Popped in with friends for a Sunday roast, it was lovely and satisfying. The pub's clean and a great place to chat and catch up. The staff are so friendly and accommodating! If the proprietors are paying attention, the only note I'd make is that the beer prices are starting to get pretty steep. I'm sure if the proprietors consider returning prices to more reasonable and competitive levels, given the local competition in Islington, The Bull will see an increase in loyal customers.

Celebrated my birthday here today. The food was good, not exceptional, but I’ll give it 5/5 because it was served by the most angelic waitress (i’m not exaggerating, I truly believe she is heaven sent) I have ever had the pleasure to meet. She was not only drop-dead gorgeous and incredibly kind, but also an obvious professional. One of those who knows exactly what you want and need before you even know so yourself. She prevented my 99-year-old grandfather from tripping and most probably saved his life in the process. When we left I asked her to bless the lottery ticket I got as a present. Just found out I won thousands (I won’t tell you all exactly how much because this is the internet, but you people wouldn’t know where to find me anyways because I’m moving to a much bigger house soon). Leah, thank you for making this my most amazing birthday yet. If you’re reading this, I wrote my number on the bill. I really hope you call because I would love to take you out to dinner. This money is yours too now.

Great pub on Upper St - we've been in the evening when it's busy - this time we went for Sunday Roast. Pub much quieter, atmosphere lacking a bit. Food was very good. Full half chicken, plenty of veg which was well prepared (ie not soggy or gray) and an amazing Yorkshire. Service ok but could have been better especially given how quiet the pub was Sunday lunchtime. Will still go back.

Nearly fainted when charged £17 for a glass of white wine and a small bottle of sparkling water during a lunchtime visit in September. Yes, £17. I should have queried it but was in a state of shock. I notice the booze prices don’t appear on their website. Nice enough pub. Ridiculous prices.

Quite honestly the worse roast dinner I have ever encountered, everything burnt and dried out, chicken was so overcooked it literally broke into pieces , the pig in blanket ( yes there was only one ) looked like a piece of leather, the roast potatoes were the size of dice and four in total !!,very poor guys you seriously need to up your game, fortunately we got one of the roasts refunded !! ( Don't take the pics of the roasts on the website as what you will get ).

I popped here on a whim as part of my quest for the best value Sunday roast on Upper Street. The beef and Yorkshire pud were very good. The veg - not so much. The roast potatoes were like concrete - and I ate early - so don’t fancy chances of later diners. Overall, it was just ok and not worth £19.

We went in and took advantage of the 2 for 1 cocktails, they give you 2 of the same cocktail though, which is pretty standard in most places. Plenty of seating, the place wasn't as welcoming as other places we found in Islington, maybe because they was busy, it was a convenient place to have a drink, I wouldn't have a problem returning here. The drinks were nice and although we didn't have any food here it did look good looking at other people eating here.

The Bull Islington, what can I say about this iconic blue pub on the heart of Upper Street? Other than the obvious that its a brilliant pub. I like to go to a pub a few times before writing a review. First, The guys behind the bar know what they are doing. They strive to give you a great service, you can see that in the attitude they show. They know what they are doing, and they are bloody great at it. I tried their Pineapple Spritz which I was recommended by the person with the pink hair, I asked what their favourite cocktail was and they said "From the day we had our drinks training I fell in love with the Pineapple Spritz". So of course I had to try it, and I am glad I did. It was the best Spritz I have had for awhile, even better than an Aperol. I also tried some of their IPA's too. Although a little pricey, due to the area, sadly we have come to the point were we no longer see £5 pints. I still enjoyed a lovely pint of Camden Pale, £7.25, they glass was clean and the taste was incredible. Second, the food. I have had a few different meals during my visits. Their 3 for £17 snack deal is a great choice if you are looking for something to nibble on but not too sure what you want. You can mix and match from a selection of 9 different dishes. I loved the Calamari, Fried Chicken and Halloumi Fries. On a second visit I had the 8oz Sirloin Steak, which came with chips. I asked for it to be cooked Medium rare and that's exactly what I got. I was juicy and I got it with the Beef dripping and Thyme sauce. I then visited for a Sunday roast. I got the Roast beef and my partner got the Chicken, It comes with peas, leeks, cabbage, carrots, potato's and the biggest yorkie I have ever seen (Luckily my partner doesn't like Yorkies so I got two). We also got a portion of cauliflower cheese, which was just delightful. The portions are little smaller than I expected for 2 people, so next time i will order two portions of Cauliflower cheese. I love that they put your gravy in a pot for you to pour yourself, however the portion is very small and had to ask my server for some more (which is free). Third, the Atmosphere. I have been here at different times on different days to try and get a feel for what this place is really like. During the day on a weekday, it is very quiet and they play easy going music. This is the best time to go if you want to fall sit down meal, if you are on your lunch break or if you are meeting with a friend. This is the place for you, they also do sandwiches. On Friday nights they have door staff on however, the pub still has that pub feel. They don't push the tables out of the way to create a "dance floor". They do raise the volume of the music up. The only down side is that at busier times, service can be a little slow. However, that doesn't stop them from giving you the best service ever. I would love to have this as my local, however I live too far. If you are Luckily enough to live near this gem of a pub, check it out, you will not regret it! I hope I am able to come back to Islington at some point to pop in again soon.

Beyond mediocre, ridiculously overpriced. £7.40 for a pint of Peroni! And IPAs over £8 a pint. Roasts tasted like school dinners, and they use stock photography on their website to make the food look good when it isn't – seen the exact same photos on other pub's websites. Also a terrible place to watch the football, despite trying to advertise as a Euros pub on social media. Overall, bad atmosphere, criminal pricing, a must-avoid for anyone with self respect.

Nice venue but the food was disappointing worst burger I've had in a long time, a thin burnt burger with a slice of cheese and little else. If you try order through the app you get charged 10% more, in my opinion a pretty sleasy way of getting people to pay more. Understandable to add service charge for a sit down meal but means you're paying £7.50 a pint and paying just to have a beer brought over.

We paid for a corner in the pub and it was a terrible experience just because of the BOUNCER. Now, I’ve worked in hospitality for years and I’ve never had an experience like this. He was not stable and was licking his lips and clenching his jaw when I asked him what was wrong, and when I tried to understand what the situation was he ignored me and refused members of our party entry into the pub by locking the door (ask your staff it you don’t believe me - 3 members of our party). Irregardless of what the situation was, the fact that he locked the doors made many people feel uneasy! When he got fed up with me asking as to why he wouldn’t allow people to enter the pub again (even though he we had a hired section) we all started to become uneasy as this isn’t regular behaviour, especially of someone in this profession. I must say, the staff were lovely and were so helpful during this and also expressed their discontent towards this particular bouncer. I would like to feel looked after when visiting a pub but I genuinely don’t feel that here. Not a safe environment as a customer! This intimidation mechanism taken upon by this bouncer was not acceptable. I do hope action is taken, this is not okay.

Inefficient arrogant and rude bartenders. I was trying to make sure a customer at the bar finally got served rather than being ignored. Then the other bartender says to me, "You OK man, you look impatient." I should have walked out but decided to have a pint of Peroni and forget about it. Wish I had left because my pint was disgusting. It had that sweet sickly caramel taste that can only come from the bacteria in dirty pipes, £7.25 wasted. Not surprised really as the pub stank of stale beer which confirmed the lack of cleaning. So to recap, rude Inefficient staff, a poorly run cellar and dirty pub. The next time I go to the area, I'll make sure to avoid The Bull. Update: I had a response from the owner who asked me to call and discuss. I don't know who I spoke to but was told "there is no owner to speak to, it's a Mitchell and Butler pub". Then I find out that the General Manager is on holiday till middle of the month and yes, I don't care enough to follow up. What could i say anyway? Bad beer and a smelly pub is culture, poor cleaning standards and bad cellar management. Not an off night. So there you go, no need for a phone call. Cheers !!

We booked here for our annual Christmas lunch. We'd pre-ordered our three courses, plus drinks on arrival. When we arrived, our table was ready, the food came quickly and Jose & Kieran took good care of us. The food was tasty - the pate was really nice. The pork belly was good too and the profiteroles were great with the salted caramel inside. The place was very busy with other Christmas parties, plus those just in a for a drink but everything went well. The only thing was that we were right by the door, so it was a little cold at times, but nothing major. We'd definitely consider coming back.

They forgot our booking, after we showed them the confirmation email the man decided to blame us for not emailing him back despite the confirmation email not asking for any other correspondence. Instead of a planned large, festive table for 12 people we were crammed onto a table for 2 hours for a quick bite to eat next to the kitchen and were then told the only food we could order was burgers. The staff behind the bar were lovely and I felt bad for them as they were clearly understaffed. They really ment well. However, the manager had a negative attitude and his response of "we expect more communication from our customers after the confirmation has been sent" and then proceeding to justify his arguing with telling us he gets 3000 emails a day was unacceptable. All he had to do was apologies for forgetting us, not argue and raise his voice. Food was average, small portions for the price. Would not trust this establishment with a large booking or a special occasion. Its likely fine for popping in for pub grub. Wouldn't go again based on how we were treated. We were made to feel awful out of no fault of our own.

Let me tell you something right now… The Bull in Angel is the most hospitable establishment in a 50mile square radius. We first turned up before they opened, but they were the only gaff in the area that had the decency to open their door and speak to us. We then went to flight club up the road and then straight back. The lads in there Ciaran and Hakeem welcomed us with open arms and grinning smiles. Furthermore the chaps were setting up for a Christmas party with some crackers, we asked could our party pull one and they gave us one each. Best pub ever!

I booked a table at The Bull for their quiz night. Booking was no issue. A few days later I recieved an email confirming the booking and stating the quiz starting at 7pm. On the evening of the quiz, I came to the pub a little early at around 6.10 as the booking started at 6.30pm, was told my table was busy with two other people eating, I could not order food for another 40 min or so as the kitchen was closed due to a large party having food. Fine, then at 6.30 when my booking started the two people at the table refused du leave our table but staff eventually managed to move them. Asked again after about 40 min if we could order food, now we had to wait until 7pm and at 7pm we were told we could order food now but it would not be served for another hour, so 8pm. We ordered some drinks and waited for the quiz to start at 7 but nothing happened, then my friend asked the bar staff when the quiz was starting and was told the quiz starts at 8. Why the email confirmation states it starts at 7pm she could not say and was quite rude to my friend not offering her an explanation. Also the pub was freezing as the doors kept being opened and closed itself very slowly, there was also a draft from the windows. Would not recommend.

Very nice pub with a pleasant atmosphere and friendly staff. I had some of the food here in a buffet style at a party, and all the standard pub foods (burgers, chicken, fries, nachos, etc) were of excellent quality.

We stopped by for an evening snack and had fantastic food and service in a lovely atmosphere. We expect the rest of the menu would be as fantastic as the soup and dessert we had. Would def go again and recommend.

Beautiful old pub with wonderful original features. A warm welcome was offered as was a really good selection of wines, beers etc. We really enjoyed our meal, I had the pork belly, which was delicious. We look forward to our next visit.
