Things didn't get off to the best of starts when visited for the first time this week, as the barman short changed me on my first pint.
Thankfully this was my only gripe in what was an otherwise very pleasant little pub. Four ales on offer including Greene King IPA, Adnams Explorer and Sharp's Doom Bar, the latter of which arrived in reasonable condition.
A nice fire was going at the front of the pub, and despite being almost empty when I arrived at 5:30, a decent crowd had built up by 6:00 generating a nice atmosphere from the mixed clientele.

Certainly one of the best places for real ale in the area - had a few very nice pints of Broadside on Saturday night! Friday nights is normally a disco, with a bias towards rock, but pop and indie requests get played too. There seem to be bands playing most Saturday nights, although last weeks 'rock & roll' band (keyboards, bass & drums but no guitar?!!) were a bit dull. The place the put the bands isn't very good though, and it was much better when they used to play at the raised area at the back.

Another good pub but just short of the Mitre in terms of beer quality. Very friendly bar staff, was told it gets very busy when they have live bands on. Only locals and a few workers in today but they seemed friendly enough.

Three months since my first review of this place and it's now my favourite pub in Barnet - not that there's much competition! Really good bar staff and a lovely crowd of locals of all ages. Bands at the weekend play classic rock covers and pack the place out. If all you want is somewhere chilled out and friendly to enjoy a drink, you can't go wrong here.

This is a good pub and the people of all ages packed in on Saturday obviously agree with me. Greene King IPA, Directors, Explorer and some standard lagers are all available from the very nice barmaids. Behind the main bar there is a smaller seating area that leads to a garden at the rear. There was a band setting up under the plasma screen in this rear section but I left just before they started playing.

This is definitely one of the better pubs in Barnet and I would have no hesitation in returning.
