Irish pub on Holloway Road in Lower Holloway.

They don't have any handpumps, but obviously they have Guinness, and they also offer Tayto brand crisps. The building looks quite big from the outside, but there's less space inside than you might expect, with the drinking area wrapped around the bar and opening up into a pool room towards the back. It's dark and cosy rather than light and airy, but this works well.

Kake and Laura visited on a Thursday afternoon in April 2009 to meet up with a couple of friends before having dinner in the Kazakh restaurant on the top floor. A cup of tea was £1.20. Service was friendly enough. A TV was showing cricket, and music was playing very quietly in the background.

Accessibility: A step or two up to get in, but it's on the level once you're in.
