Review of St. Johns Tavern

Gastropub in Archway 
St. Johns gets some good press especially in Time Out for being one of the best Gastropubs in North London. I haven't been there to eat but its quite expensive. I heard on the grapevine that Suggs from Madness eats there, If he does he will find that it has a good atmosphere with good bar service with plenty of seating to dine available. They even have a few chessboards knocking about. Definitely worth a try

Review of The Mother Redcap

Its a dive 
I got recommended the pub by a friend of a friend. As soon as I walked in, I wanted to walk out. It's a dive, with shabby interior, a shabby pool table and a lot of old men escaping from their wifes. The drinks are quite cheap and if you like you greyhound and horse racing you will have a great time otherwise don't venture near it. If you like Irish pubs go to the Fullback in Finsbury Park or the Boston Arms in Tufnell Park.

Review of Angies

No Frills Pub
There is nothing I like about this pub. It clearly caters for the lower end of the market. The pub looks like it hasn't changed since the 1940's and most of the regulars are in their 40's and 50's. However some people like this which is fine but it offers no value to me. They have the usual circuit singers here on a Saturday night if you like that kind of thing and the bar prices are average for London.

Review of Archway Underground Station

AH! The Northern Line 
There are two problems with Archway tube. Firstly its in Archway. The second its on the Northern Line. I used the tube everyday to get to work and on 3 out of 5 times the tube was delayed. What was worst is that sometimes even at 9.30 in the morning I couldn't get on tube due to overcrowding. If you take the northern line out of the equation, then the station is fine, there maybe a beggar outside some nights but Ive never heard or seen any trouble in or around the station.
