Food Scene
The best food in Crouch End. Caribbean, Latin American, South Asian food all in one. They've got a different specials board every day. Also does a great breakfast & brunch (but you'll have to book on weekends).

The Haringay Arms

This pub is a bit louder than the others but it's nice & has a good selection of beers and wine. It's open a little later than the others as well - about midnight, maybe later on weekends. They have live comedy downstairs on Thursday, Saturday and Sunday - which is definitely recommended.

This is my favourite pub around the area - it's a taproom type deal, with a revolving selection of beer on a blackboard. It ain't cheap but by gum it tastes good.
