Marquess Tavern - Speisekarte

with so many good gastropubs in the neighbourhood, jon and I do not visit as often as we want. the marquess tavern is not more than 15 minutes walk from our apartment, but because it is located on the other side of the upper street of the canonbury sid.

Cosy pub, decent burger good chips nice ales. Worth a repeat visit but not going to set your world on fire. Have heard good reviews of platters and shared meat dishes, will give a try to other places 1st. Duke of Cambridge is a better gastro pub nr angel

As is customary for a Sunday, we thought it best to go for roasts and pints. Our pub of choice was The Alwyne. Alas, it was not to be. Given we booked a table of 15, we were disturbed to find they had gone to no effort whatsoever to accomodate us, placing

Went for Sunday lunch. Nice place, friendly staff and a pleasant relaxed vibe. Main course (rack of lamb) was excellent, the rest okay. Wine was a bit too warm. Our muttley was well looked after by our waitress and got a bowl of water. I'd happily go back.

after two weeks in asia I was desperate for a good pub to eat. I know that some of them think I'm crazy after all British foods have such a bad call, right? wrong! They have listened to many Americans and we all know where this leads!. my very own American had recommended the marquess tavern in canonbury as place with amazing eating. I was pretty skeptical, but as soon as we went into the door and checked out the menu, I couldn't believe I had never been before. seafood, steaks, sideplenty, it's as if the mother ship called me home. if they didn't know, I'm obsessed with sauces. to me the queen of...read more

there are better places to spend their money. will not come back. Usually they love this pub and how they come here as it is local, but had a particularly miserable blonde girl behind the bar that stabbed on me when I asked about Cheesy chips. not really quite sure how to put a cheese on an order of chips is so difficult and why they don't want to take my money for a simple question, especially since it is in the usually empty here. but as the miserable girl said, we do not dinge for customers taken point. I think you'll come back here soon. their bad attitude and their lack of basic customer service has turned me off this place.

no no one here for birthday or event!. I have some problems with this place. the first is that it used to be fantastic independent local pub, great eating and a cute interieur. it was then bought by a chain, they made the inner super cheesy, generally soulless, and then the eating gott terrible. it's so sad to see a place go so far. it's such a waste of space in a good neighbourship. I was shocked when my friend had booked it for her birthday party, but she said she just picked it up because it was a good place. she booked on Sunday, 2 weeks before the place 14 people and called a week before and 2 days before the visit. the day of the party...read more

Worst Service Ever. I went twice for birthdays with groups of 12 to 15 people. The food was average, especially since they removed the lamb chops from their already limited menu (for better quality and wider choice in the neighbourhood go to the house When it came to paying they systematically tried to charge us 2 or 3 drinks that either nobody ordered or that were already paid for The service is actually the worst I've ever seen in London!! Being French, I couldn't help but notice that the French managers taught all the clichés to their staff: they are arrogant, unhelpful, rude, slow, you name it they have it. One of the 2 waitresses that was there on Sunday was just...read more

Marquess Tavern is a cozy local pub located on Canonbury Street in Islington. The main focal point of the pub is the central bar, and circling the bar are tables where customers can sit and enjoy a drink or have a bite to eat. Marquess Tavern won the Time Out Gastro Pub of the Year award in 2006, however the current layout of the pub (where there is no dedicated separate dining area) suggests that Marquess Taverns focus has shifted from gastropub to boozer. We tried the quail wrapped in smoked bacon 7.25) with beetroot and orange. It was a pleasant dish with the quail being tasty and moist. But there was no caramelisation on the quail and it needed more browning on the skin for...read more
