The Enterprise

The decor and vibe here are great. The inside is vibrant and cozy, and there’s a patio out back to stay cool on summer nights (the inside was quite hot). The food menu was already shut down for the night, so I can’t speak on that. The cocktails seemed quite overpriced for a pub, but maybe that’s just how it is these days? (11 pounds per cocktail.) That being said, they were delicious. HOWEVER I have to warn you against the shooters - they were disgusting. Mine (bloody villager) tasted like raw egg yolk and I nearly barfed (no I was not drunk) and my friend’s (brain hemorrhage) had weird separated lumpy textures. The ales were fair price and overall I really enjoyed my time there and plan to return. The other thing you should know is that their opening hours listed here are a farce. Google Maps said they’re open til midnight on weekdays, but last call was 11pm/23:00 and they asked everyone to finish their drinks by 11:10 and get out. If you have sensory or noise sensitivity or autism, note that they announce last call with a loud bell twice - a 15 minute warning at 10:45 and again at 11.

Great pub, great food, great staff. Tucked away on a quiet street, The Enterprise is a great place to meet friends and have a pint. Good selection of lagers and ales, cocktails and spirits. The atmosphere is very relaxed and there is a beautiful outdoor seating area. Highly recommended if you're in the Holborn area, as it is much nicer and quieter than the pubs on the main streets.

Ordered a beef curry... Didn't expect this!!! Full Tali style dish, bursting with flavour, amazingly tender, spicy beef curry, rice topped with crispy and spring onion, cauliflower curry, dal, potato & veg dish, a super fresh salad with baby lamb lettuce, some kind of dip and a poppadom! everything was simply delicious, very impressed, definitely recommend! Nice pub, pleasant and interesting decor, small selection of beers but you'll find something you like!

I was planning to visit the Dolphin Tavern opposite but apparently it’s closed at the weekend, so I popped in here. Pleasantly surprised! Really nice Victorian pub; some retained features and other aspects more contemporary. A lovely, brightly painted yard out back. Very welcoming, friendly staff - I noticed how patient and accommodating they were with foreign tourists. Only two of the four cask ales on, otherwise I would rate it as five stars. Nevertheless, recommended.
