The Shaftesbury Tavern in Islington

Friendly staff, very relaxed atmosphere, good selection of beers and, when hungry, a yummy Thai kitchen is at hand to provide either snacks or full dinner.

Nice little quiet pub. The service was very friendly, the food was slightly below standard, but it wouldn't stop me from coming back. Definitely a nice place for a quiet drink during the week.

Thanks for an AMAZING roast dinner!! I had the cider braised belly pork that came with a yorkshire pudding the size of my head, beautifully cooked veggies and crispy roasties!! We'll be back next Saturday to try out the Thai menu!!

Just popped in for a light lunch and drinks. Food was lovely, staff very friendly and there's a good sized outdoor space. Will be returning at some point when I'm next in London.

Always friendly staff. Foods delicious. Tasty guest beers. Clean and comfy. Outside seating with cover and a few heaters. Free sanitary products in the bathroom just incase.Doesn't open till 5pm on weekdays.

The pub itself is beautiful. Staff are so lovely. Had the red Thai curry the other day and it really hit the spot for a mid week lazy dinner.

Amazing gem in this part of town. Wide choice of drinks, great Thai food. Massive portions. But more importantly, very welcoming landlord and the friendly staff. Feels like second home. :) Highly recommend to visit!

I loved this pub! Met some friends there who lived locally, great beer selection, gorgeous live music in the background and my only regret was not having one of the gorgeous looking roasts passing by!

Great local pub, nice warm space.The food is really tasty and the portions are great. I cannot recommend enough the massive burgers and the free juke box is a great plus!Pet friendly - they even have dog treats :)They got an active fire place in the winter :)

Very mediocre pub food. Beef was very chewy and cold, chicken was dry, vegetables were few. Service was quite pleasant but I cannot eat it.
