It's now re-opened as the 'Real Music Club' and a lot of money has obviously been spent on the refurb. It's unrecognisable as the old Bull & Butcher from the inside. The front bar is bright and modern. The large room at the back has been turned into a live music venue that puts most in Camden to shame - it has a big stage and a new PA and lighting rig. Very good sound, and they are now getting some well known cover and tribute bands in, as well as new up and coming bands.

It's piss poor for the real ale fan though. A single hand pump has recently been installed for Green King IPA. I thought things were looking up when I noticed this a few weeks ago, but it's never been working since it was installed and when I asked a barmaid she said they were still waiting for some beer to be delivered for it....

This is an OK pub, but there are a few crazies that drink here and they put me off a little. The staff are friendly enough and the bouncer… Well he’s a bouncer!

There are 2 separate bars, one of which has been closed for a while for renovation, along with a big room at the back that has a pool table in it and is where the bands play. There is also some covered seating and a crepe van at the front of the pub on the high road.

The dart board and Sky Sports top off what would be a great pub if it wasn’t for the care in the community crew.

Great new venue for live music with recent gigs including Wishbone Ash and the tribute band Fleetwoood Bac.

Having lived in Whetstone/Totteridge since I was a child and never visiting this pub, my mum and I had lunch here today and were pleasantly surprised.

It has been taken over in the last six months by new owners and the food is very good. Everything is home cooked, is well priced and the food is good quality with an interesting menu.

It is really lovely to see that they do proper homemade chips not the frozen packet rubbish you get everywhere!

They are trying to turn this pub around and will succeed if all the locals go and try it! They also have live music every weekend.

We shall defintely be going back!!!

interesting to note that my previous comments were removed at the same time two bad ones were placed about the Griffin
Looks like a little tit for tat
