Homeboy Bar

Warm, relaxed, and full of character, this Islington bar brings Irish hospitality into a cocktail setting without losing its easygoing charm. The drinks list gives plenty of attention to Irish whiskey, but the appeal goes beyond the cocktails to include a proper pint of Guinness and genuinely welcoming service. Music, conversation, and a lived in feel make it somewhere that works as well for a casual round as it does for a longer night out. What makes it worth visiting is the balance it strikes so well: polished enough to feel special, but friendly enough to feel like your local.
