. This pub has a British pub grub food menu, fish & chips is average priced at £15. . I visited around 2pm on a Friday lunchtime and the pub was quiet. I managed to have a chat with the new Landlady Melanie who took over the pub back in August. Melanie explained how she is engaging the local community and putting on events like quiz nights, Karaoke and DJ nights to keep the locals entertained. There is also live sport and a pool table, so there is something for everyone to enjoy here. I also got a chance to talk to one of the staunch locals Martin, Martin has drank in here for years and had many a story to tell, what a nice fella. . The @denmarkarmse6 is in a similar position to the surrounding pubs which lost a big chunk of income when West Ham moved. Even though this pub is a bit rustic around the edges, it’s a fantastic example of Victorian splendour and it’s rare to see a pub like this on this scale. Melanie and the team are doing a cracking job and waiting to give you a warm welcome at this cracking East Ham boozer. . ℹ️ Info correct on visiting 18/11/22
