Brewhouse and Kitchen, Islington
Had an excellent lunch here before an Arsenal game...bit further to walk to the Emirates but unlike the Brewhouse at Highbury much easier to get served on match day and you get to drink out of real glasses..not the polycarb things that don't do the beer justice

great pub to meet friends before an Arsenal match....Platters good for sharing...fantastic range of ales and craft beers...does get a bit busy,so bar staff PLEASE do a visual and try to serve the punters in order...Nothing worse than waiting and waiting while the next bloke in their eye line gets served first

called in on our way to the rugby at the Olympic Park yesterday...greeted by Sandra who was very pleasant...Had a pint of Youngs and my mate had a Coke...no mention of get a "proper drink" to him...so all in all ,a nice pub which I will revisit when down that way....Reading all the previous postings it appears there may be a hidden agenda toward this pub and landlady..most of the posts are by people who have only left one comment on this website leading me to assume they are all the same person...so no way does this pub warrant a 3 out of 10...so pay a visit and decide for yourself !

now completely demolished...probably flats will be built on the site...I remember the Shelley back in the sixties..aunt sally team,darts team ,bar billiards...place was full every Friday & Saturday night...Like so many pubs,it went down the pan when trends changed...will be missed by a few old romantics..

Visited yesterday for the first time...Well impressed with the selection of ales...3 Brodies were on..also half a dozen other local cask ales...excellent massive pub mirrors around the bars....interior a bit run down but the Brodies make the visit worthwhile..especially at £2.50 a pint..A few regulars were drinking Fosters and Stella...hmmmm !

Had an excellent lunch here last Wednesday...pub is now more resturanty than pub ..but saying that the four Wadworths real ales were in fine form....will return as the missus loved the lunch

Visited this fine London boozer again last evening...excellent array of real ales..had a couple of then..forget the names but no matter...all the ales are very well kept...Whole area around the pub is being redeveloped..I fear the worst for this veritable oasis....

called in yesterday lunchtime for an excellent pint of Brodies Kiwi and the chicken & mushroom pie with chips...great value at £5.70 in London..also had a pint of Redemption which always goes down well...this is probably the best pub in Covent Garden in my opinion..
