the sign of the Charles Lamb Pub 'The real appeal of this venue is its easy going pace, so close to the mania of Upper Street' - Karina Mantavia,The Guardian, 20th May 2006
the regen'ts canal at Islinton tunnel 'Hidden amongst swathes of six-figure Islington houses - which makes the cheap prices, sound food, decent beers and unpretentious atmosphere all the more remarkable.' - Charles Campion, The Evening Standard, 27th April 2006
'This gorgeous, little-known corner pub is well worth a trip across London. Tucked away... on a noiseless sidestreet, the Charles Lamb feels like it has been plucked from a village green in Somerset, and indeed the inspiration for its food and drink is noticeably bucolic.' Time Out Eating & Drinking Guide 2007 Critics' Choice

'Super-friendly Islington pub... I can't remember being so warmly treated... hospitality like this is rare indeed' - Tom Lamont, Time Out, 14th June 2006
