The Old Queens Head — Restaurant in London

One of the most beautiful pubs in London with the best tasting food. This place has it all, but I think I was sold by the beautiful interior and 17th century fireplace which had a fire going. Nice seating, friendly staff and beautiful decorations made for a great experience. The Sunday roast was what I had come for though so let's talk about that. I am extremely critical of a roast so I don't take these things lightly. We had the chicken roast and the beef roasts with a side of the cauliflower cheese. Starting with that, this cauliflower cheese was one of the best I've ever had with a mix of cheeses I couldn't put my finger on. Creamy, cheesy and delicious with the cauliflower cut up nice and small to maximize cheese!. The roasts were a thing of perfection, with the star strangely being the gravy. Normally a second thought but here each dish had its own type and they were so good. The tender chicken and well cooked beef meant everything was great. Along with them came roast potatoes, which had been seasoned! Can't tell you how shocked I am to find so many places serving up plain potatoes. There were also roasted carrots. They were sliced long and charred, something totally new to me and I was sold. Along with some kale, parsnips and massive Yorkshire puddings, we left very stuffed and very happy! Also, get some cocktails,...

Really gutted that I had a bad experience as I was looking forward to this so much. Popped in to have dinner before going to the theatre by myself. Atmosphere in the pub is lovely, I really like the decor. I went up to the bar to order and the man who served me was quite snappy and blunt which already made me feel dejected. I ordered a Gus Fring burger without buffalo sauce, and chips. I also ordered a pint of coke. Coke was great, fries were delicious but unfortunately the burger was just awful. I left 90% of it due to a deep worry of food poisoning. The chicken was wet, slightly off coloured. I even texted my partner who was away and asked for an opinion, and we both agreed that it would be better for me to leave the burger. Since this meal last night, I have felt quite unwell and I have to believe this is due to the burger. The other stickler was that a burger, chips and drink cost me £20.50 at this establishment. £20 to have barely any dinner because the burger was not cooked properly? I find that really quite awful and disappointing as I enjoyed the fries and loved the vibe. It's a real shame that this happened because I was really hoping for a nice dinner, and unfortunately all I had was a little basket of chips and less in my...

Probably the best Roast Chicken in London?!

The Old Queens Head is a local pub in the Angel station, Essex Road area of North London

Pros: If it's a Sunday, order the Sunday Roast Chicken! You won't be disappointed. The chicken is cooked in a 12 hour sous vide method is incredibly moist, succulent and juicy! Tasty, plentiful and great value for money! Service is wonderful too! Matthew's team were so friendly and accommodating. They very kindly accommodated my pregnant wife and cooked her lamb a bit more well done. Roast potatoes are very nice. Very soft! Lovely decor too! Very picturesque and photogenic inside! Great WiFi too!

Cons: None really. A little bit far from Angel tube station. But definitely worth it for the tasty Sunday roast chicken.

In short, Old Queens Head is an unassuming local pub in north London. But surprisingly serves possibly the best, juiciest, most succulent and most tender Sunday roast Chicken in London! And at incredible value at £17.9 on a Sunday! In short, well done to Matthew and his team at the Old Queens Head! Just go and and try the roast chicken! You won't regret it. I definitely will be coming back. Especially for the tasty Corn Fed Roast Chicken with the Garlic Aioli! Well done Old...
