The Swan, Stockwell

It's like Smithfields market, but with less blood. All good fun, just be aware of what you are letting yourself in for!

The White Hart, Stoke Newington

Very good for football, especially the Arsenal games. The DJ can be a bit random - once they were playing loud techno at 4pm on a Sunday afternoon as people were eating their lunch. Interesting choice.
The garden is good though, as the only place round here with one this good is over at the Londesbrough. It's very dark, so cosy for winter, but remains dark in summer, so head out the back to the garden.

The Village, Muswell Hill

It's now a BRB, with all the same things as the others - pizzas, happy hour, cocktail specials. The bar is just huge though, possibly too big to have a good atmosphere unless it gets very busy. This definitely feels more of a bar than pub, unlike some of their other places. It has a big pool table section out the back but take on the regulars at your peril.
