| 'lookmother' is right. Its a great pub, but too many times I've encountered a surfeit of kids here. One visit saw a toddler escape and attempt to become a DJ, while one afternoon I found more children than adults in residence. Planner_21 - 22 Jul 2007 21:00 |
| Great pub in many, many ways. The staff are very very friendly and the pub grub is great (especially the steak and mushroom pie). BUT there's two big downsides to the place: 1. Music volume - I'm pretty sure that about half of the pub doesn't have any speakers - as a result the music is hideously loud in some parts of the pub to make up for the lack of speakers elsewhere. I've had many an evening ruined by having to scream at people sat two yards away from me. Also, when a pub is near on empty, having German showtunes blaring out at 1000 decibels is just going to force out the people already in there - not attract passerbys! 2. Nowt they can really do about this, but the place often turns into a creche on Saturday and Sundays. Personally, I can think of better places to hold a 3 year old's birthday party than a smoky pub but there you go... Apart from that it's grand. I suppose you should go on a weeknight and WATCH OUT FOR SPEAKER! lookmother - 22 May 2007 17:00 |
| Had a great Evening here last month, some good food a lovely pint of guiness. Then to my surprise they had a great comedy night which starts at around 8.30pm firsts tuesday of the month, and was one of the best comedy nights i have been to in a while. It also does music on a friday, which i am yet to expierience, if your a comedy Fan this is a must, a good selection of well-known and less well-known comics. DannyB28 - 3 Feb 2007 14:47 |
| The Princess Alexandra was transformed in Autumn 2006. And what a transformation! It's still a 'local' pub, but rather than being the place you headed to when everywhere else has closed, it's now the best place in Crouch End to meet at the start of the evening (and you'll probably stay there). The food is fabulous, and the menu changes regularly. There's a real fire, conservatory and garden. Get there early on a Friday (live music) if you want a seat. Snapper - 24 Jan 2007 21:07 |
