• Tufnell Park Tavern is the latest re-incarnation of Tufnells, which has had an appalling history of closures. Now taken over by Home Made Pubs, which is an independantish chain! It is expensive but really nice and just what the area needed. Drinks are good - interesting wines, two well kept ales. Decent beer garden.
• the carling academy...is dark...
• The Mitre (Upper Street) - gorgeous barmen, cheap drinks, great atmosphere. O'Neils and The Walkabout (Upper Street) - great if you want a boogie. Brilliant music and a very happy enthusiastic atmosphere!
• Purle Turtle on essex road for a drunken giggle with cockney rebels (sorry most not so cockney) The Angel, to get wan*ered with out taking out a bank loan,
• Check out new pub on Liverpool Road "The Barnsbury". We went after reviews on London Eating website and had a great meal/evening. Definitely worth a mention on yr pages.

• A new pub has appeared in Upper St! The Royal Mail is now the Jorene Celeste. The name may be familiar to people as there is also one in Kentish Town. The decor has changed from a dingey carpeted smelly pub to a clean place with wooden floors, paintings on cream walls and a huge selection of spirits and liquers behind the bar!!
