The Star, Highgate

Excellent pub for a good argument
I was about to give up on the highgate area in general until I stumbled upon this little gem. I've moved here recently and found the locals beyond compare in the good samariton stakes you see. Within 30 seconds of stepping through the ample entrance of this establishment I found myself disagreeing with an old couple over the ownership rights of a sumptuous chesterfield. After relieving myself in the gents I entered into a fanasticly pedantic spat with the barchap over the correct serving temperature for deutchers IPA. I then spent the evening in the rather enjoyable fashion of being regailed by my, now, former girlfriend on my many failings, including but not limited to my inept choice of footwear.
All in all a memorable evening, my thanks to the public house management and locals for their part in it.
