The Bald Faced Stag, East Finchley

Makeover has done wonders for the place, as long as you are a yuppie with deep pockets. Prices are a joke now. How expensively exactly was that brown paint you put on the walls. Surely the 38 eight plasmas you got rid of must have fetched a few bob.
But on the good side perhaps East Finchley is finally fully gentrifying.

Cheapish. Irish. Friendly enough bar staff. Although some of punters you wouldn't exactly take home to mum.

The Old White Lion, East Finchley

Nice makeover - someone told me it cost 1/4 million quid.
But the prices are sky high and the bar staff don't give a damn. Still probably the best pub in the area - so much so that the Bald Faced Stag has copied the idea. (Take out the TV's, paint the walls brown and add a quid to the price of every pint.)
