A must if in the area. And must be in the Top 3 of the Craft Beer Co chain. The main drawback is that this place is not massive so space can be a premium. Does help if you don't mind sharing a table. When I went to gigs more regularly I used to come here often but ironically since I've been prioritising beer ticking I've only been here around once in about 4 years. But my most recent visit didn't let me down with an array of UK and US breweries making it hard to choose.

Two blocks walk from Angel tube. Nice old large pub. Nice ambiance, music was at civilised levels, neighborhood feel. Rather secondary beer choice. Besides standards Sound Wave and Kernel Pale ale, only one of 30 taps was above score 3.5. Really not worth going there for beer.

Good selection but other than that this place was nothing special. Also, maybe I was unlucky, but the service was kinda poor when I was there.

I visited on a Saturday afternoon and it was very quiet. Got noisy and busy around 5pm. Around 25-30 taps/pumps, mostly British, all "crafty". Worth a visit. Food is mainly burgers and the one I had was tasty.

Great craft beer destination with a wide and varied selection of cask & keg beers, it’s short walk from Angel tube station. More choices in the fridge. Shabby chic interior. Good service from knowledgeable staff. As usual with a CBC bar prices are a little on the high side, but even so it’s a bar that is definitely worth travelling to

A busy & popular pub I've been to a few times, excellent selection of hand pumps serving beers from independent brewers. Prices are on the steep side, nearly £6 a pint on my recent visit.
