Cant actually say too much about the venue as we were there for a neon life drawing class upstairs (which was ace!). But we did grab one quick drink the the staff couldnt have been more pleasant. Had a nice happy atmosphere in the bar. Would revisit for sure.

Nice decor and polite staff, Sunday roast was a decent price and average portion size. Toilet facilities not very clean!

Fast becoming one of my favorite pubs in Islington, and therefore London. Fantastic atmosphere, super cool aesthetic, staff are great, and their burgers, wow.. also, fun fact: they say they have the oldest functioning fireplace in London

Classic pub with the so much sought after classic pub flair. Ambience really nice with lots of regents heads on the walls to commemorate the name.Joined a pub quiz and met a random stranger who asked to join our group. Sensational vibe and really good and funny quiz master (mistress?)

Great setting but the service and staff seem to never had worked in a pub before - watching someone figuring out how to open a bottle of wine for the first time is not what I come to a pub for. Later buying a bottle of white wine and getting it at room temperature.This place was so good what happened ? If you want to go to a pub spend your hard earned money to help train their staff go to the old queens head.

I came here with my friends for the Sunday roast menu and it was good!It was a bit busy but for as busy as it was the staff were extremely friendly and attentive and regularly checked to see if we were okay. Their recommendations on food and drinks were spot on too.The pub itself is a little too dark and gloomy for my liking but I suppose that’s what makes it unique. We were sat up stairs and I do feel the tables are quite close together but it was bearable.The food was lovely I finished my plate and the drinks were very nice.I would definitely return but probably opt to be seated downstairs as the upstairs is just too gloomy for my liking. Overall - good

Lovely pub, great atmosphere but struggle understand Camden Hells glasses are a pint to the brim. Heaven forbid do you ask for a top up, maybe just a certain staff member as the majority are lovely

Really beautiful interior and lovely staff, especially our waitress Laura who was so kind. Food was tasty and filling, can’t wait to return. Only downside was that it was quite cold where we sat, which made it a bit uncomfortable.

Came here for Sunday roast, great food and great service. We had AJ as our server and they were fantastic. Hospitality is about the environment as much as the service - you want to have an experience that’s different from ordering from Deliveroo. AJ made our visit perfect- don’t lose them!

The staff are really friendly and nice and thats why I gave 4 stars..Food though is average, nothing special about it, even though their El chappo burger is rated 2nd best in London, but I didnt find it that special..I arrived during the happy hour and got to experience some of their cocktails for 5 pounds which was a plus, they do some really special stuff.

Fair price for a good amount of Sunday roast. And if you’re hungry, don’t want to risk your money, and get some good Sunday, this is the place.

Beautiful pub with a very, very good burger (albeit a little wet and sloppy, which is a good thing when youre drinking!). It gets pretty busy on the weekends, but thats what happens when a place has good vibes.

Buzzy atmosphere pretty much 7 nightsAll of the Grub is 5 ⭐️ nachos are insane 🤌🏽Great spot. Only reason not 5 stars overall is it can be a bit of a wait to get drinks at the bar and 1 of the bouncers is an absolute headcase

I went to the Queens (as my friends and I now call iton a Wednesday when we were in the area. We went in and found out they were doing 5£ cocktails all night, so of course we stayed there. But the staff was amazing and so welcoming, especially Phoebe and AJ, they made us feel right at home. We also discovered that they have a night club on the weekend. So now this is our favorite hang out place whenever we want a good night!

I love this place, its so beautiful and theres so much history to it. But please, weve moved on in terms of vegan food availability. It should no longer be the realm of its same as the veggie but with less items, but well charge you the same. Vegans are tired of having this discussion and it puts us off venues. Please have a think about your vegan offer, you could even have a crack at the holy grail, a decent vegan Yorkshire pud. Then youd effortlessly be five stars! X

Atrocious nachos. Cold, stale and tasteless.Pub quiz night is overcharged, and dragged out so you stay in and order more drinks. Do yourself a favour and pick another place for a fun night out.

Really nice pub, the roast came cold at first, we told the staff and they brought another one.We ordered roast beef and it was really good this second time. Enough gravy, nice roasted potatos and really tender beef.So, even if the first impression was not good, at the end we left happy

We came here for the Sunday roast and it did not disappoint! All of the staff were so friendly, chatty and attentive. All of them asked how our day was going. The place was pretty busy and had a nice atmosphere with music. The pub itself had some old decor but it gave it that cosy old school vibe. It also had three floors and private karaoke rooms. The toilets were located on the ground floor and the top floor. Top floor toilets were clean and quirky. It also had a little garden area. I had the beef Sunday roast(£15.95and my friend had the lamb Sunday roast(£14.95). We also had the sticky toffee pudding(£5.00). The menu was a good size with just the right amount of options. The meat was cooked perfectly and the gravy had a nice taste. The carrots and parsnip were just the right texture for me, soft but not overly soft. The potatoes could have been crispier but it wasn’t a problem. The dessert was tasty.The portion was good. I would say it was worth the money. Will definitely be revisiting.

Came here for Sunday roast and it was fantastic! They were able to accommodate a larger group and I personally loved the chicken roast it was really well cooked. Also cant leave without getting a sticky toffee pudding to top it off.

Visited before Christmas to have a lovely Christmas dinner with my friends. Food was tasty and served hot. Dishes were served quite quick also. Chicken dish I had had good flavours. Portions are generous 👍🏼 The dinning space upstairs is a nice place to bring friends for a good hearty meal!

Fantastic Christmas roast. Vibrant atmosphere and a slightly louder setting for a Sunday roast, for a more fast paced and lively affair. Likely not a place for a family meal, but definitely appealing to friend groups and those looking to escalate things quickly.Excellent, delicious food and wine options.Amazing, authentic traditional decor also with karaoke and games rooms.

The best vegetarian Wellington in London! And great beers too. Pretty massive serving size too. We shared two of these between three people.It was crowded downstairs but we managed to find a table upstairs. Nice hip crowd. It was a bit too loud for conversation but not any more than any other London pub.
