Engineer

North London


The dictionary definition of a beautiful backstreet boozer, the Engineer is all dark wood, cosy booths and unvarnished tables, and has a hidden garden dripping with vines and potted plants. Drinks range from standards to unexpected British craft brews and fine wines, and there's a posh pub food menu. A short walk from the tube station but a world away from Camden's madness.
