The Cherry Tree, North Finchley

Previous comment here pretty unhelpful really as it's now a totally different place. As per previous postings it's called Purple Rain and has joined the ranks of the numerous Indian Bar Restaurants in North Finchley.

It's got a pleasant atmosphere and serves a reasonable variety of beers. Personally I didn't fancy eating there as I felt it had more of a bar feel than restaurant, however subsequently I noticed that there's a quiet lower area that looked fine to eat in.

The Torrington, North Finchley

Yup as per earlier anonymous comment, recently opened up as 3 Oceans - yet another bar restaurant for North Finchley. Pretty quiet at the moment but hopefully business will pick up in time. They run 2 menus, one serving continental cuisine morning and afternood, the other Indian which runs into the evening as well.

At least you can get a pint there, but don't make the mistake that we did and drink large rum with blue WKD in - great hangover but cost a fortune!

The Puzzle, North Finchley

It reopened a while back as GKII - an Indian Restaurant Bar. I did eat there a while back - it was fairly upmarket and very pleasant. Food was good too.
