Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Fox on the Green

Reasonable-looking corner pub overlooking Islington Green. With quite tall windows on both facades, it's quite bright inside most of the staple-shaped bar area since the décor is also generally light (apart from the dark floor). There's also a reasonable amount of external seating along the main frontage and on a wider pavement on the side-street side. No cask ale these days, but a few vaguely crafty beers are available on tap, e.g. my pricey Hammerton's Panama Creature (£8.25).

A pretty nondescript corner pub with little in the way of any pub atmosphere, there was a choice of Doom Bar or Proper Job with Ghost Ship coming soon, hopefully not the same one Graham was waiting for last year.
One to walk past.

Graham Coombs left this review about Fox on the Green

A large corner pub with a few original features hiding beneath the distressed and industrial fascias, which presumably are designed to attract the local types. Garish signs and a couple of sports screens don't help. Something called Berties Bar is upstairs (not visited). Overall it feels a bit pubby but not quite right, although it could probably be improved with minimal effort. The handpumps had Seafarers and Ghost Ship sadly labelled as 'Coming Soon', leaving a rather indifferent Doom Bar.
