I have started to go there pre or post an Arsenal home game. Good atmosphere and great staff. It must be tough when you go from empty to packed out within a few minutes of the final whistle but that doesn’t seem to alter the good mood of the staff. I always feel welcome.
If you want to eat in the restaurant section on a match day I recommend booking early.
The best chicken roast I have had in London! Credit to the chef. Excellent service from the staff too
The Duchess of Kent is a great local pub. It has been recently renovated and has sophisticated, classy look. This place is especially popular with arsenal fans, and gets really packed on a match days, so you should avoid it on those days unless you're there to celebrate.
They have a fairly varied menu with a pretty standard gastro pub selection. There are some good sharing dishes and they always have Sunday roasts. It's always good for a quick bite to eat with friends and for drinks on the weekend.
For a pub I felt that their prices were pretty high, but overall I enjoy coming here, there is a nice atmosphere and good service.
A favourite for the more classy Arsenal supporter before a game, but in its everyday format this is a lovely little hidden gem in Islington. Great for families and to cuddle up on the lounge with a drink in the winter. The decor is homely, the staff extremely friendly, and the Sunday roast a reasonably priced success. All in all, the perfect local!
Love the duchess! We were just here for a booking of 15 for the rugby World Cup and had great service! The staff are lovely, the food is yum and the drinks come fast! Thanks so much!
Came for a few drinks. The pub’s located in a very nice area and the atmosphere is really cozy. Staff was very welcoming. Drinks were served up to the standard and the food is simply finger licking. I had squash arancini and mac n’ cheese and it was sooo good. They’re also showing football which is always plus points. Overall a great experience and I’ll be definitely coming back.
The Duchess of Kent. A fine late Georgian corner pub. Brilliant service from the staff and great beer from cask and keg. A fine place to visit.
I went for pie night and ate all the pies!!! Jk I just had the fish pie but it was DIVINE. Nice cosy pub right by the station - which was only after Google Maps told us to walk 20 minutes in the opposite direction to a pub of the same name that no longer exists.
Its a lovely local pub where you can eat great food and watch the football, if you want. Really nice place I would highly recommmend
The food was amazing. The staff are kind and friendly. We had to wait a little longer than we would have liked, but it was match day!
A lovely and relaxed setting for a leisurely dinner (Sunday roast). The staff were friendly, the food was hugely generous and very tasty. Good selection of drinks.
Lovely pub close to Highbury.
Nice selection of beers and cyder and food.
We been on Sunday then we tried the Sunday roast and was very good.
Staff was great and a very good atmosphere.
Really recommend!

Great evening in this cozy pub! Very good food and kind service. We will come back !
Lovely pub with decent drink selection. The real selling point is the large outdoor area which gets the sun. We can always gets a table and the atmosphere is always nice and chilled. Friendly and welcoming staff too. Great pub all around.
