Review of The Queens

04 Sep 07, 11:11

Reliable pub grub in a gorgeous location 3*

The Queens has been a regular haunt of mine - when I lived in Primrose Hill it was my local (and a really good one at the time) and its position makes it a great, easy-to-find watering hole for out-of-town friends and locals alike.

The great thing about The Queens is that it doesn't oversell itself. I wouldn't say it's a gastro pub, but it is a slight upscale, pleasantly shabby pub in a beautiful setting on the edge of Primrose Hill park. It has a separate dining room upstairs and does decent food: they have a good lunch menu of traditional pub fare mixed with slightly more ambitious stuff. It's a little on the expensive side (£9 for fish and chips) - but you are paying for the location.

Last weekend we had lunch there with some out-of-town friends - we got a table in a prime spot on the balcony overlooking the park, the service was friendly and attentive (but not intrusive) and our food and wine were delivered promptly and of good quality. Can't say fairer than that really!

Last Holiday a hedonistic week in Andalucia
Best thing about where I live easy to get around by public transport; all the houses have gardens; small local delis; it's quiet
Worst thing about where I live lack of parks, shops and cashpoints; the walk home from the tube station; traffic
