One of my favourite pubs in London. A small pub with a big heart. Well chosen ales on draught & in bottles. Brilliant wine and spirit selection should you feel inclined too. Oh and the food is ace!

Great beer selection for a smaller pub thats a little off of the beaten track. Always a good cider or 2, a lager or 2 and a couple great ales - even some pretty good food :)

Difficult to find good seating at times, but definitely come here for lunch or dinner - the food is sublime, as is their beer selection.

The best pub in the area. Awesome bar snacks, good beer, lovely atmosphere although it can get busy. Look out for the fantastic maps in the dining room!

The second best pub in Angel according to our recent poll. The superior sausage roll and preponderance of London maps tempt us into declaring it the best.

Amazing lock pub with great French food and a wonderful selection of beers.

Good selection of not just ale on draft, but also bottled. A wee local with a big heart (and great hand soap in the loos!)

Vegetarian mushroom Wellington is a TREAT. This pub is a winner all round.

Amazing atmosphere and lovely, cosy interior. It's a shame that food is really overpriced though.

Good food and very relaxed atmosphere. The wine list leaves something to be desired though...

The best pub in Angel - and there are a lot of pubs in Angel. Great food, a pleasing selection of maps, good beers and right cosy. Read more
