The Three Crowns - Carta

Good place, good food, good value. Enjoyed lunch there. Nice to be able to see the kitchen from the restaurant.

Attentive but not overbearing staff. Exceptionally high quality food. Nice atmosphere. Good choice on the menu.

When booking I found all the pubs in Islington to be fully booked. The 3 crowns can up in my search so I booked it with slight trepidation. I needn't have worried as the food and service were excellent. Ver carta

It's a pub, with the bar open to a back room with tables in, yet the prices are rather elevated for what it is. And the service charge! Oh come on, you're a pub, not a restaurant. Stop gouging your customers for an extra 12.5% and let use decide on a tip.

Food was pretty good, lacked seasoning but not bad for the price. Service was some of the worst experienced living in London. Had to ask for more to drink at a PUB. Server seemed more interested in other things. Had to find someone to ask for the bill. Probably a better place for Sunday Lunch.

I came with my partner for a pre-Barbican Cinema meal. Staff made sure that we had been served in good time for our film. Lee Urch's food was delicious, particularly the homemade pate and terrine and a warming, fragrant lamb stew. A lovely relaxed atmosphere. Lively, but not too noisy for a chat. Friendly, efficient service. I'll be back! Ver carta

The service was outstanding, I am wheat and dairy intolerant and the waiter was incredibly helpful, his dish recommendations also went down very well with my less awkward dining companions. The cod was wonderful, as were the super-crispy chips and elderflower sorbet

Four of us met for lunch and we had varieties of liver, pork and haddock; all well cooked and served fresh within a reasonable time. Very pleasant ambiance, although building works across the road just now did leave something to be desired. No opportunity to eat outside, but this is right in the centre of a busy area, so not exactly a surprise. We enjoyed our meal and were not harassed to leave, which is another plus.

I've been here four or five times now and have only positive things to say. The exterior speaks to this location's history as a local boozer, but inside, you'd be forgiven for not noticing that there is a lively bar at one end of the long dining room (handily separable by a curtain if the drinkers get too boisterous. I took my parents visiting London here the night they arrived. The service is attentive and friendly. The menu is genuinely interesting but not annoyingly avant garde. The open kitchen subtly suggests their (deserved pride in the quality of the cooking. Crab and avocado starter, crab soup with rouille (so crabby! and fresh beet salad started us off with confident and delicious f... Ver carta
