Compton Arms looks after its beer

31.03.09
 
Compton Arms

Traditional: Compton Arms

Look here too

For a long time, we've had the impression that the Compton Arms likes to think is somewhere out in the wilds of Surrey or Sussex and come to that, the locals seem to, too. But that's OK with us.

The Compton certainly does look after its beer really well, with an extensive and ever-changing range of bitters on the hand pumps ready for your delectation. But you need to get in early, it is a tiny place that fills up very, very easily, although the street outside and the compact beer garden at the back do help to cope with the overflow.

To complement the excellent beer, there's decent traditional pub grub - with Sunday roasts a speciality. With friendly service and a broad mix of punters, The Compton Arms offers the sort of traditional pub atmosphere you won't find on the nearby Upper Street and that's probably why it's so popular.

NEAREST STATION: Highbury and Islington station
FEATURES: real ale - regular guest beers, outdoor seating, quiz night Sunday, Sky TV (small screens)
