What We’re All About
WHAT WE AIM TO BE…
Our goal is to become a point of pride for the community and a destination worth visiting. The Stag & Lantern will be welcoming to all. We strongly believe in supporting the local community and independent companies. We only serve exceptional produce.
WHO WE ARE…
The Stag & Lantern is founded by Robert, a local Highams Park resident, beer lover and homebrewer who has been longing for a local pub where you can relax, drink beautiful beer and socialise with friendly faces.
The bar team is headed up by Mel and John.
WHAT IS A MICROPUB?
Over recent years Micropubs have seen a surge in popularity and are viewed as an antithesis to the modern pub landscape. They are small, independent and community focused. They exist to serve as a social hub for the community and not as a means for large corporations to make money.
THE MEANING
The name The Stag & Lantern is a throwback to traditional English pub names whilst being unique and representative of the local area. The stag represents the local forests of the area whilst the lantern is symbolic as a beacon of light, and represents East London and human industry.

We plan to always improve, grow and branch out into exciting directions.
