Relaxed sort of pub, no bitter on pump but there is Pitfield Bitter and Eco Warrior in bottles. Does live music and comedy nights and seems to have some connection with the local Greek community. But giggers beware, the stage is tiny and the pub is an odd shape - half cut in half as though there had once been two bars and they were semi knocked through into one. (There may be also people in the audience talking loudly and ignoring you, but that happens all over the place). The extension area at the back may be bland but gives the place (formerly the George IV I believe) much needed extra space.
As to the area being 'rough' I left at 10 pm and it was not a trouble, despite being close to the Caledonian Road.

I have never, ever encountered such needlessly rude staff in my entire life. Avoid.

I live round the corner from this place and didn't know it existed! Even so, the equivalent of Beirut?! This is steps away from Barnsbury - one of the nicest looking places to live in North London!

No real ale, and in a somewhat dodgy part of town (if you cycle, don't even think about leaving your bike chained up outside); but this pub does have a very pleasant laid back atmosphere. Has a nice beer garden out the back. Not worth going miles out of your way for, but if you happen to be on the lower stretches of Caledonian Road, pop in for a few.

An ok pub, and friendly. I once saw in here grown men and women break-dancing on a bit of lido taped to the floor. Whats that about? Oh, and it is in the north London equivilent of Beiruit, so when you leave at 11pm its not a pleasent experience, to say the least.
