Amazing selection of curries. Lots of vegan options. Really delicious food and a great chill vibe. Service was great too.

We loved this small independent pub, which strikes the perfect balance between a local boozer and a welcoming, homely spot. It’s a unique blend of Indian and British culture. With a great beer selection and a diverse Indian menu to match, this pub feels special. Both the onion bhajis and tikka naan were fantastic and tasted very homemade. The guy behind the bar was really friendly, and we loved all the events they host. This is exactly the kind of pub we should be supporting—unique and independent. We'll definitely be back for more!

Called in for lunch and had a really high-quality chicken naan dish (had obviously been cooked from scratch, could see the fresh herbs and cinnamon sticks etc in the sauce). Staff were really pleasant & the atmosphere was warm and friendly. Looked like they had an interesting evening entertainment schedule too - will definitely go back!

Good pub, I liked the decor and general atmosphere. Decent selection of beers, friendly service. Whilst there I ordered the Lamb curry naan, I was a bit disappointed unfortunately. Far too salty, and a few shards of lamb bone in the sauce. Also, would have been improved if it came with a little bit of mint/cucumber yoghurt.

If you do not wish to be assaulted by a large man do not go here. I was attacked while trying to provide feedback on being spoke to rudely. Absolutely discourage all from going. The assailant also responded to confirm he had no interest in feedback. Despite Kate the landlady explaining she wanted to learn from this prior to him attacking me.

I was curious about it being close to my accommodation, so I went to have a beer. Very friendly staff. The store was full, but what about this place? He went out of his way to prepare seats for us. Too kind. Apparently there is live music, but it wasn't playing when I visited. Probably because it was early. disappointing. I wanted to eat here because the food here was highly rated, but unfortunately I was full and only had beer. Ah...live music and food... Delicious beer and friendly staff... I decided I would definitely come here again.

We stumbled across this pub and it turned out to be a great spot, with that classic English pub feel. You walk in and it's your classic local jaunt, that you'd gladly spend a lot of time in as it's a nice place The pleasant surprise was discovering their food menu, which came with some South Asian bites that were absolutely amazing. This pub and it's cuisine are right at home in Farringdon, and the while experience was so good I'd gladly return to savour more of the sweet, spicy delicacies whilst washing them down with good beer.

Nice down to earth pub, friendly staff, has board games, very chilled. But the main thing that drew me in was the food menu, indian Street food, at a pub! So we ordered pakoras, golgappa, masala fries and the paneer tikka naan. The Paneer was yummy, so soft! And I liked the naan. Pakoras were nice, although the aubergine was lacking salt or seasoning. I love gol gappa but was disappointed with the ones here. We were served them with warm yoghurt chutney and not "pani" (which is cold seasoned water with tamarind and spices). Without this, it's just not gol gappa I'm afraid. Overall not bad at all! I love indian Street food and just wanted to give an honest review. Oh, one more thing, please give bigger portions of the chutneys, they were tiny!

I visited Tuesday lunchtime with a friend /colleague. We arrived 12:30 and ordered a mushroom wrap and a chicken tikka wrap in nan bread. Two minutes later the Indian chef appeared, charming and full of apologies that the food would take 20 minutes. We said that was fine. It arrived in about 15. The Nan breads were exquisitely fluffy and sweet, the flavour of the mushrooms and the tikka was very well developed, and both came with delicate and well flavoured salad , finely chopped, as part of the wrap. These were meant to be starters, but made a very good light lunch. I can’t wait to go again.

It is really disappointing that the new management have no consideration for their neighbours. Their patrons block the whole pavement, can be offensive toward passers-by and are allowed to shout during the day and late into the evening. The Old Ivy is probably now the rowdiest of Clerkenwell’s pubs, not exactly something to be proud of. Shame as the neighbourhood has so many great pubs and the local one could have been a great one too.

Me di cuenta de que hice un pedido el día de Navidad, solo porque anunciaron que estarían abiertos. No hubiera perdido el tiempo si pensara que cancelarían en el último minuto sin explicación. No todo el mundo tiene una familia para tener una comida tradicional de Navidad, así que pensé que una entrega de comida india ayudaría a hacer que el día fuera más rápido, pero Dinner Express realmente me decepcionó. Y en el último minuto.

Disgusting food, staff shouting on their phone making calls. Can get much better quality down the road in Drummond Street (near Warren Street tube) and worth the effort if you want to feel good as you dine. Avoid this rubbish place if you can.
