Previously reported as a restaurant (2016), confirmed in Dec 18 as now open again after a closure, reverting to a pub, called ISLINGTON SPORTS BAR which briefly sold real ale.

A pub that has been through a number of changes since the 1990s, from the Prince of Wales, to a Hobgoblin, the Study, and then the Herbert Chapman before being renamed again in 2013 as Filthy's then run by the small Hathor Inns pubco, who had other Filthy's pubs in Belfast and Nottingham.

Food includes all day breakfast, burgers, hot dogs, 1/4 chicken, ribs, steak, vegan pasta, mac and cheese.

Information for this venue is provided by the North London Branch of CAMRA
