The Junction London Reviews


Top Notch! - Love this place! We always start nights out in Islington and Angel at the Junction. There is great music, especially on Thursdays and Fridays when the live DJ is playing. My favourite is to visit on a Thursday and get 2 cocktails for the price of 1 - the Reggae Rum Punch is awesome! Follow that with a few Tequilas and its the perfect start to the night. The staff are great here and the bar is massive so you know you will always get a seat if you want one.

Stay away from here!!!! - The was the most horrific bar experience I have had in a long time.

Me and my boyfriend used the '241' cocktail promotion that they have running (which they seemed a bit disgruntled about) Anyway they served up two face crunchingly tangy mojitos that were genuinelly impossible to drink. When we explained that there was clearly a mistake the bar lady actuallt stormed of in a huff screaming that she would make them again. VERY UNNECCESSARY.

On top of this the new ones never arrived instead we were thrust out money back and were not allowed to order something different. SHOCKING.

No to the best bit - suddenly we were offered two more mojitos which they had decorated with some sort of chilli topping.

I will NEVER return to this place and I will make sure that everyone I know does not either.

Good front patio - Met a few friends for drinks last weekend at the Junction. As it was a nice day, we wanted a place we could share a pint outside in the sun. The Junction, right across from Highbury-Islington tube station, has a good sized pavement courtyard that fits in about 8 picnic tables perfectly suited for just this activity. The main problem to point out about this sizable outdoor area is that it is basically between the pub and the high street, which is pretty busy with cars and buses, so it could be more relaxing..
Inside, the Junction is a pretty spacious area, but one that is not often filled to capacity, according to my friend who lives in the neighborhood. Apparently it has relatively recently had a pretty serious makeover and is now all leather loungers, plasma screens and wood-fired oven pizza's. When the weather uncharitably turned on us during our outdoor drinking, we headed inside and managed to find a nice cozy corner tucked away from most of the rest of the pub to finish our pints.
As for those pints, there was a sort of mid-range choice of beer and cider to select from. I went with San Miguel, which is in my category of beer that is a fine selection, but also something of one to fall back upon when there's no better choices (ditto for Staropramen or *shudder* Stella - it must be something about the S's).
All in all, a decent pub and a good one to visit on a sunny afternoon or warm evening.

Great Gormet Style Burgers - For between £6 & £7 you can choose from a selection of about 15 gormet style burgers. Each burger is accompanied by a bowl of delicious thinly sliced french fries. Food are well presented.

* the bar-ladies are also very pleasing on the eye
