Absoloutely rammed on a Saturday afternoon with what appeared to be a wedding reception going on upstairs, It also seemed pretty full on gastro, one for midweek.

Little can be added to that below. A late Georgian pub, externally the pub is very blue and internally it's also quite pale blue/grey with interesting internal cellar flaps which you cross on entering. Décor is minimal, furniture is solid with large tables. Friendly staff, good loos. Very much a gastro-pub but the acoustics are very poor making for a lot of white noise when busy.
Ales: a reversed pump clip, Harvey's Sussex Best and Hammerton's N1, brewed in the next street so on good form but at £4.60 a pint.
I'd come again as this is one of N1's best, but not on a Friday or Saturday when the pub's at its busiest as the noise from conversation alone is deafening; makes for a great mini-crawl with the Hemingford, Albion and Crown.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Drapers Arms

Relaxed Barnsbury hostelry, with an opened-out and thoroughly refurbished 'J'-shaped interior with the bar centre-front and a dining area in one branch. Fairly basic furniture but attractive, understated light decor. Three decent real ales on handpump: Harvey's, Siren Under Current and Dark Star Antares red ale (£3.80).
