THE
CANONBURY
DRINKS MENU
Established since the early 1700’s, the historic Canonbury Tavern is a proud feature of
Canonbury Place, serving an impressive array of real ale, craft beer, autumnal cocktails and more.
In 1846 The Canonbury Tavern was demolished and rebuilt on the same land. In the early
20th century the top floor was removed following a fire and never replaced. This is why the
wonderful staircase leads to nowhere.
George Orwell, who lived in Canonbury Square, wrote part of 1984 whilst sitting under the
tree in the garden in the 1940’s.
In 2009, after several years of closure, the pub was close to being turned into residential
accommodation before Lord Northampton decided that the building should remain a pub,
as it has done for almost 300 years. Since its renovation in 2015 it has become a haven of
Islington. Attracting everything from intimate
Sunday roast gatherings to grand wedding parties there is a little something for everyone.
OUR COMPANY
We became part of Young’s in 2015, joining a company that takes pride in
delighting their customers with using fresh seasonal produce and people
working for them who have pride in Young’s culture and passion for the work
they do.
Young’s since starting out in 1831 now own more than 200 pubs and hotels in
the heart of local communities in London and the South of England, from
poetic pubs steeped in history to secret underground cocktail bars the
character and individuality of each of their premises gives them all a unique
feel.
Brewing their own beer from their brewery in Wandsworth, Young’s has
become famous for their Young’s Original ale and Young’s Special ale, so
become a part of history and grab a pint today!
OUR SPACES
Our bar area is the perfect space for cosy drinks by the fire with friends and is
where our quiz takes place every Sunday evening. Should you prefer full table
service, then our restaurant is ideal for brunch, lunch or dinner with warm fire to cosy on up to and is also available for you to hire for any get together.

Christening or wake, the Canonbury has a number of bookable spots for private hire. Martyn and the team look forward to welcoming you soon!
Soak up the rays on the warmer days in our beer garden. Our Burger Shack is
open from lunch through to supper serving a variety of flavour-packed burgers,
fries and salads. Best enjoyed with a chilled glass of wine, a bottle of beer or one of our delicious soft drinks!

OUR RECOMMENDED VODKAS
Sipsmith
Subtle but rounded sweet vanilla with a hint of biscuit
on the nose. Soft, smooth, creamy mouthful, delivering
a rounded, warming brightness. Deliciously delicate
vanilla and biscuit sweet finish.
Perfect serve: Fever-Tree Indian tonic and fresh lemon
Grey Goose
Clear, fresh with an elegant floral aroma, accented by a
subtle citrus note. Initially soft with a gentle sweetness
that gradually envelops the mouth - smooth and
rounded texture with a hint of almond. Fresh and
bright throughout with a long, satisfying finish.
Perfect serve: Elderflower, fresh lime and soda
Zubrowska
Lots of light grass aromas on the nose with a slight
earthy note coming through near the end. Rather a raw
beginning on the palate but mellows into a fresh, creamy
flavour of grass and vanilla with a slight kick of spice.
Becomes rather soft at the end.
Perfect serve: Ginger ale and fresh lime

OUR RECOMMENDED RUMS
Duppy Share A big, bold, 3 year old, 100% pot still Jamaican rum, packed full of tropical fruit flavours up front is followed by a smooth 5 year old Barbadian rum giving a warm buttery finish.
Perfect serve: Orange or pineapple and fresh lime
Kraken Blended with 14 spices and aged in oak casks for at least two years. It has a dark chocolate sweetness, and flavours of vanilla, cinnamon, clove, ginger and orange. Warming, rich, smooth and rounded.
Perfect serve: Fever-Tree Ginger Beer and fresh lime
Havana 3 A light, straw colour that reveals it’s age: every single drop has aged for a minimum of three years. The nose is a full bouquet of a smooth aromas, with hints of oak, molasses and sugar cane. The taste is well-balanced & complex: a sweet, mild, fruity flavour with a light hint of citrus.
Perfect serve: Fresh mint, lime and soda
