The Nags Head

Good place to stop on upper st for drink with friends. Good service and food that is snavky. We had nachos and they were large will not disappoint.

I popped in to see a couple of my pals brave the open mic night and found the bar staff to be both polite and attentive, as indeed they should be but if you're a Londoner like myself you'll know that to expect good service is a recipe for frustration and disappointment - so well done girls, I felt like a welcome and valued customer! Food looked great and smelled even better, although I didn't eat myself. Beer was chilled to perfection and brilliantly bubbly. I can only speak for the fellas here but the little boys room was sanitary and 'sans' stink, always a bonus in a London boozer. If you fancy a break from the chain run big'ns and appreciate a casual, comfortable pub that isn't trying to be anything other than 'a pub' then check it out. Look out for free live music in the form of open mic nights and other intimate and more low-key performances - posters & flyers will tell you what's on and when. I'd definitely visit again and intend to soon :)

First time there for a long time; just had a pint of Timothy Taylor Landlord and was a bit taken aback to be charged £5.60. I know I wasn't in Wetherspoon's but Landlord isn't what I would call craft, nice enough though it was. Atmosphere seemed nice
