The De Beauvoir Arms, De Beauvoir Town, N1

The De Beauvoir Arms is a smart looking corner pub that is about halfway down Southgate road. Once inside there is a fairly large single room with the bar facing on entry,the floor is bare boarded,the seating is normal tables and chairs,there is an open kitchen to the rear left. There were two real ales on the bar,i had a drink of Black Sheep bitter which went down well,the other beer was St Austell Tribute. The pub was packed on my mid Saturday afternoon visit with both drinkers and diners. I thought this was a decent pub to have a drink in,i stayed here longer than normal as the heavens had opened and i did not want to get too wet on my short walk to the Scolt Head.

Imposing corner pub, with an opened-out interior leaving a staple-shaped bar behind the main seating area, a further small space (with piano) to one side and a much larger dining / kitchen area on the other. Plainly furnished and decorated, with a high ceilings, all leaving quite an austere impression. Patio benches to front and side. Four of five handpumps operational, dispensing Marston's EPA, Portobello Star (£4.00), Broadside and Rosie's Pig cider.
