The Jolly Sisters, Lower Holloway, N7

This is a bit of a strange place as I would say that it has been converted into a pub from an end of terrace house, which makes a change as it is usually the other way around. There are a couple of picnic tables on the path outside and ‘FREEHOUSE’ is written in big letters above the front entrance, but there are no real ales here. There is a standard draught selection though and the well kept Guinness was served by the very friendly governor. It’s not very big, but it is still split in two with the main bar area being at the front and a room at the rear with some larger tables and a dartboard. There is a plasma screen in the front bar that was showing a championship football match on Sky Sports, but this was muted to give way to some random 80s and 90s hits playing in the background. Although probably not worth going out of the way for this is a pleasant enough local backstreet pub and I would have no problem returning if in the area.

Very Warm Atmosphere typical of a local pub. Friendly bar staff and music to suit all tastes.
