Oh dear... maybe I spoke too soon about "Fullers lite". Walked here yesterday and pub was closed. Noticeable presence of a large "Wrecking Crew" inside. Dear God, don't let the vandals destroy this pub, as they have with so many others. Why can't they leave things be?

I am sorry to hear of your experience clea I too meet the tall bald guy last night and he told my friend and I that the table we were sitting at was reserved for 7.30 pm we paid no notice as it was only 6pm and people were coming and going allthe time.But I am upset at your treatment I can only suggest you try to speak to them again or contact Fullers Head Office and make a complaint..and this is from a Fullers shareholder for the last 10 years.

There is no need for rudeness from the manager.

I went into the Flask this evening to enquire about the possibility of hiring all or part of it for a private function- my wedding breakfast and reception, in fact, as I'm thinking of getting married at the church opposite. I could see the staff were busy-ish (although I've worked in quite a few pubs, and it wasn't heaving by any means) so I thought I'd just ask for a card so I could call at a quieter time. When I asked the barman about private hire he was curt with me to say the least and started questioning me about numbers - his whole air was that of someone who would be doing me a massive favour by allowing me to pay for a reception- but he didn't say it would be impossible. Then a tall, bald guy appeared behind the bar,(presumably the manager) and the barman gestured me towards him. Again, I asked for a card and he said "we don't do private hire" and walked off, just leaving me standing there. I was planning to stay and eat with some friends, but left straight away due to his rudeness. Such a shame, as it's a gorgeous, atmospheric little place and in a beautiful location. Just goes to show- put "jus" on a pub menu and some establishments can get a bit too big for their boots.

A Fullers pub a 3 story Georgian building although the bar is on the ground floor and sat in a ante room next to the fire and its old fashioned and a quirky sort of place and lit by candles.

London Pride ,Discovery and other Fullers beers on I had a pint of Bengal Lancer a new IPA at 5% as the ESB was not on.Beers sampled in great form but expensive at 330p for Pride but this is North London.

This is my friends local and its one of the best .

I will be visiting this pub this week end for the first time when meeting an old friend who lives nearby and will post a report on my findings.
