The Drapers Arms (Islington)

• The wine selection is large and they have a really romantic bit of outdoor space (fairy lights
• ) Only 'complaint' was that it was a endeavour worthy of a medal to get the bill
• Hidden away in the depths of Islington is this amazing British pub
• Opposed to the usual dark and dingy interiors this pub keeps a lot of typical British elements but is much fresher
• I would say everything is always delicious if our meal was anything to go by
• I had the fish which was wonderfully fresh
• Subtle in flavour with a wonderful citrus sauce
• As were the rilletes with game terrine
• The three of us in the corner went for the whole roast chicken which came with roasted potatoes
• The chicken was nicely roasted as well as the vegetables
• The portion was really big and generous
• As there were quite a few tables with small children
• Went there for a roast lunch with big generous plates of tender meats accompanied by rich
• The range of starters were sensational the deep fried quail sells out quickly and so you better go there early and get it because it's not to be missed
• Definitely one of the best places for a roast in London
• Croquettes to begin with were a delight although whitebait were rather average
• Steak tartare was executed well
• The main event (as it should be with a roast) was the fore rib to share between 2 3
• Could have been slightly rarer nonetheless it was a good piece of cow
• The staff member who served us was rude and we were made to feel like we were inconveniencing him
• He had an air of someone who was slightly bored with the plethora of hipsters that populate almost every establishment these days so we felt completely welcome and comfortable
