The Flask Pub

Pleasant surprise; is one way to describe this rather well hidden yet large pub with all its character, pampered with young trendy folk with a big beer garden out front, heaters and a canopy.

The Red Lion and Sun

No longer the smokey dungeon of its dubious past, but a gastro-pub restored to some level of glory - a proud feel about the place with well dressed clientele in a mess of twenty-somethings and OAPs. The barmen are a huddle of gents in their thirties serving the growing crowd with some haste [...]

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

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
 
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 [...]
