Cask Ale not available
Open
Operator: Independent

Website

Real ale was not available in October 2025 and the barmaid says they no longer sell it.

The operators also run The Englefield in N1. The food hours are not shown on their website and are based on google October 2025.

Renamed from the Perseverance in 2012 and with it then came the introduction of real ale. Why The Hunter S? per their website; "Hunter S Thompson knew good food and drink and that excess (here and there in our case…) makes for the good life. We love Hunter's idiosyncratic style and have decorated the pub with his signature oversized taxidermy, risqué artwork (ahem…) and a uniquely crafted copper ceiling. We think the great man would definitely approve and would stick around for at least a few drinks."
