Must have the largest bar for a tiny pub I have ever seen. It fills 2/3 of the floor space! But friendly staff, decent beer. Not bad.

El Comandante - great Latin American bar, with Castro and Guevara posters galore. Often a Stop the War poster or similar up too.

Come here for a laid back Latin night...perfect...

Very good little boozer for pre-game drink....staff friendly....only gripe was there was no ale/bitter on tap when I went in today.

Recently been to this place, very friendly made to feel welcome, chatted to Landlord, although next time will ask him, why they do not serve draught beer after 11pm. The 2 barmaids were stunning, even put Match of the Day on for us, wonder if the pub's character will change, as its right round the corner from Arsenals new ground.

By the way this pub is also know in the Latin comunity as "El Comandante" (As in "the Lider Che-Guevara")

If you like Latin music this is the place to go, English looking pub with a Latin touch. Pool table on the side and a juke box with all kind of music. Friday and Saturdays there is a DJ with the latestes Latin music.
Beers from both sides of the world.
Only down side is, there is no space to dance!!!

samba posse pop down there for a jar or six and let the latin flavour flow. they don't play though the band says they're too loud. the commendente behind the bar is alright too. but it could be bigger and have a working hand dryer but life throws us these things, I'll wipe my hands on my trousers.

Strange little Latin themed old pub - Castro posters on the wall, San Miguel on tap, Latino bar staff. Hidden away off the Holloway Road - well worth a wander!
