San Pino Bar and Restaurant

The Crown and Horseshoes

The Crown and Horseshoes is a very quaint country pub set in the picturesque setting of canal-side among willow trees: all fully pedestrianised. The main interior of the pub is a fair size with some low ceilings that could do with some repair, but serving well in the winter as a cosy [...]

Trios Banqueting Suites

 Set in the quiet town of palmers green, the trios banqueting suites has the kind of frontage that would warrant every pedestrian to walk past and never notice that this place was here. Sure enough this two storey venue offers large dinner parties and receptions to those eager to throw a private family [...]
