La antigua lechería es un pub moderno con un buen menú de bebidas y un menú de comida ????????? para todas las edades. El personal es muy agradable y todos trabajan muy duro con una sonrisa. Tienen un menú para la cena de Navidad, pero debes reservar con anticipación ya que es un pub muy concurrido en esa época del año.

We hosted an engagement party at the Old Dairy at the end of February for about 50 people. From the day we booked to the last people standing, everyone at the Old Dairy was so accommodating and friendly. We got lots of sharing platters which were delish. Particular thanks goes to Nick for expertly manning the bar on what turned out to be a really busy day. at the pub. He really went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed.

Went with my other half for a Sunday roast, it was pretty full and even though the staff were really busy they were so lovely, and took their time talking us through the menu and taking our order. Really friendly service and the roast pork recommendation was spot on.The food was so delicious and my roast was massive, but even though I was full I had the sticky toffee pudding I had for dessert and it was amazing.It was my first visit to the pub as I’m quite new to the area but I will be back for sure.Thank you for such a nice lunch.

It didn't smell very good when it arrived, so it's already a defeat straight from the smell. The vegetables were bland and so was so meat, which had as many nerves in it as actual meet. My partner's vegan burger looked like it was from Wetherspoons. The "tostadas" were three boring looking little toasts, with cheap produce on top of them, for the absurd price of £7.50. The beers were bland too. Very good red wine though. I'll never eat there again. Too bad, it's a beautiful place that deserves far better food.

Visitei esse pub em um sábado, estava lotado pois estava passando Six Nations na tv. A sensação que tive era de ser a única estrangeira no pub. Na hora der ser atendida no bar, a garçonete foi extremamente mal educada. Apensar de eu ser a próxima da vez e de ter deixado claro isso pra ela, ela fez questão de atender um rapaz antes de mim. Senti que foi de propósito. Muito chateada eu fui sentar na minha mesa pra esperar o almoço, que por sinal estava delicioso, apesar de eu ter achado o preço bem caro pra ser um pub de bairro.Na hora da sobremesa, devo ter esperado por mais de 40 minutos. Tive que ir no balcão reclamar, eles disseram que provavelmente a sobremesa foi entregue em uma mesa errada, pois o chefe garantiu que fez a sobremesa e que mandou.Ou seja, 2 problemas com atendimento em uma única visita??? Isso não é um bom sinal. Mas pretendo voltar e dar a eles uma segunda chance. Principalmente porque esse pub fica pertinho de casa e pq eu adoro o ambiente.

We haven’t been here for a while, we’ve always looked forward to lunch here, in fact we had our wedding reception there, but today was a very disappointing meal, the beef was very fatty, the roast potatoes were not fresh, and I can only presume the cauliflower cheese came from the microwave, we shall very sadly avoid in the future

Como local que ha apoyado a Old Dairy durante años, ¡la comida de hoy era lo peor! Traté de llamar con anticipación para reservar una mesa, igual que mi novio, pero el teléfono no fue levantado y seguía sonando. Esto ha sucedido en el pasado, es tan difícil reservar que tengo la impresión de que el teléfono se ha descolgado o algo así. Así que lo encontramos y entramos a buscar una mesa. Cuando llegamos, nos preguntaron si habíamos reservado, pero les explicamos que lo intentamos varias veces durante la última hora pero que nadie contestaba el teléfono. Ella no parecía tan molesta o sorprendida, pero dijo que intentará arreglar una mesa para nosotros, pero se hizo con un suspiro, ¡como qué molestos realmente tenemos clientes! Después de una corta espera, afortunadamente nos sentamos rápidamente y para nuestra sorpresa había varias mesas vacías en la parte de atrás. Finalmente llamamos la atención del personal y pedimos el almuerzo del domingo y estábamos ansiosos por hacerlo.

Ignored for our 3rd order as staff wanted to finish their conversation. Then, later, sound turned off on the TV immediately after final whistle of failed cup final and everyone except the two of us immediately left (22:48). I said ‘you may as well turn it back on’ to which I got the reply ‘we’re closing now’ and then the TVs were all turned off at 22:50 and we, the only people left, left. When trade is hard to come by to be served in such a diabolical unfriendly way was astonishing. And that’s even with my experience as an Area Manager of pubs. I don’t suppose anything will happen but you really don’t need a culture of such appalling customer service in 2019. Happy to speak to you about it if anyone wants to contact me.

We love the food at this place but every time we have terrible services. We think we might stop coming after today. Came for a Sunday Roast. The dish was missing items. We asked three staff members and watched all three of them just clearing down the restaurants (it was around half eight so I assumed they wanted to go home) and none of them got what we’d asked (and actually paid for) terrible. Terrible service. Try the Alexandra or the Stapleton opposite for much better service and food.

This is one of our local pubs and we visit regularly when we want a special meal and have never been disappointed. There is also a good and changing range of hand-pulled beers and varied wine list. The staff are friendly and accommodating. My partner has several food intolerances and the chef always finds a way to accommodate them. This Saturday Emma served us a delicious pea and mint soup with pulled pork tostados, and my partner really enjoyed the steak. Shankar was right to recommend the blood orange and coconut sorbet, Yum! The building has a great character, and even when the bar is busy and loud with sports on TV it is possible to find a quiet spot in the large restaurant. The Old Dairy is also child friendly - this Saturday there were six buggies. We are lucky to have it in our neighbourhood.

I live just down the road and this used to be my go to pub in the area, but not anymore. Every visit is now a disappointment. Today the staff were rude and the food cold.

We went for lunch at The Old Dairy on a very wet Wednesday with our family. The pub was virtually empty so lacked atmosphere, but I can imagine it would be great on a Friday or Saturday evening. The beer and food were good - tasty and imaginative. Our waiter Neale was a real star. He responded patiently to all our queries re nut allergies, and vegan requirements. Perhaps more dietary information on the menu would have made his job a little easier !

Absolutely amazing! We went there for dinner four nights in a row and thoroughly loved all our meals. The chef, Aldig worked miracles in tastes and varieties. Our recommendations? The Sunday night roasts, the oxtail pie, the prawn linguine and the flat iron chicken dish. All sides and accompaniments complimented the dinners. A very special mention to our outstanding wait people, Rose, Emma, Shankar and Neile for their knowledge and most importantly, their friendship. We highly recommend this pub for anyone who wants a friendly and comfortable dining experience.

I arranged for a group of work colleagues to have a meal prior to Christmas. The food was lovely and the atmosphere was nice, although we were cramped around a table with little elbow room. Unfortunately one of our group was unable to come due to illness, and we were charged the full amount for her meal!! We understood we'd lose the deposit but did not expect to still be charged in full. When challenged the manager said it was in the terms and conditions. I've never heard of this before and sadly, will not be visiting again.

The Christmas menu has a slightly bizarre booking policy where if a member of your group can’t make it (in our case due to illness) they insist on serving food that won’t be eaten and the rest of the group paying for it. This is justified on the basis that ‘the food has already been made’, which seems a little unlikely (it certainly didn’t arrive as if it were all ready), and is pretty wasteful as a policy. (Also weird because presumably if the whole table was a no show they wouldn’t/couldn’t charge anything more than the deposit). Would have obviously expected to lose the deposit but given we phoned up multiple times in advance to warn them that one person was ill and no-one picked up I was unimpressed with their stance.

I recently hired the front lounge for a 'mature' hen party for 16 guests. The room is lovely and spacious (and very reasonable to hire compared with some other venues). We had a buffet and I chose dishes from the wide variety on offer. Everyone said how much they enjoyed the food, especially the baked Camembert, pulled pork and arancini. The staff were very helpful and the service was good. We will definitely be back for Sunday lunch.

The worst service I have experienced for a long time. And when the food eventually arrived it was very average. We visited for Sunday lunch having booked in advance and arrived on time. We were taken to our table and then seemingly forgotten. We had to get up and find a waitress to take our drinks order which took 15 minutes to arrive. Then we had to chase her again to take the food and wine order. We had to chase again for the wine and again for the food. After two hours there we left and went elsewhere for pudding and coffee.If we had received an apology or an explanation for the delays then I would not be writing this, but service of this poor quality needs to be highlighted.

The first time I went here they'd lost my booking which I'd confirmed with them via email and were pretty rude about it (no apologies), but the food was delicious so it made up for it. Second time we came back was a good experience although again staff not particularly friendly. Yesterday I got a call ten minutes before our reservation saying they'd run out of roasts, did we want to come anyway (no apologies this time either), we said yes and arrived ten minutes later. We waited to be greeted at the restaurant but were completely ignored, not even a "we'll be with you in a minute". After waiting a while and having no luck with any of the service staff we went to the bar. They weren't particularly busy, we waited and waited but no acknowledgement and the service was super slow so we after fifteen minutes of not even recognition we were waiting, we left and went to a restaurant down the road.I won't be going back.

The beer's very good but not cheap. I asked the barman if he would top up my pint. He put it under the tap, made the smallest possible splash and ended the conversation with "that's a legal head of beer". I always thought the customer was right - however not in this case. The beer was good, I pay for a pint, I expect fairly close to a pint - I'm not unsympathetic that you need to carry the pint from the bar without spilling any. Hey ho I'll go elsewhere - there's plenty of choice.

We recently visited The Old Dairy for Sunday lunch on a Sunday afternoon. This was our first time eating at TOD. We regularly visit this pub for drinks, and we consider this the best pub in Stroud Green / Crouch Hill for drinks and watching sport. The bar staff are really friendly and there's always a great atmosphere to watch sport.We were a group of 8 (4 couples). On the positive side, when the food arrived it was great. Things that could be improved upon - the service was slow and there are not enough waiting staff. We were not the only table looking for service (ordering, paying the bill etc.). The server forgot to put in the order 2 of the 8 meals, which left 2 people eating after the other 6. The server was very apologetic about this, and more than made up for it with a free round of drinks. Another negative was that when ordering beef I asked for it not to be rare and I was assured that "it is all served medium". Unfortunately when he beef arrived it was pink and the (small bits of fat) were raw. After the issue with the two meals, I chose not to complain and swap with my partner who was having chicken (which was lovely). In hindsight I should have said something.Overall, not a great first experience. The issues mainly seemed to be related to the staff and communication with/from the staff rather than the venue or the food itself. I'm sure we will eat here again, and hope for better next time.

Seven of us ate at The Old Dairy this evening and seven of us left feeling we'd had a very good meal in a comfortable restaurant. I started with a warm beetroot salad and followed this with smoked cod with a poached egg and chunky chips. Delicious complemented by good wine. I'd certainly return and am tempted to try their Sunday roast.

We went here for lunch with my family whilst visiting. A delicious and surprising menu from a pub. The lamb was fantastic as was the charcuterie board. Was back a few times for a drink in the evening and a good vibe was felt. I'm sure we will be back next time visiting.

There seems to be some new staff and although they are friendly the service has definitely slowed down a bit - to the point that sometimes we leave rather than waiting. Also - has the chef changed? We ordered the pork yesterday for a roast and it seems completely different to what it used to be - was quite disappointing really as it's usually fantastic. Hope you return to form......

We hired an area for my daughters Christening party. The area we were given was beautiful, spacious and we were able to add our own balloons and decorations and bring our own cake. The food was reasonably priced for the area (I had been quoted double for the same amount of food in other pubs!!) All staff were friendly, happy and helpful throughout the day, topping up cutlery, plates etc when needed. All our guests complimented us on our choice of venue and we will be returning soon to try the Sunday roasts! Thanks Again to the lovely staff!

We sussed out our new local and we were so pleased! It's lovely and bright and spacious, the staff are all so smiley, friendly and welcoming. We ordered a roast and both cleared our plates! It is fairly expensive, but that's because of its quality. We will definitely be back!

I find it quite unbelievable that, after claiming to be a vegetarian restaurant for years, they’re still selling non-vegetarian Parmesan on their menu - they even mention this on the website (calf rennet is made from dead calves). The Vegetarian Society contacted them about this in 2014, but they don’t appear to have taken it on board. There are so many vegetarian cheeses these days (I don’t mean vegan cheese, I mean dairy cheese made without animal rennet), it’s a shame they couldn’t accept this feedback. I wonder how many unsuspecting people have eaten here believing their food to be vegetarian, when it isn’t.

I came in and had a burger which was absolutely amazing. However, the experience I received from the waitress was absolutely poor. I was served by a girl who was clearly high on some drug, who I believe to be called Arleah as I overheard her name being called by other staff members. This girl was slow, rude and quite frankly seemed unable to do her job properly being under the influence of drugs. Other staff members who I saw behind the tills were clearly put off by this waitress' behaviour but couldn't do anything about it. I feel sorry for them and the business as this unprofessional behaviour takes away the focus from how good the food is! To the owners: you seriously need to consider who you hire as these types of people will bring your business to the ground!!!
