East India Arms

A historic London pub in the heart of the City

Offering a traditional pub welcome in London's modern financial heart, the East India Arms has been serving the capital's workers, residents and visitors since 1829.

Situated on Fenchurch Street, this characterful City pub has a fascinating history stretching back even further, with the Magpie Ale House occupying the same site from at least 1645. The pub takes its name from the British East India Trading Company, whose former premises are situated next door.

Recently refurbished, the East India Arms has been given a fresh look while retaining its historic character and distinctive features.

Pouring something special

Beer is at the heart of the East India Arms, with an excellent selection of cask ales and lagers from Shepherd Neame, Britain's oldest brewer.

We're also proud to be the first pub in the UK to serve Shepherd Neame's new Bishops Finger IPA Reserve (5.5% ABV) on draught. A bright, golden IPA with vibrant citrus notes, it's a welcome addition to our line-up.

Alongside our beers, you'll find an extensive selection of premium wines and spirits, as well as a refreshed cocktail menu.
