| Finding any pub in Tottenham selling Real Ale is an achievement and that is one of the plus points of the Volunteer…or at least it would be had any of them been available when I called. Sadly the Winter Warmer clip was facing inwards and the other pump was devoid of any offerings at all so it was a choice of kegs or lager. Whilst the pub is fairly accommodating and functional, there really isn’t very much to get over enthusiastic about, even if the beers had been on. This place is tucked away far enough to lose the crowds on match days and basically does all the things it needs to without being anything that is memorable. The carpeted interior is neat and tidy if rather dated with plain textured wallpaper and tongue and groove ceilings. There is an interesting collection of brewery mirrors, some lanterns and a few brass jugs hanging from the beam by the bar. A dot matrix advertised the upcoming karaoke evenings and a dart board is positioned on one side of the open bar. The best features are probably the etched windows but even they play second fiddle to the bright, tacky Budweiser signs. There are a few benches out the front if the language inside becomes a bit too much. All in all it is not really worth a major effort to go out of the way for but it is a bit of an oasis away from the busy High Road pubs and for that alone is worth knowing about.

| Great little pub stuck at the back of a housing estate near Broad lane. Sells good old fashioned English grub inc Pie & Mash, roasts etc. Freindly staff and clientelle. Typical commercial beers on tap and bottle. If this pub was on the high road it would be realy popular, but because it's out of the way it's usualy quite. A gem in a sea of mediocracy.. ganger - 11 Mar 2005 15:23 |
