The Well (Muswell Hill - London)

February 4th, 2008 · No Comments

The Well

When a pub lives up it’s name it can be a wonderful thing but “the well” is “the pits”. It sits quite quietly on edge of the high street in Muswell hill and within is a bar with a bad selection of drinks (except the whisky is apparently respectable) one of two fruit machines […]

Boogaloo Bar (Highgate - London)

September 20th, 2007 · 1 Comment

Boogaloo Bar

A small poky music hall apparently pulling odd bands for secret gigs and a few drinkers. The place is basically divided between this tight indoor affair and a larger, well fashioned garden-style bar area. The indoor bar is a small affair at the back of the main room, with a woody exterior and offering […]

The Famous Royal Oak

Hidden from any sign of of the civilisation at the top of muswell hill this pub somewhat retains a crowd. As you approach there are two outdoor televisions on a large outdoor terrace. Some of the area is under cover and in the summer one can expect fresh BBQ food. Inside is […]

The Winchester Pub & Hotel (Highgate - london)

The Winchester Pub & Hotel

Out of the blue this totally done up venture in Highgate really works to pull the best of small crowds in the area. A spray of tables outside allow you to sit with pint in hand only a breath away from the busy road and the place is lit up […]

Rose and Crown (Highgate Village - London)

Rose and Crown

A medium to small wooden bar occupies this quiet spot in the village of Highgate. It is a simplicity of pub - like front, wood panelling interior with tiny bar and a small beer garden at the back. At night there is a half glow of candles and the striking red walls and […]

The Angel Inn (Highgate Village - London)

The Angel Inn
 
A medium sized trendy pub in this exclusive quiet corner of north London. There is a plentiful selection of food and wines but the surprise was the large selection of continental beers, the bar is virtually littered with different shaped taps and pumps and the clientele are a mixture of middle aged well […]

Archway Tavern Music Hall (Archway- London)

Archway Tavern Music Hall

Behind the archway tavern is a music hall, you probably wouldn’t know it was there unless you were specifically invited to a gig by some small local unsigned band so hence I ended up here. You pay for the entry on the door which is normally £5 and then inside to a […]

The Archway Tavern (Archway - London)

The Archway Tavern

Seemingly huge from outside this place is actually a pub split into a couple of other venues, opening at different times and on different days. This trip to the singular front pub revealed it to be a very cheap nest very close to the tube station. In entry it feels like the pub […]

Haha Bar (Muswell Hill - London)

Haha Bar & Canteen

This was the first Haha bar I had ever been in, in a rather strange location in Muswell hill of all places. Going in the bar is to the left with other seating to the right consisting of big heavy tables, tables mounted on pillars and couches, all the worst to sit […]

The Lion (Archway - London)

The Lion

An all-male Irish hole in the side of another bigger building in Archway. Entering to the sound of bad 50’s pop ballards is not half as bad as having your table taken from you while you are still occupying it by an old man with one eye. The bar staff are not particularly friendly […]
