Pig and Butcher
British
House sourdough with beef dripping and Jersey butter for a pound a head is the kind of opening move that sets the tone immediately. This Islington gastropub has a dark wooden floor, chunky tables, and mismatched chairs giving it a lived-in feel despite few original Victorian bones surviving. The beer list gets taken as seriously as the food, and the crowd skews toward locals who've figured out they can afford to eat here regularly.
