Blue Scrumpy left this review about Beavertown Corner Pin
With time to kill before attending a game at the stadium opposite, we decided to try to get into the Beavertown Corner Pin. It's home supporters only, but this didn't seem to present a problem for us.
Inside was busy, as you'd expect for a matchday. We queued for the ground floor bar before trying to take our drinks into the courtyard at the rear, which has its own bar. The outdoor area was actually even more packed than the front bar. So, we retreated back indoors. A later trip to the first-floor toilets revealed that there was also an upstairs room available for drinking, which I expect would have given us a much more relaxing impression.
There's no real ale here. The craft beer selection was limited to Beavertown - Lunar Haze, Lupuloid, Bloody 'Ell, Critical Mass, Young Sun, Neck Oil, Electric Mud, One Of Our Own, Bones Lager & Gamma Ray. I've never found a Beavertown beer I like and that story continued here, with both the Electric Mud & Lunar Haze being distinctly average or possibly below it. Plastic glasses didn't help.
This was a typical pre-match experience and one I doubt I will repeat.

Liked this a lot.Bright and welcoming with murals on the walls.Extensive rear gardens but empty on a cold night.A great range of Beavertown beers inc the one brewed on the kit in the Stadium.My two beers were great.Reasonably priced as well.Good friendly chatty staff but it was a quiet night for customers. The outside of the pub is painted the same colour as parts of my garden so it felt a bit like home.Nobody to nag me about my drinking is a plus.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Beavertown Corner Pin
Newly reopened and comprehensively redecorated by Beavertown, but the new staff were coping very well on an extremely busy NFL match day. Features a fairly small bar, with further seating available upstairs and an outside servery in the rear patio garden. Four craft beers - including Neck Oil (£5.50, which seems a lot, but is still £1.40 cheaper than inside the stadium) - plus a cider on tap.

Situated a mere kick away from the stands of White Hart Lane, the Corner Pin has been part of the Tottenham Hotspur culture for many decades. The exterior is painted in blue and white (what else) whilst the interior is actually quite plain with the Spurs theme quite underplayed considering. There are a few old pictures of players and action around the walls and the interior likewise with blue walls but it’s not as “in your face” as some of the other pubs (the Bricklayers, the Bill Nicholson and the Elbow Room immediately spring to mind). When a particularly undesirable team is in town, metal shutters protect the incumbents from any potential missiles and you need to have a match ticket to get in on match days. You would need to arrive unsociably early to bag a seat, otherwise it is vertical drinking and permanent jostling. There is a TV for sport but this is largely superfluous on match day. You would certainly not come here for the beer – pure keg and lager territory but you would come here to soak up some pre-match atmosphere and preview the latest terrace chants. If you find pub itself as matchday hell when trying to get served, there is a sizeable covered beer patio at the rear that copes admirably with the overspill although the temporary bar has a limited stock and service is equally pressurized. A couple of carbon unfriendly heaters make the area a bit more engaging in the winter months whilst in summer, the brick BBQ is more predominant. On any other occasion this place would be a rather dull and ordinary pub unless you were a Spurs fan but I have always felt that this place is part of the football clubs heritage and for that alone, every Spurs fan should go there if only to say they have been there. As they say, “Beers Up If You Hate Arsenal…”
