The Alex, as the pub is known for short, is a homely and reasonably pleasant local that provides a valuable service for its clientele. It is, like the regulars, smart and slightly old-fashioned. The smaller public bar has sports TV, while the larger saloon bar, which is a soothing deep blue colour, was filled with gentle music, while the small stage suggested that the occasional live performance might be forthcoming. There are many prints depicting horse-racing on the walls, and the East End tradition of free bar snacks is dutifully adhered to.

Canning Town: Leave the station by the main, right-hand entrance and make your way by whatever means you deem fit to Barking Road. Then head along the road towards Plaistow (or, indeed, Barking). The pub is on the north (left) side of the road, a bit after the junction with Hermit Road.
