The Old Queens Head in East Hampshire

Really nice pub. Surprisingly good cheeseburger and Mac & Cheese.

Amazing bar, great atmosphere, beautiful decoration

My fave local pub in Islington- also killer roast on Sundays

Came for drinks on Saturday with the girlfriends. The staff were brilliant and really looked after us. The vibes were amazing and we had a fab time.

The food and the atmosphere are great.

Visited on Saturday night had to ask the bouncers to remove a man who was touching my friend not even five minutes later he was back on the dance floor. Later on got groped by a man eventually security removed him but no one said anything or checked on us. Management and staff clearly aware of what was going on No one said a thing, The place is full of seedy men looking for Vulnerable women. Avoid at all costs. Only good thing was the music.

Spicy margs & super sweet bartenders 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

The Old Queen’s Head is a proper chill spot. If you're into good vibes and cool people, you'll love it here. The beer’s cold, just how it should be, and there’s plenty of options to choose from. The garden’s where it’s at, though—tons of space, super laid-back, and perfect for hanging out with mates. It’s the kind of pub where you can spend hours without even realizing. Definitely worth a visit!

Came in on a Sunday evening with a friend, what a great pub! Such a great atmosphere, and despite what seemed like a busy night everyone behind the bar was very attentive. Will definitely be back for more spicy margs!

nice place, but it got insanely packed at around 1am, felt very uncomfortable. also the DJ had an annoying style where they would only play a song for 20-30 seconds before skipping to the next one. I would go again but definitely leave before it becomes too crowded

Meh. Many better bars in the area

I paid 6 pounds for a ticket and they wouldn't even let me in. Not because I was too drunk. Just because there were too many people. This place doesn't cater for anyone. Absolutely ridiculous. Also was surrounded by police the whole time. Had to sneak in 2hrs after I first tried.

Booked a 30 person section for a birthday (they OK’d the number! ) that turned out to be a (maximum) 5 person half booth, next to several much larger ones. Just gross dishonesty in a very busy room. Gross dishonesty that’s ruined the whole event

Fabulous Sunday Roast in a great pub setting.

Very disappointed, paid £10 for entry after a long days work and was refused service for apparently being too intoxicated. Was told to come back In 10 minutes for some unknown reason. Also wouldn’t let me buy a round so worked out cheap but was annoying service from bar staff. I wouldn’t recommend for large groups or party, it ruined the night and split the group up !

Marvelous place ! A classic pub !

One of the best burgers I've tried in the city

Very disappointing Sunday Roast. Gravy was watery and had no flavour, very stingy with the roast meats and they were cut in thin slices. I had to ask for salt to season everything. Service was ok, had to ask twice for water and it was difficult getting the servers attention to ask for salt. Go elsewhere for your roast.

Was a regular here until my friends were discriminated against when trying to get entry

Beautiful pub, friendly service, delicious vegetarian Sunday Roast ❤️ and very affordable

The atmosphere was really nice. The service was also good. However, the Sunday roast had a lot more meat than I expected, so it was difficult to cut into pieces. But the Yorkshire pudding soaked in broth was delicious. This is also a risk that must be taken into account since it is a reasonable price.

Great pub, lovely, attentive staff. Terrible roast.

One of the best Pubs in London. And the Sunday Roasted is very good.

Apparently supposed to be the best Roast in North London now I know why it's a comedy pub as they are joking meat was unedible veg raw roast potatoes like concrete blocks. I will send pic please save your money eat at a Toby carvery or elsewhere this place is a complete rip off. The food is so bad that I may have to get hygiene services involved there doesn't seem to be any proper taste test of food. Just look at the lamb fat with meat trim and photo looks yellow so you cannot see the food your eating

Great atmosphere -- both upstairs and down. Delicious roast -- I had the lamb -- and burgers. Good spicy bloody Mary's as well, which are not easy to come by in London.

Food and atmosphere are fantastic....beer is way too basic unfortunately

Great pub! We visited late on a Thurs and the pub was buzzing with a nice vibe...packed, but not too busy, and excellent bar staff kept the bar wait to a minimum!

I absolutely LOVE this place. Came for karaoke which was so easy to use and a great selection of songs to choose from! I wanted to give a shoutout to the incredible service from the staff. In particular Craig, Rory and Gabi. Super friendly and Gabi was incredible helpful when she helped me fix my shoe which saved my night 😄 will defo be coming back.

Booked a night out with our boxing club here at The Old Queens Head last Friday. What a cracking night. We had the Karaoke room booked for 2 hours and what a fabulous time we had. The staff were brilliant, they kept the drinks flowing and cold water also, cool our singing pipes. Was so much fun. We then finishing the night dancing to the djs set. All round, great evening. We’ll be back!

The staff here were all very nice, accommodating, and friendly, especially as we’d shown up last minute for Sunday roast (a Sunday flexibility that’s rare in London). The roast itself was lovely and made all the better by the nice environment and first-class service!

Classic pub around Angel area at this point, busy and nice food. Great burgers and sides, lamb roast was meh fatty and small portion of meat. Good drinks

Burgers, bath tubs of beer, And banging karaoke ! All in all the perfect Friday night. Staff are amazing extremely helpful and very well organised . Karaoke equipment is superb. And when you’re done singing your heart out, there’s always the upstairs dancefloor !! 5/5

Had a fabulous time in the karaoke room, great space and equipment - zero glitches! Also really enjoyed the DJ set on the second floor after our session ended. Vibe check 💯 🔥 Great food, super attentive and friendly staff :)

I went here for a drink. It was absolutely overcrowded last night, it was impossible to breathe in the dancefloor upstairs.

What a fabulous place for a fun and fantastic karaoke night and club to follow! Top top top!

What a fun night we had. First karaoke in a cool red-pink booth (couldn’t have enough after 2 hours) then the dance floor at the bar with great tunes

Had the Sunday roast. Apart from how absolutely delicious and delectable a delight it was, the excellent and lovely people at the pub made it all the more charming.

Food was very bland and lukewarm. Yorkshire pudding wasn’t edible as it was hard and dry. Wanted a apple crumble for dessert but they didn’t have it on that day…

No real ale and very unhealthy food options, a bit limited. Very friendly staff though!

It's definitely a very old bar/club, and some say that the place is haunted as well. You'd understand why the moment you enter the place; especially with all the old paintings and sculptures hanging on the walls all around. There's a small club upstairs. Friday nights are r&b, hip hop nights. Try to reserve a table especially if you're a big group. If not, it's a space that becomes alive only later into the night. We got ourselves a G&T and left shortly after.

Great lively spot to unwind after a day's work

Tbh the roast was glorious!! Its was perfect and the service is top notch as well. I am urged to leave a comment though because after such a golden plate of Sunday roast, I ordered a sticky toffee pudding - quite excited to end the meal in a rich and sweet note - the menu said it should come with a scoop of ice cream but I kid you not and I’m not sure if it’s a mistake but the scoop it came with was pure BUTTER. Is that normal? I wasn’t sure. But it wasn’t pretty having a spoonful of that butter (margarine even?!) in my mouth. Had my best friend verify if indeed it was butter - it was. We weren’t sure if it was supposed to be that way (maybe some modern rendition of sticky toffee pudding?!) or it was a mistake. Whatever it was, didn’t touch it anymore and left. Horrified hence 3/5.

Went there yesterday to meet friends for drinks & food and it's such a nice cosy pub to hang out in on a Sunday. Didn't have a roast but they looked amazing from what I saw of the tables around me - definitely an excuse to go back!

Great atmosphere! Food and drinks really good! Service is always perfect!

Such a good Friday night out spot. Chill vibe w good music

The Old Queen's Head is a solid choice for a Sunday roast with friends. Its hearty portions, lively atmosphere, and good selection of drinks make for a delightful weekend dining experience. Just be sure to book in advance and arrive hungry!

Loved Coming here! The People, Vibe and Drinks are all Top Notch. Happy we came

I love love love The Old Queens Head! I had an amazing Sunday roast there, i’ve also attended a Saturday night there where the upstairs room is transformed into a club/ dance night. Some nights are grime and rap etc. The pub itself is just really beautiful. The decor and atmosphere is incredible, its such a beautiful building. 10/10 pub!

Fab London pub full of charm with stunning decor and just very good vibes all round. Ordered burgers on a Saturday afternoon which they do in collaboration with Lucky Chip Burgers - brilliant stuff. Not the thin smash burgers that all the trend now, these are proper delicious wagyu beef patties. Quite a few options to choose from inc the best friend chicken burger the missus has ever tasted and there was a vegan option too. All in all, a superb London pub that offers good vibes, drinks and food that doesn’t try too hard. Love it.

If you’re looking for a no-fuss, feel-good spot to kick back with a pint and some good food, The Old Queens Head won’t disappoint. It’s got that perfect blend of classic pub charm and a bit of modern flair. Definitely worth a visit!

The staff were very friendly and the food and drinks were amazing! Definitely recommend the queens head pub!

The team are an absolute delight and make the most delicious cocktails! 10/10 recommend coming here!

Over from Australia to catch up with family and this was a great place for an outing. Great service awesome food and loved Izzy and her fantastic personality.. Cheers Blair and Tammy.

Lexi stole the show, best bar person I've met in a long time. Reece the manager is doing an excellent job. Looking forward to returning soon x

Excellent evening at Old Queens. Had the playroom and the karaoke room upstairs for a work party and the team looked after us like we were their own. Atmosphere downstairs was also amazing, would deffo come back for a midweek drink. Best spot in North.

Great venue and atmosphere, friendly staff, and fab food.

Queens is the best pub in the area - and if you get the elusive spot in front of the fire place on a Sunday afternoon, it’s even better!

The vibes are off the charts bruh - never had a bad night upstairs. The disco night always goes off!!

Always a fun place to have a drink and some food. Sunday roast is excellent. Staff is incredibly friendly

Great pub and a great atmosphere!

Went as a vegan - burgers are great and stayed for the entire evening to have a dance! Really great place, definitely recommend

Cool bar, good crowd, nice staff, good drinks. That’s all you need to know really.

Great pub. Spent the evening here last week and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Food was really good and had a great atmosphere. Lovely staff too.

The Old Queen's Head pub is a great spot with a relaxed vibe and great for people-watching. You get a real mix of people here, from locals to out-of-towners, all enjoying the laid-back atmosphere. The staff are cool and make great drinks. I know I will keep coming back here, its such a great pub.

Visited this stunning venue for a family gathering upstairs for Sunday lunch. We were greeted and looked after by such lovely staff. The food was awesome. This place is renowned for its Roasts. The ambience with the music and the decor was so relaxing and spot on for a Sunday. Will definitely be returning soon.

Probably the best Roast Chicken in London?! The Old Queens Head is a local pub in the Angel station, Essex Road area of North London Pros: If it's a Sunday, order the Sunday Roast Chicken! You won't be disappointed. The chicken is cooked in a 12 hour sous vide method is incredibly moist, succulent and juicy! Tasty, plentiful and great value for money! Service is wonderful too! Matthew's team were so friendly and accommodating. They very kindly accommodated my pregnant wife and cooked her lamb a bit more well done. Roast potatoes are very nice. Very soft! Lovely decor too! Very picturesque and photogenic inside! Great WiFi too! Cons: None really. A little bit far from Angel tube station. But definitely worth it for the tasty Sunday roast chicken. In short, Old Queens Head is an unassuming local pub in north London. But surprisingly serves possibly the best, juiciest, most succulent and most tender Sunday roast Chicken in London! And at incredible value at £17.9 on a Sunday! In short, well done to Matthew and his team at the Old Queens Head! Just go and and try the roast chicken! You won't regret it. I definitely will be coming back. Especially for the tasty Corn Fed Roast Chicken with the Garlic Aioli! Well done Old Queens Head! 🙂🤗

Really gutted that I had a bad experience as I was looking forward to this so much. Popped in to have dinner before going to the theatre by myself. Atmosphere in the pub is lovely, I really like the decor. I went up to the bar to order and the man who served me was quite snappy and blunt which already made me feel dejected. I ordered a Gus Fring burger without buffalo sauce, and chips. I also ordered a pint of coke. Coke was great, fries were delicious but unfortunately the burger was just awful. I left 90% of it due to a deep worry of food poisoning. The chicken was wet, slightly off coloured. I even texted my partner who was away and asked for an opinion, and we both agreed that it would be better for me to leave the burger. Since this meal last night, I have felt quite unwell and I have to believe this is due to the burger. The other stickler was that a burger, chips and drink cost me £20.50 at this establishment. £20 to have barely any dinner because the burger was not cooked properly? I find that really quite awful and disappointing as I enjoyed the fries and loved the vibe. It's a real shame that this happened because I was really hoping for a nice dinner, and unfortunately all I had was a little basket of chips and less in my bank account.

I love visiting the Old Queen's Head, they serve the best roast dinner in London at any time of the day. The atmosphere is always great, with a demure yet inviting vibe, and the staff are consistently friendly. I always go for the veggie mushroom Wellington because it's amazing, while my partner opts for the lamb roast—we both leave with empty plates. We never skip the cauliflower cheese, and we always make room for the sticky toffee pudding.

Really enjoyed the vegan roast on a Sunday has become a regular

Bit foggy upstairs but still a vibe

Awesome spot. The lucky chip burger was great. Owners were also really hospitable! Great atmosphere for a Wednesday too!

Pub with great cocktails and very fun vibes

Lucky chip burger and fries were amazing. Highly recommend. Great pub with great food!

It is a great pub in Islington. Atmosphere is amazing all the time.

Vinyage surroundings, good and busy, but small for it's purpose

Had an amazing time at the Old Queens Head! It's the perfect spot for drinks with friends. The pub has a great vibe, and a cozy hidden garden—ideal for a laid-back night. The drink selection is fantastic, and the service is always friendly. Definitely a must-visit if you're in the area!

£10 entry for the most basic bar ever, AVOID.

Door man so rude didn’t even let us talk to him

Perfect pub for a Sunday afternoon. Burgers were absolutely delicious, cocktails on point. Brilliant friendly vibe, personable staff and overall perfect atmosphere. Great outdoor space to sit out in the sun too! Can't wait to go back!

Cool pub with a club upstairs. Great spot to meet up with friends

Me and my mates came for an evening roast here. I genuinely never make google reviews but I had the worst roast/meal out of my life here. I was here a year ago and the roast was amazing, today it tasted cheap like a school meal. Think cold uncrispy potatoes, lump of dry squeaky chicken and bisto gravy, don’t get me started on the cremated Yorkshire that was broke into powdery dry pieces. We were taking out our friend to show her what a roast was, and it was a sad day to be British. I was embarrassed. We actually had to sum up courage to say something to the waiter, who told us that the roasts aren’t good in the evenings. Then why serve them to paying customers? There are a lot of places to get amazing roasts from pubs that care about their customer’s experience - this is not one of them guys.

Just been to the Old Queens head. I haven’t been here in a year and the last time I was I loved the food, specifically the roast. To go back today and see how far it’s fallen from grace was sad to see. Powdery potatoes, unseasoned chicken, limp veg and the most burnt Yorkshire pudding I’ve ever had. Turns into dust in your mouth. To finish off a sticky toffee pudding that was lukewarm and had cream on it. Why I do not know. All for an eye watering £30. When pulled up on the food we were told if we want better food we should come earlier in the day. For the love of god, do not go. You deserve better than this. For your money you can get better

Great place, karaoke was amazing, could be better if on tap beers would be brought up to karaoke room and if they would allow to finish last song.

I had my birthday party here and it was amazing! The private room was so fun and the staff were so lovely

Such an excellent pub! Love the busts and tile decor. We visited when there was a popup burger menu by Lucky Chip and the burgers were second to none. Pints were decently priced for central London. The server was very nice despite the queue and the service was fast. Would definitely visit again !

Great pub in Islington Essex road to unwind over the weekend or after work, soft background music, good service, and fairly priced for food and beverage.

First time back in 10 years and still the best Roast in North London! Great service, pub beautiful as ever and air con an absolute win on a day as hot as this. Had a cheeky side of pigs in blankets so no room for desert. Next time!

Nice pub and decor. My roast dinner was cold and the yorkshire was burnt. Tge 2 people I was with said theirs was cold/luke warm. I hope the chef takes this on board. If it was hot and yorkshire not burnt to a crisp it would have been nice. I feel I wasted my money.

Love the ambience! The burger and mushroom Wellington were both vegan and amazing. Be careful that some websites claim they have a vegan Yorkshire pudding, but they do not. The server caught that quickly, though. The room was beautiful and the location easy to find.

Great Sunday roast had everything you needed and more on a Sunday. Extremely friendly staff

Love the food! Such a fantastic roast! And I had the veggie option! Also been here for drinks at an event and did karaoke too on a seperate occasion and that was amazing too! Staff are super friendly!

Very well priced Sunday Lunch at £17 with tasty gravy. They gave our daughter 2 glasses of fizz for free as it was her birthday! My companions LOVED their burgers and we all loved the cocktails especially the spicy mojito. The decor is fun Victorian reclamation, probably styled be a film set decorator. Sunday lunch had a jolly atmosphere for with a mix of young and old. Good bar.

The pub is incredible, staff is nice and food is good

The staff was lovely and the roasts incredible 🔥✨

Great pub for football. Prices not too bad too

Nice vibes here with good service. Food was okay - had the Sunday roast which was good value for money.

Amazing cocktails and great atmosphere every time I visit this place

I had such a great time the atmosphere Was unreal. Very recommended.

Classic boozer with indoor and outdoor seating. Eccentric interiors and great service, could do with a good clean😂

Great atmosphere, would definitely recommend for a Sunday lunch
