God, I hate gastro pubs like this one. This used to be an honest-to-God local pub - the restaurant area at the back was once a rocking music room, where the likes of the Balham Alligators used to play. Was also venue for the Islington Folk Club at one time. Ah...sniff sniff...the good old days!

I love this pub. The only downside is that it's quite expensive, but hey - that's Islington. The barstaff are friendly, the beer is well kept (considering that it has more of a wine-list clientele) and the food is excellent. I wouldn't usually pay more than a tenner for pub grub (I'm a tightwad), but I make an exception for this one because it's restaurant quality food. The big, squishy sofas are good too.

That bloke 'jabd' is right. The staff are wankers. They don't seem to want the old school locals around (we like nice food too) and they don't seem to expect the others to come back by the indifferent way I saw then handled. loveley food even if it is at Upper St prices. Nice big bar and toilets not that offensive.

This place is awful. The wine menus are ragged and stained - basically look like they have been pulled out of a rubbish bin. The glasses were so dirty I had to send my drink back twice. Food is totally overpriced - big portions but tastes crap. Don't bother going to this bar if you're looking for anything decent.

Used to come here all the time but put off by staff getting further and further up their own ars*s. Recent change of faces has returned the place to the friendly, relaxed place it used to be - a great place to sink a few bottles of wine after work or with the papers at the weekend. Best food is Saturday late lunch or Sunday roast. Children allowed in restaurant but sadly, as in the rest of Islington, not in the pub.
