Crown, Upper Hollowayback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Great Guinness, nice landlord & landlady and friendly locals who'll chat with anyone. The landlady even puts out some sarnies & pork pies for free, a nice place to watch football whoever you support, plenty of good-humoured banter.

A decent ordinary pub on Holloway Road, you can be English,Irish or Martian and enjoy this place. I wish more pubs were like this place.

I Don't know what drumandmonkey is on about.
Ann is a lovely landlady!
Great pub for watching football, and the friendly local regulars that give as good as they get in the banter department!
Oh, and yes! The Guinness gets a 10/10 score easily the best in the area if not London.
It takes an Irish lady to know how it should be served, not a New Zealander, Aussie, South African etc... etc....

yes best guinness by far in London. Very old school type pub but extremely friendly and character full irish locals who are always up for a chat and craic whch you don't get anywhere else in Holloway rd this pub is not for the posey type. its a great place for a decnt chat which we manged to do on paddys nite it was the only pleasant pub that nite that you didn't get squashed to death!

Best Guinness on Holloway Road by a country mile. This is a *proper* Irish pub (as opposed to a Genuine Oirish Pub): great Guinness, friendly (mainly Irish) locals, GAA sport on the telly (but not to the exclusion of anything else), wonderfully idiosyncratic decor that you couldn't replicate, wonderful Irish landlady, great staff. For the sporting-minded, they also have a dartboard and a pool table. The perfect place on Holloway Road to sit, talk and drink in to your heart's content.
Just one thing stops it from getting a perfect score: no real ale. Ann's Guinness really is something else, though.
