| Enfield must have caught it on an off day.My first visit since it changed to a Nicholsons , who have given it a minor makeover but kept the original wall tiles.I was served by friendly staff and a good range of real ales were on sale. Tried Acorn and Oakleaf and both were in excellent condition. covman45 - 24 Nov 2011 16:17 |
| Round the corner from the back entrance to New St train station, this is a good local pub to kill time in whilst waiting for trains, but not much else. Also, the unkempt, balding, moody fat guy behind the bar should probably seek alternative employment if being courteous and pleasant is too much of a stretch. EnfieldTaaaanBlud - 19 Oct 2011 15:29 |
| Visited Friday 15th July 2011. 21.00 till closing. Used to be a punk rockers haunt of mine back in the early 80's, and although the layout hasn't changed much, obviously everything else has! A good selection of ales on draught for those who like that sort of thing on here, with the popular choice being something called Blonde. Our strongbow and lager orders were nice and flowed with ease, and the bar staff were very friendly and helpful. Nice atmosphere in there as well, candles always make a nice touch when you are out with your partner, so they are making an aesthetic mark straight away. Music was varied and crucially, not too loud so as you could hold a conversation with others. Yeah we liked it 8/10 Bitterville - 18 Jul 2011 03:48 |
| In here on Saturday morning just after 11.00 so a bit quiet. Eight handpulls one had cider on the others all real ale @ £2.35 - £3.10 a pint I tried the localy brewed Purity UBU @ £2.65 and very nice it was too. A good place for a quick pint if catching a train as some of the other pubs around the station do not open till 12. (ie the Crown & the Victoria) bjbrummiejohn - 13 Jul 2011 07:41 |
| Went there last night and whilst it was busy it wasn't packed like its sister pub The OC's which is rammed every Saturday, the Shakey has changed a lot since I used to drink in there in the early 90's, 8 real ales on and all apart from the Jaipur were under £3 where a pint of real ale in OC's is £3+ . Another good thing is that it feels like a proper boozer where sometimes OC's feels like an overpriced wine bar, out of the 2 I know which one I'll be frequenting now. Ispy - 27 Mar 2011 12:33 |
