Just the right mix of glamour and cool make The Old Queen’s Head one of the best destinations in Islington for eating, boozing, dancing or simply just chilling out on one of the outside tables after a hard day at the office.
The ridiculously beautiful barstaff and similarly gorgeous clientele would be enough to put some of us plebs off were it not for the friendly ambiance and pleasant surroundings. And when the neon sign lights up, you know there’s something worth doing upstairs, be it speed dating, a band, a legendary DJ (Andy Weatherall has a regular slot) or just some extended boozing time.
Bags of character and great atmosphere, the Queen’s is well worth a visit any night of the week.

One of the best bars in Islington, The Old Queens Head has been around forever and constantly betters itself. Not content just being a local pub, they also have live music acts and well known DJ's (last week was Snow Patrol) lining up their evenings. Whether it be a casual dinner or night out, the Old Queens Head is bound to give you a good time.

A reliably fun and buzzing watering hole in the Angel/Islington bar circuit, anyone who lives in this neighbourhood and many from further out frequent this place of a weekend. Mid-week is probably your best bet though - there's no cover charge, you can skip the half-hour wait at the bar and there are often great live music acts.
