| This is a shop converted Irish bar with all of the usual favourites including a jukebox, old men propping up the bar talking about all things Gaelic and many flat screens for the football and horse racing. It took a while to get served my Guinness, which was very nice, and I got the feeling that nothing ever happens in a rush here. There was a standard draught selection available during my Friday afternoon visit and I was surprised to also see Directors available, not that I tried any. Although this place is nothing special I found the welcome to be friendly and I would have no problem returning here for a quick pint before jumping on the tube. Strongers - 2 Feb 2010 12:59 |
| Haven’t bothered with this place in the past as I am usually put off by the nicotine bouncers who linger in the doorway. But noticed that they were showing the Spurs v Wolves game on a Setanta feed, so decided to venture in for a quick one and leave the wife to buy up the Tesco Express next door. Was pleasantly surprised to find a better pub than I was expecting. Yes it is an odd layout due to the square rectangular shape of the former retail premises, and has a bit of an Irish décor theme going on, but not to the extent to make it a plastic Paddy pub, and I can imagine the drinking experience in here has improved immensely since the smoking ban. Bar in the middle and seating along other side and at both the large ends for the satellite teles. A mature male dominated clientele on this Saturday afternoon and it’s a long time since I felt one of the youngest people in a pub. Only one handpump and this was Courage Best. But my pint was congenially pulled by the Irish governor referred to below, and although not brilliant, was in far better form than the performance I was watching by the Lillywhites on the big screen.

| Funny pub...!Lots of everything.Irish builders drinking in one corner watching the racing,old men in the other and then just a nice mixture of young and old enjoying themselves with no problems.The guvenor Eddie (I think thats his name) working very hard.Typical old Irish landlord,order a drink once and he remembers for the rest of the night.This pub is packed if a big football match is on.There is a Tesco's next door,which is handy for the smokes,but the Tesco manager drinking in the pub while we have to wait in line to be served.I complained and he said that he was off duty in his uniform. Apart from that idiot,the pub was perfect.-Rating 9 JOHNNYDORSEY - 4 Nov 2009 13:18 |
| Was in here last night.They had a band doing Mod covers(Who,,jam,Small faces etc) bloody good they were to. However they were over shadowed by the Drunken Ginger haired skinhead who decided to take his clothes off Hilarious. Guinness was good as well tottenhamsean - 25 Jan 2009 14:40 |
| Only went in here as it was the only Place near Oakwood Station except that Kids Bar The Maze Inn which is always full of yobs and Lager Louts up the road. Had Good Few Pints Of Guinness and ended up staying in here a lot longer than I was intending too. Staff & other customers pleasant with good service. Will definitely recommend to others and will return when I'm in the area. Alesonly - 14 Feb 2008 20:46 |
