The Tollington Arms - Islington

Good pub with reasonably priced drinks and (although I've not tried it) what looks like some good Thai food. Certainly the place to go if you're a gooner.

The place was recommended by an Arsenal Club shop employee at the stadium. We were just looking for a quick drink but ended up staying for the afternoon. Prices are very reasonable, space is big and clean. Surprising selection of food, Thai and English tasty and simple, went down perfect with drinks. The above isn’t the only reason why we will definitely be back. The reason is Jo! Jo has been working at this place for over 10 years. She made us feel comfortable and shared stories about arsenal players who had visited. You don’t come across people like her in the hospitality industry anymore. Jo shares her positive energy with every person who steps into the Tollington. They are extremely lucky to have her on board!

We were there and it was fantastic. The beers were delicious. You can choose between 6-7 beers (not sure). The staff were super nice. We only drink beers but there were many people who ordered food or drink something else. The atmosfere of this pub was incredible.

From the top to the bottom the tollington is a home from home! Jo and mona lovely server's fun and entertaining! The managers Anna and Steve are such lovely welcoming people and to top it off they even serve Thai food! I don't live locally but felt like I grew up there! Great atmosphere, great people and a pukka pint of guiness!

Whilst in London from Devon for the weekend to see the Arsenal match, we soon found and frequented this great place. Thank you to Anna and the staff we met for making us feel so very welcome, so much so, I have a whole page on my banking app of 'The Tollington Arms ' ha. Anyway great selection of all drinks, staff couldn 't do enough for you, and even though they had only just met us soon remembered our 'usual '. Regrettably because of other plans we never ate the food, but it looked and smelt delicious and is defo a reason for us to return, just to try it. Pre and post match was great fun you need to show match tickets to get in though pre match so be aware of that. See you soon... our new home from home local The Tolly! From Steve and Rich in Devon.
