The Crown is a Grade II listed Victorian gastropub with a varied food menu including your usual pub staples plus some nice-sounding specials and meat and cheese platters. It's worth noting that all Fullers pubs currently have a 20% off food offer until 26 July (Monday - Thursday only).
It's well off the beaten track so a good option if you want to escape the Islington throngs.
Cosy rating: 6/10 - I'm sure on a less sunny evening with the fireplace is roaring it would be very cosy indeed. Sofas in the back room towards the kitchen.
Secret rating: 7/10 - It's located on a beautiful Islington residential street - just do not make the mistake of whipping out your Rightmove app whilst you're there as it's too depressing!
Best bits: The homemade pork scratchings are definitely worth highlighting - you get a generous half-pint's worth and most were bigger than my longest finger. Mind those teeth!
Worst bits: The lovely central wooden bar means that the interior space isn't maximised, but it is a stunning original feature.
