The Islington Town House in Islington

Great pub great food nearly didn’t go in as it looked a bit tired don’t judge a book by its cover it was lovely, perfect lunch and cocktails, only one member of staff doing an amazing job thanks

Definitely a 10/10 experience! Every time I go to this place there is no disappointment - great staff , great food and drinks - lovely atmosphere and accessible toilets for prams - baby friendly pub ! Even in busy times staff are smiley, friendly and helpful! Definitely recommend it, one of the best in Angel!

vibes are amazing melissa is so helpful luv ya

Second visit to this great pub. All tables/seats were taken downstairs but we were lucky to get one right by the door as someone else left. Reasonably priced drinks for a London pub and a lovely mix of people of all ages. Lovely atmosphere with the buzz of conversation all around. I look forward to returning for food next time.

Such a great pub! We love coming here. Drinks food and vibe all great. Thanks to Melissa as well for always being so nice!! She’s the best!

Such lovely staff!!! Millisa and Nathan were great!

Nathan and Chanel are great conversation and banter and make this one of the coolest pubs in London to spend a weekday evening in!

What a surprise after I mentioned it's my birthday! 🎂 Thank you Piotr!

visited London and had a fantastic time with friends here. Drinks, karaoke, very friendly staff and the perfect end to an evening. Great stuff.

Great pub and very welcoming staff.

Chill place with friendly staff. Had a great time before our gig.

This is a great pub . The staff are super friendly and knowledgeable. Back ground music is excellent a mix of 70s , 80s and 90s . Wide range of good food .

Food was great. I was served by Chantel who I assumed was the manager based on her service and care for everyone and the business, I was completely impressed by her professionalism and customer service. Overall had a great night and will definitley be coming back!

The most wonderful exceptional place. Mikkala looked after me with the best ever coffee first visit when I wasn't well and he was so kind helping me with bags and water. Then went back and met Chantel who is just mega. She cares so much for her customers and gives you royal treatment. She is platinum. She looks after you and gives you a perfect time. Better than Nessa. Better than Sussex. Both of which are fantastic but she is next level for fabulous hospitality. Great food, happy happy days. Please put Chardonnay on the wine list though! Xxx

Great Sunday roast in a characteristic London place . Nice place and people

Beautiful Sunday roast with gluten free options. Great service from Mikkel and Chantelle

Not a bad place. Steeper prices but friendly people and good music. Good for having a post work drink but too pricey and not many deals or discounts for regulars etc

This pub is amazing with great entertainment and amazing staff. Went here for a Sunday roast today and it was delicious could not reccomened this pub enough. Portion size is very good and price is very reasonable.

Great service, tasty food and very friendly staff. Would definitely recommend, right in the heart of Islington and now under new management

A lovely experience at the Islington town house. Chantelle invited me and my dog in and really looked after us! Phoenix got a bowl of dog food, water and a treat so she was very happy! And I had the best aperol spritz and an incredible steak and ale pie! The mash was also to die for! Thanks guys xx

Chantelle was a brilliant server

First time here, the burger was amazing and the chips were perfect and the staff were out of this world. I will definitely come back here again. Service is to notch and with a smile. Always there to help.

We are a family on vacation, and stumbled upon this place while out. The food is absolutely delicious and everything is priced extremely reasonably. The atmosphere and ambiance is beautiful, and the service was great. Chantelle assisted us and she was absolutely lovely- so thoughtful and attentive. I highly recommend this for travelers and locals alike!

Lovely spot for chilling and people watching. Had the most amazing lamb Sunday lunch which is the best I've had when eating out. And I love my Sunday dinners! There was an abundance of thickly cut delicious lamb and the plate was brimming with veggies and potatoes and a Yorkshire pudding. When I asked fir extra gravy they bought me some straight away. My friend had a green salad with haloumi which she said again was a very generous portion a d delicious. The cocktails and drinks were superb. Service was excellent.

Really nice place for a Sunday roast, plenty of options and veggie options too, didn’t like the salad (and maybe I’m not a true vegetarian than the meat stuff looked good) but really loved the Yorkshire puddings and the other veggie stuff and I was just happy to be their with friends and the atomsphere was great! It’s what you make it!

Service from bartender was excellent. Not only did she notice that my food was delayed without me even asking, but she then got it sorted with the kitchen and offered me a top-up as compensation. Whatever you're paying her, it's not enough because she's doing a stellar job (girl with glasses, lash extensions and red lipstick - didn't get her name, sorry).

Fabulous place,staff are great and the food is very tasty, with generous portions, especially the Sunday roast. It is also the type of place if your female and flying solo, you would be comfortable on your own.

Spent my Saturday evening here. Was spectacular with such hard working bar staff, someone who really stood out to me was a lady named Chloe. She was extremely attentive to us and extremely pleasant. What a lovely addition to have to your team! The food was spectacular, I honestly can’t rate this pub enough. I will be back every weekend thanks to this great customer service which you tend to get anymore. Go the Islington Townhouse Pub!!!

The cleanest pub toilet I've ever been in and Melissa's customer service was exceptional. Perfect for a pint on the go!

Kitchen was closed on a Sunday afternoon even though it says on here that it's open until 9pm

nice friendly place to watch the world go by

Friendly staff and the food was lovely

Chloe was incredible. Nice quiz too!!!

Came here Sunday 21st July by chance from Essex as use to live in Islington many years ago it was lovely and the two girls working in the day were lovely would come back, lamb dinner was beautiful could not fault it Thank you ladies so much. Xx

Awful experience coming to watch the Euros. We had a reservation for table of 4 downstairs and when we arrived we were told a couple had just ordered food to our table. The staff said once they are done they will give us our seats (already frustrating) and then two more people joined their table and said it was for their booking. It turns out the staff gave our table to them since they were friends! Really upsetting as no staff member helped and the customers at that table were extremely rude. We managed to find some standing room but those customers kept pushing their chairs into our area. Overall just an unfortunate experience and wouldn’t come back here again - sad, because we had gone for a previous game and had a blast!

Very cute spot with plenty of seating. The fish and chips was delicious, and the service was friendly and fast. Highly recommend!

Great atmosphere but £9 for a glass of wine! As for the food, £15 for an individual shop bought pie, a scoop of mash and a few vegetables. My guest didn’t fare any better with the smallest chicken burger and a tiny basket of chips. £13 .

Lovely place. Good selection of beers. Beaverton on tap. Very friendly staff. Large downstairs bar and cosy upstairs area. Like coming here when I'm in the area

Food was delicious and Scott was brilliant made us feel so welcome! Recommend.

Poor. Rude barman, tiny chicken burger (was it a chick-burger?) adequate mayo on the plus side. No other positives. Weird couch.

We had a Friends and Family Meal here on the way to 02. Great Atmosphere, Great Staff and Great Food and Drink too!

Looking for a Sunday roast? We had the lamb. Not cheap at £20, but worth every penny. I wish this was my local boozer.

Good evening, my name is Suzanne. I have been working in the service industry for 18 years. But I have not seen such service anywhere in the world for all these 18 years. I went up to the bar counter and asked to charge my phone so I could pay for a drink. The guy who worked at the bar tried to help me, at the same moment a guy with glasses came up to me - he didn’t introduce himself, he acted like the owner of the establishment, and he started pushing me and kicking me out of the bar. I will not come to you again and will not recommend your pub to anyone with such an attitude. If you have questions for me, send me a message to my email suzanna25@ukr net

After a long days work I thought I’d give Islington town house a try. Watching a good football game, and enjoy a meal. The Islington Burger on the menu is absolutely delicious any time when there a game going on I’m going there. Melissa who I met is very nice great service all around.

Roast for 2. Large portion. Lamb was undercooked. Friendly staff. Lovely atmosphere..

We moved to this bar because the previous one was awful. The vibe here was much better with a broader range of characters within. Colourful decor and an upstairs area. The layout of the tables makes it awkward for TV watchers as well found we were surrounded by football fans looking up above us for a bit, but aside from that it seems like a nice chilled place. Music was ok. Nowhere is reasonably priced in London anymore but it was cool for pre-gig drinks

The whole atmosphere was very good I enjoyed myself.

A verly lively, friendly joint with great service to eat at and have a drink. Service with a great smile from the staff. I loved it!

Such a great Peruvian night the food was amazing and tasty. The chef was knowledgeable and informed us what we were eating The live band was great downstairs a great sing along and atmosphere.

Food was terrible, I had the burger, very rubbery and was microwaved. Overpriced, would never go again. Unfortunate as it a nice pub.

Nice pub with good ambience & food

Expensive as London is, but liked it and not as expensive as closer to the centre. Charming helpful landlord and DECENT house wine! Recommend!

These guys are an absolute dream, especially Melinda! I had an issue leaving my phone in a taxi, they were very helpful and caring, I had a wonderful chat while i waited, ate a great meal, enjoyed myself so much I came back the next day for lunch. Could not recommend more.

Wow what a gem of a place the food is absolutely spectacular portion sizes are amazing quality of food phenomenal and their chimmi churri sause is TO DIE FOR .. we came one night and spent the next 3 here. The atmosphere was immaculate they have very cool jazz vibes on a Sunday and the SundayRoasts !!! Top Notch! You will not find a nicer pub for food drinks and entertainment in all of London let alone Islington! Management and staff cant do enough for you - do NOT miss out and pop in you will not be disappointed 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟

It was BAD! The food was disgusting and other random people were walking into our private reservation and started eating our food. The bar was supposed to be ours only but everyone just came walking in. The DJ cancelled on us and didn’t even turn up when we payed 250 pound for a private one and while everyone else got beautiful music we got the baddest music EVER! And we were told to get here for 5 pm to set up and we couldn’t get ready until 6;30 because people where still sitting in the seats we were meant to have it’s a disgrace, I will never come here again in my life, even if my life depended on it! There was only one toilet in this whole pub which was terrible! It ruined my aunties 50th birthday completely! Well done for ruining her night! Thanks a lot.

I wanted to write a review after the amazing service my friends and I received from Brendan on Saturday. We didn't have a booking and the pub was busy but he found a space for us in the Snug and offered us table service. He was so welcoming and friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we had a lovely afternoon. We ended up staying all day and all night as a result. Brendan is an absolute asset to you and I will be back and recommending this place to others

The best landlady ever served us and made us feel welcome

Brilliant service , and very tasty cocktail service from bar maid Melissa , good atmosphere, will visit again…I didn’t eat as service for food was already closed .

The quiz host is a 10/10, very handsome

So didn't expect a quick visit to be a longer visit because the pub is great, great location, food, beer & service.

Wonderful. Had a private room for friends birthday. Food looked good but didn't eat.

Nice pub close to Angel Station.

Beautiful pub a stone's throw from Angel Tube. I held my birthday party here on a Sunday afternoon. I booked the 1st floor bar for drinks and food. The staff could not have been more accommodating. Excellent time had by all. Would highly recommend as a party venue.

Great local in the heart of Angel. Lovely stuff xx

Held a party in the upstairs rooms and bar. We had a fantastic time. The food was very good, drinks great and Patrick and his team were really wonderful, nothing was a problem. Great value for money as well

Great evening! Hosted a leaving do for us, amazing service, great food, good atmosphere. Lisa, brendon and Patrick especially good! Thanks guys

Came to the new pub quiz run by Alex on a Wednesday night quite tricky quiz 🤪🤪🤪 Didn’t gave food but friendly staff

A lovely bar. Quirky and inviting. It was a Monday lunchtime, so not so busy - just what we needed. We could certainly see the potential for an evening there. Staff were welcoming, and they had a good selection of ales. We didn't eat, but we're pleased with the selection on offer.

My family and I came here for Christmas celebration. We had a beautiful 3 course meal, the food was delicious and perfectly presented. We absolutely loved the atmosphere this pub brings and how accommodating the staff were to every need. Plus to top it all of the pub is so creative with its cocktails inventing Christmas themed cocktails perfect for a festive celebration. The team even recognised we were there for a festive celebration and bought us some games we can play to extend the celebration. I cannot fault the team at The Islington Townhouse, they made our celebration, very special and one to remember 😁

The music is too bad to be playing this loudly. Plus the speakers can't handle the volume. Shame because the atmosphere would be nice otherwise

Excellent food, and can't say enough about the super-friendly service! Absolutely no negatives to report. 10 out of 10!

Perfect place to be !!! 😁 Great service and lovely staff we loved it ! 😍😍😍

Bellissimo pub londinese, birra top, barista gentilissima, purtroppo non ho provato il food perché il giorni di Natale la cucina era chiusa.

I’ve had an amazing couple of nights here with friends and most recently for a Christmas party. The atmosphere was so fun and the cocktails were spot on!

Sunday roast was super tasty and the service was great, especially from Scott who took care of us

Enjoyed a wonderful set menu meal here for our work Christmas party. We were in a cosy private dining area which was perfect for us. Brendan looked after us so well all evening. The food was really tasty. Delicious Prosecco and overall really good value for money.

We have the best customer service in London!!! The staff happy to help you ,amazing waiters, amazing venue ,and nice food !! Thank you sou much Islington Town House, you service is amaizing !!!

My dance group had our 5 year anniversary party here and the team were awesome, so welcoming, accommodating and friendly. The cocktails were excellent and the ambience is really friendly and warm. I’d fully recommend it!

Brilliant night with friends. The food was delicious, the staff was friendly and professional. We hired a room and we had a great dinner and a fantastic karaoke night. I highly recommend this place.

Very cute pub with the most amazing Sunday roast. The food was delicious and the staff were very welcoming and friendly. We will definitely be visiting again!!

Came here for my Sunday roast and was very disappointed by my experience. Food took half an hour to come. Other customers complained and only then did food orders come. When mine did, the food portion was so small it looked like a starter. No gravy was provided, we told the server and she had to give the bar staff instructions to serve us gravy confused like he was brand new. Save your time, go somewhere else.

All around a really great dining experience. One of the best roast I’ve had to date in London. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful and the environment was perfect for a catch up with friends and family.

Lovely pub with a great atmosphere! Friendly staff with great service! The best Sunday roast in London!!

Very appalling service. We were a group of 10 right in front of the bar on a quiet Saturday afternoon and the barman didn’t even offer us tap water. I had to ask after 20 mins. And no one was even at the bar keeping him busy. When I said the mulled wine wasn’t warm enough, instead of apologising and asking if I want to replace my order, he poured himself some mulled wine and said it is warm enough to him and kept arguing and contradicting. I said if you can’t to anything to improve it I’m fine just taking it. It took him 10 minutes later to finally realise and offered to add boiling water. It took us ages to order and the barman kept answering phone calls. Fries was abysmal and cold.

Scott, Melissa, and Bala made my evening! Amazing service and lots of good vibes! Thank you so much!

My niece and I stumbled on this pub by pure accident after the previous pub we' had reserved Sunday lunch let us down. What a warm welcome by the staff. Ordered the Sunday lunch shared meat platter. It was a great portion and delicious. We were even brought extra gravy! Staff came to our table to take drink orders too. Give it a go, you won't be disappointed.

Fairly expensive drinks and food menu so didn't eat but enjoyed the vibes of the place, my partner got a double vodka lime soda and the limes could've been taken better care of, dry and flavourless fruit doesn't belong in a £12 drink, quite amusing though the actual layout of the building is almost like a maze but plenty of trip hazards so tread lightly 👍

If I could leave zero stars, I would… worst pub I’ve ever been to. Booked for a group of 18 people, paid a deposit only to get there and they “didn’t have any alcohol left”!!!! Not sure how that’s possible for a pub, but the refused to refund the deposit regardless. We stayed for 20 mins then got the hell out of there. So bizzare, as they weren’t serving alcohol the pub was dead. Avoid at all costs!

Great atmosphere and hospitality

Decent pub just off Upper Street. Shows the Rugby with sound!

A lovely pub hugely let down by an incredibly rude American bar tender - was stressed and angry at customers the whole time even when the bar was empty.

A pleasant friendly pub with a cheerful atmosphere. A good spot to go near The Angel for a couple of drinks. A couple of cold lagers were what we boys had and for our female companions the house Pinot Grigio was just fine.

Food was nice, really nice upstairs for a party that we were attending and pints are cheap for the area

What's with enforced table service (and 12.5% charge) in an empty pub? Seems to me like profiteering from Covid. Edit - Now under new management. Much better!

Thanks to the staff who were so keen to ensure my small group had a good experience of the women's world cup. The result wasn't what we wanted, but the venue was very considerate. Thanks 😊

Nice venue for daytime drinks, the food was OK, but options were limited.

Lovely little place for a drink. Staff were very professional and welcoming. Would recommend!

Amazing querky pub over 3 floors. Great cocktails and craft beer served by an amazingly welcoming team. GM has done a great job on the place.

Extremely pleasant pub, friendly staff and correct price. I'm just missing the tables that used to be outside, but I guess as soon as the work is finished on top of the pub, they'll be back.
