Cannot review the pizzas from another kitchen or cocktails although would come back to try one but this is a buzzy pub with reasonable prices for wine and nonalcoholic spritz.nCan get rather busy in the garden on the weekend and summer day with locals so come early if you want a table outside.
 ArsenalnnThe Bank of Friendship is located at the bottom of Blackstock Road, close to Arsenal’s old iconic stadium in Highbury North London. The nearest Tube is Arsenal.nnThis pub was originally built at the tail-end of the 19th century, then rebuilt for Courage in the 1930’s.nnThis is a traditional decorated two bar pub which has an oldschool charm about it. The bar on the right is long and narrow with the servery located on the left and an elongated buttoned banquette to the right. There is a nice period fireplace and proper red pub carpet. The bar on the left is an almost mirror image of the other bar. The servery is centrally located, it has an original Courage back bar with a backlit sign, a rare find. One standout feature of this pub is the Liam Brady signed football kit, Liam Brady was a childhood hero of mine. At the back of the pub is a fantastic beergarden with lots of benches and huts.nnThe beer line up was excellent and offers a broad range of big name beers, local London brews and three cask ales. I decided on a Pillars Pilsner, my pint was great, price point was a tad above average at £6.20. The food option is @yardsalepizza who deliver your order to the pub.nnI arrived at 3pm on a warm Monday afternoon in October. I was the first in the door and had a good mooch around the pub. The service was lovely, I was served by a friendly member of the team who was welcoming and courteous. I decided to plot up in the beer garden and reminisced about times spent here over the years. Back in the day my Dad took me here on the way to see The Arsenal, I have followed this tradition and visited many times with my Son.nnI must admit, I do have a soft spot for the @bof_n5 , not only is it an outstanding local pub, there are family ties stretching back to the 1970’s. This pub regularly appears in @timeoutlondon Top 50 London pubs, and rightly so. This Independent pub is a must visit.nn 7th October 2024nnMore London Pub info @londonpubmap
Great neighborhood spot with a nice selection of beers on tap and cask.
The pub is a nice enough place background music very pleasant. However customer service atrocious, unwelcoming and inhospitable. I order a pint of Guinness no communication or even a Hello.nThe Guinness was served badly and sloppy.nIf the barman doesn’t want to do the job why is he there. I’ve been looking forward to going into this pub for a very long time. I was extremely disappointed.
The bank of friendship is an amazing pub! Cozy inside and buzzing in the large outside smoking area. They take cash and card, bartenders are always friendly and also have yard sale pizza! This pub is a go to for me and my friends after getting off work, definitely recommend !
