The rooms worth crossing London for: the interiors CAMRA lists, the last galleried coaching inn, the pubs where something documented happened, and the ones that do one thing better than anyone. Filter by kind, or by what's open now.
A 1901 pub front of six-sided pink granite columns and etched glass, with a Tamil restaurant in the other half.
Historic interior
Built in 1900-01 by Wylson & Long, probably for James Kirk, in brown glazed brick and buff terracotta, curving round the corner into Pentonville Road. The ground floor on Caledonian Road is almost certainly the original pub front of 1901: six-sided pink-granite columns, glazed wooden screens, segmental-arched doors and etched glass. Inside is a single space divided by glazed wooden screens. It took the conservation prize in CAMRA's National Pub Design Awards in 2016.
The name is from the haunches of venison that used to hang in the bar for Scottish traders down in London.
The Stores half, on the left, is now a Tamil restaurant run by the people behind two other Tamil pubs in Islington, and the pub is the other half; a third corner takes about fifteen if you hire it. Four handpumps, often Wantsum beers and a house bitter of theirs.
