an odd but not unfriendly pub full of bookish locals and can seem very clicky to an outsider (ive lived inHighgate 20 years)but wouldnt consider it any better or worse than the flask just a lot less students in the summer! Always a decent pint and i hear the thai food is good if a tad pricey.

Bounded into the Prince at 9.37 on 23/12/11 on a Christmas crawl with two friends. My half pint of Buttcome was gulped down in record-breaking time. Well done guys.

Interesting to see a raft of recent negative comments here have been the recipients of a Christmas cull.

On a quiet (4 other customers) saturday afternoon we ventured into this smashing looking pub, there was a small choice of good ales to chose from. We all enjoyed the beers, the smart, cosy interior but the wet weekend of a bar staff blimey o riley! In these darkish days of rescession and the pub up the road very full you need service with a smile not with a face like a slapped .... !

Bounded into the Prince of Wales on a birthday crawl with two friends on 1/10/11. I was DEEPLY TOUCHED by the young barman who remembered me from last year! And my half pint of Buttcome was shiver inducingly good!

By miles the best pub in Highgate - much better than the over-rated Flask nearby. Lovely higgledy-piggledy wooden-panelled interior. Open fires in the winter, great spot overlooking Pond Sqaure with tables outside round the back in the winter. Good beer, including the brilliant Marston's Pedigree.
