If you love old pubs then I think you will love this one, it’s located in Kentish Town not far from Camden Town overground on Royal college street. It’s a very traditional looking pub with a strong Irish background. Not only can you enjoy a pint, but apparently the food is to die for.
It has a really lovely and quaint outside space at the back which is so rare in london as space is at a premium. The walls alone makes this place somewhere to visit and the countless guitars and and musical instruments hanging from the ceiling are fascinating, if you take a look at the photographs I took you will get a feel of this place.
It’s got character unlike some of the new watering holes that just have plain white walls, you can stare at the many peculiar items in display and feel like you have actually gone to the pub. The range of drinks is strong and as you can imagine, you can buy a lovely pint of Guinness on draft, gin and tonic with the best tonic Schweppes. Let me know what you think...

The bartender got upset when we ordered something other than beer and even more upset when we ordered our food by the name of the dish, rather than using the number on the menu. After the bartender grabbed the menu and slammed it down onto the bar in front of me and wrote the number for each item, I felt like we’d done something wrong just by being there. Does he not want customers, I wondered. Does he resent having to take food orders? I don’t know. We spent much of the meal wondering what was wrong with this person. It made us so upset that it was hard to enjoy our meal, which wasn’t bad. But not worth dealing with the...
