    Lived in the area for 15 years up until 2017.In that time we lost 16 'proper pubs in less than a mile radius.
    You walked past the end of Cable Street - that has also lost all its pubs (I think there were 8 when I moved there). There are hardly any left on the Isle of Dogs now either. You did well to find the ones you did, there aren't many left!
    Surprise you didn't try the two at Chrisp St Market while you were there - they are exactly the type you were looking for.
    Been in all those shown here. Know the Crown well and the White Hart & Blind Beggar - did you know there used to be two other pubs there - one next to the White Hart and another on the opposite corner next to the Blind Beggar?
    As for 'rough' - never saw a single incident and spent many a happy hour mixing with the locals.
    Gawd I miss London!

    It’s funny how you pointed out Troxy as you was out drinking. It was actually built in the 1933 on an old brewery site ironically for £250,000 around £18m today. Cinema and stage performances with some famous comedians and singers/bands entertaining there.

    Be sure to visit the Kray family plot up at Chingford Mount Cemetery (Go in through the cemetery gate, opposite the Church and walk straight ahead for probably 1/4 mile and where there is a sharp right hand bend in the road, the Kray plot is in front of you, slightly to the right).
    Beware, whilst you are there, you will feel like you are being watched (It has a proper feel about the place)!
    You'll get a good view of London from up there too!! 🔭

    Columbia rd is very canny in tower hamlets, i know ur looking for rough pubs but the pubs there are salt of the earth, there is a pub called the Birdcage, and the Queen Vic in eastenders was modelled on it, i lived in a place called old market square, next to Columbia Rd for seven months some while ago, the flat is valued now at £465,000. Up north were I'm from, it would cost about 90k for that type of property, just thought i would share a bit of info with the viewers. Cheers.

    The 'Blind Beggar' (just round the corner from my youngest daughter's gaff) notorious for a gang of violent pickpockets in the 1900s and the scene of the murder of George Cornell by Ronnie Kray.
    My daughter has lived in the area for four years and had no trouble apart from crackheads nicking packages left. But then compared to the A&E department where she practiced, anywhere seems peaceful I suppose!

      @@honestplaces To be honest I really liked it, I used to live close to a small park (King Edward Memorial Park). I could see Canary Wharf from there, sitting by the Thames River and it was also few minutes walk to a Shadwell station. I had few places I liked to take a walk, literally few minutes walk from the place I used to live. I was unfortunately forced to move away from there due to one particular person I will not mention here. I moved then close Mile End, did not stay long there as I went through a bit of nightmare again due to another person (roommate) I barely knew. I then moved to Woodford/Woodford Green and lived there amazing 4 years, no issues at all, got some help from wonderful people as I helped a bit too, it was really amazing place to live. I moved out of London eventually, lived in London slightly more than 10 years. I moved out of Tower Hamlets once, but years later went back for another 4 years, living with Japanese people that were amazingly kind and warm. I lived 1 year in Japan too.
