My favorite pub in London probably. The tap selection is always great - lots of interesting (and good!) beers that keep rotating. It's also not too loud, the lighting is warm and somewhat dim, and the place has a sense of hygge (if you've been to Denmark, you'll know this is a good thing). In a word, it's comfortable. The staff are also very friendly.
A really great pub. Dedicated to beer and not taken over with gastro food. Used to live local and used this place often and still as good five years later :)
Great selection of amazing beer, lots of hard to find stuff. All beer available in thirds so easy to sample. Very knowledgable staff and great vibe.
Excellent place. A traditional corner boozer with the best beer.
Staff great too.
Best boozer in the East end; crackin' selection, top staff & sometimes dogs.

Very good pub just off Bethnal Green Road. Five cask beers on handpump when I last visited including a coffee porter. Unusually, the handles have no pump clips because the pub eschews branding. But there is a list of all the beers and ciders available on a board on the wall. A few wooden benches outside.
There are some interesting insects displayed on the walls because the pub's owner is an amateur entomologist.
Have visited many times over the years. It’s one of the best pubs in East London, with a great selection of beers across cask, keg and bottle/can. The pub (and its sister pubs) has a big menu up on the wall with clear pricing, which I appreciate. Staff is always friendly Sky and helpful. Prices are more than fair, and they offer 1/3 pours, which is great for the higher ABV offerings. The pub itself has a lovely vibe. Given its backstreet location, it’s usually visited deliberately by people who want to be there, who come for the beer and ambiance.
Always a pleasure visiting this pub.

❤️ A superb East End boozer with loads of beer choices.
.
Tucked away off the beaten track in Bethnal Green you’ll find The Kings Arms. The nearest station is Bethnal Green overground which is a gentle ten minute stroll away.
.
From the outside this pub smacks of red patterned carpet, flowery wallpaper and a couple of fruit machines but as much as I wanted it to be true, it wasn’t but this is not a bad thing.
.
The decor here is contemporary with lots of traditional touches. Around the bar and walls are lovingly crafted pale green tongue and groove panels which are accented by subtle pictures and mirrors, this makes for a calming environment.
.
Now for the beer, the choice and advice preorder is outstanding. I’m not a connoisseur or a beer bore but I do have an open mind to someone who knows their stuff. I didn’t have a scooby what to order but the very nice gentleman behind the bar helped me through the multitude of beverages available here. After some informative consultation I decided on a Stonewall IPA by @brooklynbrewery , it was a top tipple and really hit the spot.
.
The atmosphere here was convivial and relaxing, this pub is geared up to be a hipster central but it’s anything but, this is good old fashioned pubbing at its finest.
.
The @kingsarmspub is an exceptional pub that oozes calm and character. Bethnal Green has always been synonymous with decent down to earth boozers, this pub encapsulates E2’s heritage and takes it eloquently in to the future. If know your beer or have no idea, this pub is a must visit.

Great local pub of mine. Love going here and I love the dead insect frames around the walls. I really wish this pub did proper food. However it doesn't but I do love the spicy dried beans you can get there.
The King's Arms on the corner of Derbyshire and Buckfast streets is a most fine and welcoming place offering a wide and constantly changing selection of cask and keg ales, ciders lagers and wines, spirits and soft drinks. Hidden behind the ever busy Bethnal Green road it is a great find and well worth a visit.
