Britannia Public House in Islington

Fantastic local pub with very friendly regulars and staff. We visited on a Sunday afternoon with our dog and were made to feel very welcome. There was karaoke on and the atmosphere was great. The pub doesn’t serve food BUT you can bring your own food, or have it delivered from outside. Well worth a visit.

Lovely pub with an Irish atmosphere. Irish beers can be found. The staff members were very nice and friendly. Very efficient and superb service here. We had a very nice time.

Proper old school locals boozer, friendly vibe and really cool old memorabilia adding to the character. Good selection of beers, including the best Guinness I’ve ever had outside of Ireland! Draught Diet Coke tasted a bit bland - maybe an issue with the syrup levels but no biggy at all. Nice landlord and good selection of bar snacks. Show sport too. Would highly recommend!

🚇 Old Street 🍺 £5.95 Moretti ❤️ A fine example of what a traditional London pub should be. . The Britannia is located in a quiet backstreet in St Lukes. Getting here is easy, Old Street station is a pleasant ten minute walk away. . A pub has occupied this corner plot in this London Parish since the mid 19th century. The current building is unmistakably interwar and was built in 1939. . This pub has a 100% island bar at its centre which has number of cask badges above. The decor here is superb, there’s dark wood panelling, red upholstered seating and then throw in a proper pub carpet for good measure. There’s lots of bric a brac dotted around on shelves and ledges around the bar, there is even a life size James Dean statue which frightened the life out of me as I caught a glimpse of him out of the corner of my eye. This has to be the cleanest pub in London, this pub is immaculately clean. . The beer choice was diverse with a bit of something for everyone. I chose a Moretti which was a lovely pint and reasonably priced at under six quid. . I was served by the landlady who was charming, welcoming and chatty. We spoke about trade over the August bank holiday weekend and the weather as you do. There were a few other local punters in, a couple of lads on the way to the Arsenal and an older couple having a lunch time sip. The atmosphere was relaxed and chilled, the environment here makes for an excellent pub experience. . I absolutely loved this pub as it reminded me of pubs I grew up in the 70’s & 80’s. This is definitely one for the traditionalists and pub enthusiasts alike. One of my favourite pubs I’ve visited this year. . ℹ️ Info correct on visiting 27/08/22
