Historical London public houses, Taverns, Inns, Beer Houses and Hotels.
Oporto Tavern, 43 West India Dock Road, Limehouse E14 - in 1931
Oporto Tavern, 43 West India Dock Road, on the corner of Mandarin Street - in 1950s or 1960s
My dad used to work in the original 'Old Friends' Chinese restaurant, opposite of pub and on the corner of Mandarin Street (no longer there) and West India Dock Road. It is interesting because it shows some of the surrounding area of the pub at that time when that area was the unofficial Chinatown.
