This historic Islington establishment operates as both a traditional pub and restaurant, featuring an innovative kitchen residency program that rotates different culinary teams through its compact space. Currently hosting Rake, which serves seafood-focused dishes from Wednesday through Sunday, the venue maintains separate areas including a front pub section for casual drinking and dining, plus a quieter back snug and garden area available for table reservations. The venue welcomes families and their pets during daytime hours, with weekend lunch service running Saturday afternoons and all day Sunday until late afternoon. Due to licensing restrictions, children cannot remain on the premises after 7pm, which limits evening family dining options but keeps daytime visits accessible for pet owners seeking a relaxed meal with their companions. Operating Tuesday through Sunday with varying kitchen hours, this two-century-old pub combines the atmosphere of a classic neighborhood boozer with rotating restaurant concepts, creating a unique dining environment where both casual pub-goers and diners can enjoy the space together.
