The Builders Arms, New Barnet

Now with free Wi-Fi as well as an excellent range of often changing ales - always something new to try! Friendly atmosphere, but unfortunately live music seems to have become something of a rarity this year.... The front bar is small and intimate - a very nice place for a quiet drink with friends.

The Warrant Officer, Walthamstow

I visited this pub for the first time yesterday as I was in the area for a festival in the nearby park. I was pleased to discover there was a beer festival taking place in the pub and particularly enjoyed the Oatmeal Porter! I found it a pleasant and comfortable pub with a nice atmosphere, decent ale, and live music in the form of an 'Open mic' evening. It is now run by the Wild Card Brewery who seem determined to make something of the place - I enjoyed my visit and would certainly go back again.

The Old Bell, Enfield

2 real ale pumps - neither of them in use. This seems the normal state of affairs here. They didn't even have any Newcastle Brown or similar. They seem to have some decent bands and a bit of a music theme going on, but as far as the bar is concerned there is absolutely nothing to make me want to set foot in the place.
