The Old Crown, Public House on Highgate Hill
The Old Crown at 90 Highgate Hill, is a pub with B&B and dining facilities that has been serving beer to the locals of Highgate for 200 years.
With bags of outside space (front and rear) and plenty of room inside, you'll find plenty to keep you entertained including live music, film nights, BBQs, pool and football tables...
We also offera broad selection of tasty meals and bar snacks. And ofcourse, our legendary Karl Marx tea rooms located inside the pub and just a few minutes walk from Highgate's famous cemetery in which he is interred. In fact, it was in this very pub where on 14th March 1883, that the very same political philosopher allegedly choked on a red sauce smothered hot dog and drew his last breath...or so local legend has it.
Some say, that his ghost still haunts the Old Crown whispering the words of his two most notable works, The Communist Manifesto (1848) and Das Capital (1867-94)...and that those discussing the materialist conception of history often feel an inexplicable chill of paranormal origin.
To honour Karl, we have also named our house beer after him, The Karl Marx Beer, available at the class struggle friendly price of just £3 per pint.
