1820s pub which is now a Grade II listed building and on CAMRA's London Regional inventory. Originally at least four bars, it has been opened up around an island bar, although still retaining the feel of two separate bars. Lots of etched glass and some original, Victorian ornate snob screens, divorced from their original setting. There is an outdoor drinking area at the front. Despite an extensive food menu, it is still primarily a locals' pub. Hoegaarden on draught.

📍The Crown 🌍 Back streets of Islington 🏛 Nice-looking corner pub with outdoor seating and street tables. Inside is a beautifully curved bowl-shaped bar and plenty of etched glass. I'd say there's been a fair amount of interior design done here, but it all looks classy. There's a bar area for drinkers and two dining areas for gastropub fans. 🙋♂️ The pub's a good one, if a little dark, and the food was very enjoyable. Clearly effort has gone in to creating the right mood. 🍺 Pretty standard. Siren and Deya stood out amongst London Pride and Hophead. Don't get me wrong, both of the latter…

First time here would recommend it also The plant-based burger is better than the beef one. Even though I usually eat meat burgers, I highly recommend it. It's delicious

We went here after a really disappointing experience at The Albion and, fortunately, it was the best decision. This pub is a real English pub. Nothing pretentious. Exactly what we were looking for. The food was really good! We ordered a Sunday roast and triple fried fries. 10/10 They have a huuuuuge variety of tap beers! Really really good although a little bit expensive.£7 for a pint. The service was great tho! People were very kind and attentive. There was a very disgusting smell inside the pub that made us hesitate a lot if entering or not 😥

Went here last Saturday night. Good beer, excellent food and service and toilets. In a lovely area but not snooty. Thanks so much to Australian barmaid for amazing service, and photo out the front - fun night!

A delightful pub with more engraved glass than you can throw a stone at. Late Victorian corner street pub with a high ceiling and a light and airy feel to it. There is a great range of both keg and cask beers on offer. The people behind the bar are a cheery bunch offering great customer service. Food is flying out from the kitchen at an impressive rate leading to many contented faces around the tables. Super place to visit. The extra photos were just to recognize the "ghost sign" for the ex chemist up the road.
