Pub in Barnet. Was in the 2007 Good Beer Guide, but not the 2008 one. Quite close to some nice countryside (it's only <i>just</i> on the A-Z), so handy for walkers.

[[Kake]] visited on a Thursday afternoon around 3pm. There were about half a dozen other customers, all men, bit of quiet conversation, but mostly people just sitting there with a pint and the paper. Staff were friendly enough, and nobody seemed to think I was weird for being a woman in a pub on my own. There was no music.
 Food is served noon–4pm and 6pm–9pm, according to the top half of their web page, and noon–9pm according to the bottom half. Not sure which is more accurate. Similarly, the top half of their web page thinks they're open until 1am Thu–Sat and midnight otherwise, again in disagreement with the bottom half of the page.

Pride was &pound;2.60/pint, and they also had Courage Directors, Bombardier, and Greene King IPA.

Food is served noon–4pm and 6pm–9pm, according to the top half of their web page, and noon–9pm according to the bottom half. Not sure which is more accurate. The menu is fairly short. Sandwiches range from &pound;3.40 (ham and wholegrain mustard) via &pound;4 (tuna, spring onion, and cheddar melt) to &pound;5 (chicken club or ploughmans club). Mains are between &pound;5 (ploughmans lunch) and &pound;6.50 (gammon, egg, and chips), and jacket potatoes are &pound;5. The sides/snacks/starters selection is on the "interesting" side of standard: chips (&pound;1.80), hummous and pitta bread (&pound;2.80), mixed salad (&pound;3), nachos (&pound;3.50), and sausages with sweet chilli dip (&pound;3.75). The chips were perfectly fine, and a generous portion. They also have proper salt and pepper grinders, which is a good sign in terms of thought being put into the food.

The decor is clean-looking, and the tables are nice and big (but not too big). There's some kind of beer garden out the back, and a few of those table/bench things out the front.

A sign spotted in September 2007 said that quiz night is Thursday.
