Wonderful evening on 21/11/07 despite England losing against Croatia. A darts match was on in the lounge bar when we arrived.
Again, pub virtually unchanged since I last reviewed it in October 2005. The McMullens' Country Bitter remains on good form (they have not stocked AK for at least two years now).
A very relaxing pub, cosy furnishing intact and clientele of all age groups all mingled with one another.

Good traditional boozer,long may it stay this way.

Super beer; super staff; altogether a super local! Warm and friendly atmosphere, where locals make newcomers very welcome. Good quality beer can be enjoyed in a friendly country-like pub. Highly recommended!

Visited a couple of weeks ago with a friend from South London. Superb to see the pub is virtually unchanged apart from redecoration as necessary. Country (Macs) still in good condition, and there's a smile behind the bar. I only get to visit the pub once or twice a year these days and the welcome from one or two of the locals is still familiar.
Mainly easy/M.O.R. background music, kept at a level allowing conversation. Still 7/10. If the AK returned, that would be 10/10.

a small but friendly pub

Friendly backstreet boozer not known by many and of a dying breed. Well Kept McMullens Country. Worth seeking out for a quiet pint etc.

Lesser known McMullens pub in back street not far from Camden Town. On my last visit the public (front) bar had been made into something akin to the back lounge and the AK beer is no longer served. The Country bitter is still in good form and so is the whole of this friendly pub.

Cosy little two-bar local situated at the back of a housing estate behind Brecknock Road (Camden Road end). Behind the lounge bar is an extension which sometimes has a pool table. Dart board and tv in the public bar. McMullens Country Bitter in good form, and the locals are friendly. Don't be put off - it's really a great pub for a quiet few pints. Very cheap too!! No food - mainly crisps/nuts etc.
