When I first started working in N1 a couple of years ago, I did some exploring. I wanted to find some special places where I could feel at home and relax at lunchtime. The Scolt Head is my favourite pub around here. Not that I'm a great lunchtime drinker or anything!
The Scolt Head is a real pub and is definitely a pub rather than a bar. It doesn't feel like a chain and has a settee to collapse on, a real fire in the winter and a lovely sun trap of a garden for the summer. Bliss.
The menu changes regularly and is interesting and very high quality. It's gastro pub food but the prices aren't crazy. If you're into football they show all the big games and have a room you can hire. Regular live music and a weekly quiz, there is something for everyone.
I love the original art work including a painting of Scolt Head in Norfolk, a brilliant bulldog and ... some tractors!
If you're lucky there may be real dogs visiting.
