The York, Islington

this pub is given a hard time by alot of customers, I use it regularly on the way home from work to the tube, for food and drinks, although mainly the real ales I admit, I have sadly been witness to very overworked staff taking torrents of verbal abuse and occasional glasses being thrown them,and yet they still try to smile and do their minimum wage job! Give them a break! as for the eejit moaning about dirty glasses, take it you never visit a wetherspoons then?

Haven't been here for ages, but glad I made it back -it has definitely had a clean up! Bar staff smile more now too. Real ales were excellent, nice to see the old speckled hen on tap, have not had a pint of that in ages. Wasn't going to eat but caught a waft of someone else's burger and had one myself - very pleasanty surprised, massive portion, tasted far better than expected, and best of all they are still showing sport (unlike so many others in upper st). Thank goodness for you York! I shall be returning en masse regularly!
