56 Upper Street, Barnsbury, London, N1 0NY (View on Google Map)

In Jan 2019, Young's acquired Redcomb and placed all their pubs into their managed estate. It was hoped that this would hopefully improve the cask beer range at this pub but a visit in Nov 2019 confirmed no real ale as it seems that Young's have sold on the lease they acquired - now trades as Flight Club (with uncovered Barclay Perkins & Co fascia), an operation who currently have 3 other locations across London. USP is to hire out darts oches for groups.

Formerly Alpahabet, Harvey Floorbangers, Three Wheatsheafs, Solomon Grundys, Walkabout. It then closed, boarded up and was occupied by squatters. Re-opened as keg Rattlesnake 2012. Then Cabana, a Brazilian restaurant. Then Redcomb became the operator.
