Spritz Season

Sun shining in Islington? Grab a seat outside and make the most of our street-side sun trap.

Think long, refreshing spritzes, plenty of ice, and lazy afternoons watching the world go by with a drink in hand. Whether you’re meeting mates or stopping in for a quick one that turns into a few, it’s the perfect spot to soak up the sunshine

Christmas in Islington

Christmas has a way of filling up the diary. The work drinks. The family lunch. The “quick one” with your mates that definitely isn’t. We’re here for all of it with festive food, cold drinks and plenty of room to settle in and stay a while.

Christmas Day? We’ll take care of the food. And if you’re still standing by NYE, come and see us in Islington.
