About Swimmer At The Grafton Arms
Traditional tavern with a patio, dishing up small plates, burgers & pub grub, plus Sunday roast.
May 2022 - we understand that Remarkable Pubs are ending their trade arrangement with Fuller's and shifting to Shepherd Neame. We await to see what Shep's beer(s) will be stocked.
Excellent single bar traditional pub with covered courtyard with heaters. Some very nice architectural features, including an impressive back gantry, and a pleasant front terrace. Food serving times (from an open kitchen in the bar) vary so check their website for details. Guest beers from the likes of Butcombe and Hammerton. Keg beers from many London breweries. Being just off the busy Holloway Road gives the place a nice, relaxed feel.

Great pub with a variety of beers to suit everyone! The fish and chips was enormous so really worth its price. On the other hand, the mushrooms with cheese were disappointing as there almost no mushrooms, I wouldn't recommend it. The service was adequate, it's a self service so you have to go to the bar to order anything. The atmosphere is the classic one of a British pub. Bonus point for having a nice yard so you can sit outside when the weather is nice.

We had a wonderful family outing at the pub this Sunday! The food was delicious, and there was plenty of space for the kids to play. They really enjoyed the games provided, which made for a relaxed and enjoyable afternoon for us as parents. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a family-friendly spot!

Solid atmosphere, open fire, jukebox and great choice of books and board games. Large outdoor space with shelter and heating. Function room but didn't get a visit. Decent value but a welcoming local pub for whose in the know.

This is my favourite pub in this part of town. They have a good selection of beers and whisky (including cask beers). I paid £12.60 for a Bones lager and a Neck Oil. The food here is excellent, check out the 2 for 1 burgers on a Monday evening. This pub can get busy on Arsenal home games but there is jupstairs seating as well as a large exterior seating area. The service is always good. There is free iced water at the bar and a free to play juke box. A delightful pub well worth a visit, but check opening times first because it does not open until 5pm during the week.
