Pretty pub. Looks like an independent so we were surprised to see it had exactly the same menu as The Angel Inn in Highgate.
I enjoyed my wings there a few weeks ago so had them again today. Nice smokey chargrilled wings drizzled in a little sweet sauce. Also ordered the padron peppers which were sprinkled with some rough salt. My companion's pulled pork sliders were very tasty with lashings of BBQ sauce.
Friendly service. Cash payments only.
A fantastic venue to hold a party! It's a lovely private room, the communication organising this was great. We ordered some buffet food (the premium set, 25 for 60 people, supplied most people with some nibbles) which was really delicious, and the staff were lovely!! We were allowed to decorate and play our own music, and it really personalised our event. I would thoroughly recommend booking here.
Apart from that, the only draw backs are that it's down a flight of stairs so if you have any disabled attendees take that into consideration, and it would have been nice to have an extra bar staff who could support when the bar was busy and clear away glasses in-between. Was also warm at first, but I think they must have turned on the aircon.
I'd happily book again or suggest it to others. Thanks for giving me a lovely evening to remember.
The Washington is a beautiful pub on England's lane.
They have a pub quiz evening during the week and jazz nights on Sunday (18:30-21:00).
This pub is usually very well visited during evenings and on weekends. I recommend booking a table in advance via phone.
During those hours it gets very loud and it's difficult to have a relaxed conversation.
There are a few small tables in front of the pub as well (since it's located at a small junction it might not be the most peaceful location to have a chat).
👍 The staff is always kind and the pub looks very clean and well maintained.
So far all the food we've had was great and beautifully served.
💷 The main reason why we don't come here often are the prices (e.g. £5.5 for a small portion of chips).
Once in a while it's fine but compared to other pubs in the area it does seem to be on the higher side.
A great Victorianesque pub tucked away between Belsize Park and Primrose Hill. A fine range of beers from both the keg and cask. This is a card only place, just a word of warning. A lovely looking bespoke menu with a wide variety of dishes on offer. The staff are lovely and proficient, most importantly with a smile!! I have enjoyed a lovely pint and love all the etched glass. A great pub, thank you.
After a very lengthy walk on a sultry summer day we stumbled upon the Washington around mid afternoon and were warmly greeted by the establishments lovely manager.
Both she and her team made us feel very much at home and the locals played a full part in creating a lively, friendly atmosphere.
The service was first class and the food was plentiful and tasty.
We whole heartedly recommend a visit to this most characterful hostelry.
Probably the best London pub we have ever visited.
Grateful thanks from the both of us.

I made a reservation on the Same day of our visit. The table was spacious and the service was great. The male waiter who initially served us and at different point was particularly good- very polite but, unfortunately did not take his name (he was wearing glasses). The food was tasty- the fried wings were delicious! I will definitively recommend the Washington to others. Also, the pub is doggo friendly!
This pub is an ABSOLUTE gem!!! Service is impeccable, they're always friendly, super attentive and make you feel welcome, food is superb, been there multiple times so I have tried almost everything on the menu ans it never disappoints, drinks are great too! Would definitely recommend
Despite being pricy, the warm atmosphere, great food, service and pints make it a 5 start pub. Only comment - as a local, it would be great to see some mid-week deals on drinks/food? I'd definitely come back for those. Great pub overall.
I’ve recently moved in the area and I discovered this pub just around the corner…I would say that it’s one of the best pub I’ve been dining to since I live here in London. Food, drinks, draught beers, service and atmosphere was top notch! I will definitely come back to the Washington anytime soon🔝
It's an amazing place for a drink or dinner. The place has a relaxed atmosphere. The staff is really kind and helpfull. And the variety of meals on the menu is great! Will definitely come back, as soon as possible. 👍👍
What a beautiful looking pub inside which gives the pub a great vibe. Super friendly staff with table service. Great beer (on tap) and wine selection in a really nice part of town. Quite a varied menu selection also that is Definately worth a try at very reasonable prices. So whats not to like!
Been back here again and i just love everything about this place. Great atmosphere showing the world cup and super friendly owners. I just love an independent pub. Always great to support a local venue
Booked a table for a meet-up with old friends. Very convivial atmosphere, nice decor, extremely friendly staff. Good food at reasonable prices. Very happy we went here!
This pub is beyond incredible! The landlady Antonia is as sweet as honey and will do her best to help make you feel at home. She picked the loveliest staff on earth
Top class lunch. Service and welcome excellent. Gorgeous old fixtures and fittings but relaxed atmosphere. Clearly have a talented chef with highlights of arrancini haloumi fries and homemade bread. Will deffo return..
Everything was perfect, food, drinks, price and staff were lovely especially our waitress. Beautiful old fashion pub!! Will definitely be going back!!!
Hosted a team party for us in their function room on Monday night. We were looked after so well. I highly recommend this pub!
Beautiful pub with original features and ver smart. We didn't have any food but it looked good. Quite pricey but I guess that's normal in the area.
Had a lovely afternoon here! The place is super cute, the food was delish, and our server Jen was so super nice! Wish we could’ve come back more during our trip! The Sausage roll and arancini were our favorites!
Food was nice, although menu has less choice than it usually does (the only fish option was fish and chips- I’ve had meals here before where the fish options were better). Staff were a bit haphazard (no one knew what brandy was?!) also, aircon was turned up so high it was FREEZING in there!!
On plus side- Loved the live music!
