Closed for Major Refurbishment
The William Morris is currently closed for a major renovation, so you won't be able to pop in for a pint right now. The pub is set to receive a £272,000 makeover that includes a complete interior redesign and a brand new kitchen. It's positioned as a premium local with strong potential, given its central location near the college and council offices in Walthamstow.
Once it reopens, the plan is to offer a solid menu of pub classics alongside a great range of drinks. The refurbishment aims to create a more appealing space for the local community, with new signage and a refreshed look to draw in passers-by on Forest Road. It's worth keeping on your radar if you're looking for a new spot to check out in the area, though you'll need to wait a bit longer before you can visit.
