Randomness Guide to London Menu

The Faltering Fullback seems to enjoy cult status within the distinctive locale of Stroud Green, which thrives on independent businesses such as this one. Set on a corner of two quiet residential roads, this place is something of a tardis. It wasn't until my third visit that I realised just how big it really is! Beyond the small intimate front bar, with a bizarre assortment of objects hanging from the ceiling, are two side bars; and beyond these is a huge 'back room' where major sporting events are shown (including, obviously, Rugby matches). There is also a two level outdoor seating deck behind the pub.

There are real ales on tap in addition to the usual selection of lager, draft beer and Guinness.

Food is served every evening between 6:30 and 10:30. The menu, like many other pubs in the area, is Thai, and usually fairly good value for money.

There is a good pub quiz on Tuesdays(?).
