Fucking freak show load of old shit. They've cleaned the fucking carpet which seems to have squashed the flea problem. If you aint seen in there you wont fucking believe it. 3 pound a pint ? They have put an extractor in the mens though. New management could not be nicer.

This pub should change its name to hell hole, every Saturday/Sunday morning without doubt there is glass & blood splattered outside. The clientele are either alcoholics, local weirdoes or teenage hood rats.
If you find yourself on the doorstep if the Orange Tree, turn around!!
|
They’ve finally painted over that nasty Orange exterior. I live just around the corner, so I’m hoping that it gets some proper management and clientele to match.
|
Its being given a make over & Paint job at present. It is also now under new Management according to the sign outside so I will give it a few weeks and try it again to see if its Improved. Well it cant get any worse can it ?

I recently spent an early evening in here and I take it back, it is Hades.... I've been generous with a rating of 3!
|
Not a very good Pub seems full of teenagers most the time and it looked absolutely filthy only been in there the once for one Pint and left. Would not want to go back.
|
I was a bit harsh. The place aint a joke. Cold cheap beer. Infested with fleas. They have a good toilet at the back.

The Orange Tree is not the greatest pub, but after my visit on Friday evening I find some of the comments on here a little over the top. I will admit that it doesn’t look the most inviting of places from the outside, but I was surprised at its size upon entering.
The barman and landlady were very friendly and the lager was good (even if the choice was only Fosters or Kronenburg).
There’s American paraphernalia all over the walls and 3 pool tables and a DJ booth at the rear of the pub and TV’s with sky at the front and rear of the pub.
There is a beer garden, but it was raining so I didn’t get to investigate. There is also a good pub across the road called The Triumph which doesn’t appear on BITE.
As I said before, this isn’t a great pub, but it’s not Hades either.

Place is a fucking joke. Fag butts and crisp packets behind the seats, 'no drugs' notices all over. Can't believe these places still make money. That said, staff could not be nicer. Cats dogs arcade games .... Massive building. What a waste. Have a look at the beer garden, they aint even trying.

Found myself in this remote part of North London, so popped into this big pub on the corner.
The place was a little rough looking around the edges, but a nice reception with attentive staff & friendly customers.
I went back to the place for the rest of the week, as lots of stuff advertised. A fun karaoke on Thursday night, a dj on Friday, live band on the Saturday, and free pool on the Sunday. How can you go wrong?
When I read the other reviews about this place, I had to check this was the right place as it wasn't anything like that. If you find yourself in North London I'd certainly suggest you visit this place.

Absolute hole,full of chav kids.
There are no decent pubs in Friern Barnet.Somebody would make a mint if they opened one in the N11/N12 area.
|
so bad its almost worth visiting for comedy value.
absolutely shocking
|
A total dump. Frighteningly lousy service and a waste of space.
This Orange Tree will certainly end up as a block of flats!!!
