This is a vastly improved pub with better service and nine of the ten pumps serving festival ale .

Barstaff were very efficient coping well with the crowds going to the football. One of the better 'spoons I've been to on service alone. Reasonable choice of beers.

This is a convenient pub for me, being by Highbury & Islington tube which is on my way home from work, but it seems to me to lack atmosphere and be rather noisy - I suppose the open plan scheme (I think it used to be a cinema?) is to blame. But as with other Wetherspoons the beer is good and cheap and I concur with Gordonferry's approval of the Curry Club food.

I'm surprised the reviews are so positive. The building's okay, but the clientele range from the merely chavvy to the positively psychotic. And so do the staff, none of whom can add up change correctly.

As with most of the chain this one is fine, cheap and staff do a good job. Ale choice good and whilst not the best in London are good enough for the price.
