The Coach & Horses in Tottenham

You know, when you step into The Coach & Horses, it's like walking into your favourite local straight away – the staff are so friendly and make you feel part of the gang right off the bat. It's got this fantastic buzz, especially if you're into Tottenham Spurs; the memorabilia and pre-game atmosphere are just brilliant for getting into the spirit. I love how they've got a great outdoor area with shaded spots, ideal for chatting over a pint on a nice evening, and the prices are fair enough that you don't have to think twice about ordering another round. On the flip side, though, it's pretty much a Spurs haven, so if football isn't your thing, it might come across as a bit one-track. Plus, without a website, it's not the easiest to plan a visit in advance, and on big match days, access is limited to fans only, which could leave you out in the cold. All in all, it's a solid spot for a relaxed catch-up, but it's best suited to those who share the football passion – gives it that authentic, community feel without trying too hard.
