  “Very quiet bar at the time I visited, from a personal perspective, the bar selection wasn't to my taste but there was a good selection of beers and lagers.”

  “Went here with my grandson who had heard about the food provided by Bana's Grill. Absolutely delicious jerk chicken and barbecue menu. Seating not great (wooden benches) but atmosphere was lively. Go for the food if nothing else. You'll be pleasantly surprised.”

  “Fun and young pub with outdoor area. Suitable for small or large groups of people. Nice staff. If you want to watch a game that is a good place.”

  “Service fantastic, great team behind the bar. Nice choice of beer, noticeably clean taps too. And the atmosphere was buzzing, clientele was trendy, mixed ages and party vibe. Highly recommend if you live near or far.”

  “Great pub. Called to check they had the T20 World Cup on which they did. Proper boozer with warm service, friendly locals, and a £5.50 pint of Guinness. Magic FM on the speakers. Recommend.”

  “🚇 Dalston Kingsland 🍺 £5.50 Amstel ❤️ One of the best pubs in London. . I have visited The Army & Navy a few times over the years, usually on my way to see The Arsenal. My last visit was on St Patrick’s Day back in March this year. Getting here is easy, Dalston Kingsland station is a just five minute walk away. . This pub was built in the 1930’s by AE Sewell who was Truman Breweries principal architect. The pub retains many original features, is Grade II listed and is designed in a Neo Georgian style. . The decor oozes oldschool charm and the environment is welcoming and comfortable. There is a proper pub carpet, a good size bar, velour banquette bench seating, a dart board and for good measure, throw in a few TV’s showing live sport. One of the best features of this pub is the massive beer garden. There are loads of covered booths, TV’s showing live sport and also a new addition is the outdoor bar. . The beer selection is straight up reasonably priced keg options, there are a few craft beers available and the Guinness is well celebrated. The pub has recently teamed up with pizza gurus @yardsalepizza , so now you can have pizza delivered to the pub. . The atmosphere here is always warm and friendly, the pub attracts a broad crowd from all walks of life rather than just one demographic. This is down to Jimmy the Guv’nor who has been at the helm for the past 26 years and looks after his punters one and all. Jimmy gave me a tour of the pub and was telling me about how much work had gone in to the beer garden, which looks great. . The Army & Navy is one of my favourite pubs in London as it ticks so many boxes. There is the architectural heritage, old school decor, reasonably priced beer, a superb beer garden, welcoming atmosphere and the nicest Guv’nor you’ll ever meet. If you’ve not visited yet and want to experience how a pub should be, then put The Army & Navy at the top of your must visit pub list. . ℹ️ Info correct on visiting 17.03.23”
