"Very unfriendly to our baby and dog, made to feel a nuisance, it’s a shame as we thought they were a friendly local. We are very disappointed."

It's a bit worrying when you walk into a pub for lunch and the staff kind of ignore you. The manager could see we were waiting and came over and took us to a couple of reserved tables. He seemed to want us to sit next to another couple, with about a foot between the tables. We didn't and sat at the table next to that. It wasn't busy for a sunday and it was odd that he did that but whatever. Logistics? Anyway nice young woman came and took our drinks orders and was very pleasant if a bit flustered. Ordered starters and the porchetta. It's a lovely Victorian pub and we had a nice natter before the padron peppers and bao crispy beef turned up. Both were really nice, and well cooked. Then things...
Visited last night with a friend. , I ordered the vegan burger which I was told was made from mushroom and beetroot, neither which I could taste . My friend ordered the stake which he said as stake goes was nice . The massive disappointment was the chips that both meals came with . They were frozen standard chips that one could get in a local cafe ,put on the plate . Sorry but at the price we paid and the standard and reputation of the Queens I would have expected hand cut chips as you get most of the pubs in crouch end and other good pubs that do food . The only pub I would expect chips of this kind would be Wetherspoons , and if I am honest the chips in the Mosey in Muswell Hill Wetherspoo...
We were 3 friends who had one main course. Each one was different. The steak burger was one of the tastiest burgers I have eaten for some time. The chips skin on were good. My wife had haddock fishcake which she loved. However, it could have done with a side of green vegetables. The chicken milanese was also enjoyed. The Adnams broadside bitter was very good.One of us had Estrella lager. So we drank 1 and half pints each. Plus a very large glass of red wine. The bill with service was £86. The service was good, attentive and friendly. The pub itself dates for early 1900s and is rather attractive great stained glass..
The Queens' Sunday menu had been recommended to me. I checked the menu: it said the sirloin of beef is served pink. It wasn't; it was brown. More to the point, it was too tough to eat (and I've got all my teeth! and fairly tasteless. The carrots were OK. The green veg was somewhat overcooked. Since I was lunching with someone I don't know that well, I let it be. She ate maybe half of her porchetta. However, I was surprised that my uneaten meal was removed without a query about why it was practically untouched. The coffee was good. Réservez une table maintenant
12.5% service charge automatically added to the bill staff are little off hand as they don’t need to try in order to receive a tip. Tips should be discretionary and staff should ‘earn’ them. Food ok but nothing special pasta slightly under cooked and the steak burger was made with onions which overshadowed the flavour of everything else. We could hear the kitchen staff from our table who were swearing at one another. The best part was the building itself lovely. We’ll be giving this one a miss.
Me and my husband came into the Queens to grab a bite of dinner. The staff were so welcoming and friendly and the food was AMAZING! My husband had the Fillet steak sandwich and I had the crab and king prawn linguine, both exceeded our expectations. Also, a great selection of drinks for drinkers and non-drinkers alike. The real star of the show was definitely the staff though. Well done Queens crew, 5*
Another fantastic visit to this exceptional pub! Food, staff and service always outstanding. Had Sunday roast here yesterday and cooked to perfection. We are not local to the area and regularly travel to visit this pub. We have never had a bad moment in this pub and the staff are excellent, especially Ferris, who looked after us above and beyond.
So friendly , until I told them I only had cash. I am olds school). their whole attitude changed , and the ‘ manager’, even turned her face away from me mid conversation. It put a damper on the evening. Plus the beef was really fatty, and cold too. Wouldn’t bother Réservez une table maintenant
