The Faltering Fullback, Finsbury Park

I live opposite the pub so go their a lot. Its a lively place, especially at the weekend or when London premiership clubs are playing, but the back area is usually big enough to accommodate people (gets a bit crammed when arsenal are playing).

Lots of seating in the 'sin bin' (back room).

Friendly crowd and bar staff. There isn't a duke box in the back room and its generally not that loud (except weekend nights when it can be a bit loud). If its not the weekend I'm sure they'd turn it down if you ask at the bar.

Its got a good reputation and people travel to get here, I've been asked a couple of times for directions to it.

Decent outdoor area.

Nice Thai food thats cheap.
