North London
In this lovely, light-filled pub, elegantly turned out in dark wood and whitewashed walls, you'll find a meaty menu of international dishes, all imbued with a smoky flavour; everything is grilled, roasted or smoked on the premises – from the poussin to the crab bisque. Ingredients are carefully sourced and skilfully combined, and there is a particularly extensive beer list.
The leafy little garden is a boon in warmer months.
