Price

Pros:

  • "Prices are right."
  • "Drinks were Islington prices...but didn't break the bank!"
  • "Decent pub, food is cheap for London especially being on Upper St."

Cons:

  • "Due to 'Dynamic Pricing' my pint of 3.5% Pale Ale was £8.25."
  • "However, £8 for a pint of beer is absolutely ridiculous."
  • "I could not believe the prices in here!"
  • "Decor fine, locality excellent but prices woefully extortionate."
  • "Having paid £7.10 for a Neck oil in early April, I was charged £8.10!"
  • "Paid nearly £18 for two drinks, when I questioned it the barmaid said it was 'event pricing'."
  • "Nice place, but 'surge pricing' almost 10 quid for a beer and different pricing at different times seems a bit disingenuous."

  • "Gave up after 1 hour wait, when told my order of 2 Sunday roasts would take another 20 mins."

  • "Ever since I tried the fried chicken wings I've been totally addicted to them! Delicious!"
  • "Although it was a busy Sunday and they ran out of most of what we were interested in on the menu - Giovanni guided us to a buttermilk chicken sandwich and some peri-peri/bbq wings that sufficed my (h)anger."

Cons:

  • "Food is terrible too. The worst fish and chips ever! Soggy batter and dry chips."
  • "The food itselfs was grim, the nachos were particularly bad, low quality ingredients and I had a burger, which was cold & burnt with a side of dry chips."

  • "My pie was so dry."
  • "The food was clearly not fresh - nuggets seemed to have been stored improperly."
