Back open, closure was only temporary. Still no good beer, though I am sure it's a great place if you're a regular.

Hasn't been open for a few days now, it seems. Not sure whether this is temporary or not.

I used to go here a lot when they had quizzes on and I have always found the staff very friendly and the pub as a whole has a very communal atmosphere. To me, this pub is exactly what most other pubs try to emulate, the dirt and seediness is what makes me love it. One of a dying breed.

I agree with most of the earlier comments, it's a very dump and filthy place. However, I wanted to give'em another chance and went in to watch an England footie game. Instead of the England game though, they were showing Lithuania v France on some strange Asian channel. Still very filthy, with some rather odd people inside and very smokey. The only plus is the summer terrace, that's about it...
Worth to walk a bit further to check out some better pubs...

Used to like this pub, until management changed. Got rid of live music, sky tv, quiz nights, flushing toilets and regulars! Most expensive pub in the area with the least atmosphere. Smells of dog poo -`not6 even with a visit!

I ran into a few old schoolmates in here. That's the best thing I can say about it. I can't argue with what's already been said.

Not a nice place. Unfriendly, dirty and generally nasty.
And since when was this pub in Hornsey? It's in Wood Green!

The place is a dump. You literally stick to the carpets in there (where the thread's not worn out).
A filthy, unwelcoming place.
When I was last in they even had nut on the bar for anyone to eat - a great way of tasting everyone else's bacteria!

Not anywhere near as bad as the previous comment suggests (but I would say that as its my local...). Does have sky sports now, plus decent pool table and sometimes live music/DJ/late licence on a Saturday. New terrace is good in the summer.

The management of this pub do not have a clue how to run a pub. The dearest pub in the area with NO attractions. They advertise football but don't have Sky Sports? Toilets are filthy and the music / Jukebox selection has been rubbish for years.
