Tapping the Admiral

North London


Enjoy a fine selection of real ale in this cosy, eclectic, nautical-themed award-winning boozer. Regulars keep the bar propped up and the dimly lit location's atmosphere is enhanced by a friendly pub cat. Ask the bar staff to explain the pub's name. Hint: the admiral in question lords over Trafalgar Sq.
