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 dressed individuals and the odd beer lover. Behind the bar there is a fish tank embedded in the back wall which adds a nice relaxing touch and although there are not a large number of places to sit it doesn’t ever get too crowded. Easily the nicest bar in the area.
The only downside for me was the bar men who remained grumpy through my visit asking every individual young or old for ID and frowning at people that ordered anything which required a mixer. Despite the service the pub deserves a 7/10 rating.

I am 25 years old and visited this pub with my parents. Although I look a bit younger than my age, I certainly don’t look under 18. When they aked for ID i didn’t have any on me so I said I’ll just have a diet coke and we’ll get some food. they said we couldn’t even eat in the pub becuase I had no ID so we had to leave! An awful, boring and pretencious pub.

With regards to ID it is our policy and a legal requirement to ask for ID from anyone whom we believe maybe under 21. This is not a ‘personal attack’ on people and it is there to serve the purpose of keeping this pubs reputation as a responsible food and drink venue. We work very closely with the local authorities and police to ensure we have appropriate measures in place to ensure the safety of minors and the public as a whole. By being vigilant to this degree has seen us maintain a socially acceptable environment and being awarded for this. I would always recommend carrying some form of ID when visiting drinking venues as the law applies more pressure to licensees this ‘ID check’ will become the norm and will happen more and more frequently especially around Christmas time.
As for being asked to leave the pub, I apologise as this is not necessary and you are fine to eat within the pub even if under 18 - however we also have a policy of no minors after 7pm. This is for their own safety and we strongly believe that a public house is not a suitable environment for minors after this time. If you had visited us before 7pm then again please accept my apologies and I hope you will visit us again and have a much better experience.
