The Bald Faced Stag (East Finchley - London)

The Bald Faced Stag

Where has this gastro pub gone? Only about an eighth of it is still a pub apparently - the rest is a platofmr restaurant - laid bare and sorry at the back of this establishment. The selection of drinks however is quite good and the vibe is relaxed but up-beat with a road-side garden outside and close access to the tube if you are willign to navigate the short wlak up the hill in East Finshley. Prices are a little steep and there is not really enough seating to go around.

Overall the place has been done over to be a respectable dining venue- more than a bar really and for that it gets slapped with a 6/10. I like that they serve bowls of whitebait alongside olives and nuts though!
