This place has recently been taken over and it is lovely. The interior is warm and sumptuous with lots of seating. The food was tasty and filling. I had the chicken pie which made me feel like a nap afterwards which is what I'm looking for in a pie! Good ales which I was sweetly given the opportunity to try before I buyed. Despite it's location of Dalston it seems to be surrounded by a cocoon of old architecture with the mews down one side and the alms house on the other; you would be forgiven for thinking you were somewhere far far away from Kingsland High Street. It has good free wifi connection and cycle stands if you're in to that. They've got a big projector for the sports in the back room too and one of the bar maids was hinting at the possiblity of getting a piano in the back in anticipation of knees ups and chamber music. Maybe not whilst the footies on.
