    One of the most wonderful, atmospheric and beautiful pubs in the area. Great staff and great beer, what's more to ask for? The team have kept this pub true to it's original form whilst ensuring it's clean and well looked after. The beer selection ranges from some great lagers to a few more hard to come by IPAs, including at the time of writing a Vedett Pilsner. We were really looked after by the pub staff and will be back again.

    A village community pub in old Clerkenwell. Established 1884 this narrow front terrace pub has a beautiful green tiled facade in front of a spacious, single room around a square centre bar. Gorgeous aged, original floor with cellar trap under a variety of low seats & plenty of tables. This well loved pub has modernised, pretty rustic wood cladding on the walls & bar to compliment from original floor through squared & harlequin windows to cladding ceiling. It's dressed down but features theatrical art & original centrepiece fireplace. An excellent beer selection from 20th century bar set near…

    A charming independent pub near Angel, tucked away just off the main road. The drinks were enjoyable, with a nicely poured pint of Blue Moon for £6.50 and a good quality rosé. The snack options—Torres crisps and some Perello olives—were a nice addition. The bartender was friendly enough, though not overly chatty. The pub garden, while small, was busy, while the interior was quiet and cozy. The decor adds to the inviting vibe, and it’s easy to imagine it being even more magical around Christmas. The space feels like a blend of British and Southern European. It’s not the most obvious spot, so…

    The Harlequin is the best pub in the area. It’s easy to come with a group, with friends, on a date, or solo with a book. Nice beer selection, great nachos, and it’s open late too. The bartenders Tania and Matheus make the place feel like home. 5 stars.

    Lovely small pub with a great selection of beers. Off the beaten track so perfect for a relaxed catch-up.
