The food here is great. What I love though is the extensive beer garden which doesn't feel like you're in London at all! Great for a drink/lunch after a romp across Kenwood or the Heath.
Cozy place for a Sunday roast. I had read several reviews about Spaniard's Sunday roast and was expecting a bit more, but all in all, a good experience if you are around Hampstead area.
One of my secret spots in London. Excellent outdoor vibe combined with a good Sunday roast. Don’t forget about the dessert, brownie and cheesecake are the highlights.
Perfect place to escape London madness. Mostly locals. Authenticpub feel, mainly because it's an authenticpub. Excellent food and the desserts are amazing.
good ales, good food and amazing place. It's hard to believe you'r still in London and not in the middle of english countryside... the huge patio is the perfect place ehere enjoy a beer in summer time
Try the potted caramel and the house red. Apart from one excellent waiter, service was a shambles and the Sunday roast was average and overpriced. Try the red lion and sun in Highgate instead
Politely ask the Barman and he will show you the scrapbook that documents the ghost sighting and hauntings at this 16th century pub, including the highway robber Dick Turpin.
With peanut butter & banana chews, cheesesnacks and beef bones there is something for even the fussiest mutt – just be careful that wagging tail doesn’t send your drink flying. Read more
Was once great. Regular customer for 5 years, never again. 40% price increase on food in the past 2 months and this is what you get for £14. Absolute Joke. Too many other great places worth the money.
28 December: It was built in 1585, and was for many years a tollgate inn, forming the entrance to the Bishop of London's estate. The tollgate remains and traffic is reduced to one lane outside.
Pretty rubbish BBQ. Very overcooked burgers. Everything else very average, with above average prices. Nice garden so come for drinks and eat elsewhere before or after.
This historic pub on the site of a tollgate was once the haunt of highwaymen, who when caught were hanged nearby. The pub appears in Dickens’ Pickwick Papers and in Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
