The B&G should be for music, not food.

When I frequented the Bull & Gate in Kentish Town it was a music venue, pool table in the front bar from memory and very loud music of varying quality in the back.
Starbucks or something now I believe. There was an article on it's closure in a weekend newspaper at the time, Guardian perhaps, which brought it to my attention. Ash then confirmed.
I had a mate in band who would sometimes play there so we would be in the front row*.

Town & Country Club. 20+ years since it was that.

My local for about 2 years on Green Lanes was as minging a pub as one could get, the stick of one’s shoe to the floor as one wobbled to the jacks and absolutely f**k all food to speak of.
Went back there about 2 seasons ago before a game and people were sharing bottles of wine and the bloke behind the bar enquired as to whether I wanted chorizo or blue cheese on my burger.
Very decent matchday pub now I should say.
"...a heavenly selection of artisan British cheeses and cured meats."
Might sink 4 or 5 pints though :lager:

I was going straight down the line with bangers and mash.
Having told him a firm No to his suggestion of extras he then hit me with a "how would you like the burger cooked". f**k me, only wanted some soakage.
