Pubs named after early twentieth century female social campaigners are few and far between, so the retitling of this one certainly makes it stand out from the crowd. We're not sure if the lady in question was much of a frequenter of alehouses in her day - we're pretty certain she wasn't - but next time we're around Archway we'll stop by this one, raise in a glass in her memory and report back on what the pub offers.

Just re-discovered this place after previously visiting it at the Settle Inn. Lunch was really excellent, beats lots of the Highgate places hands down and the chef is really lovely which makes it even more special. Wide variety of dishes - Tibetna, Thai, Nepali, Mongolian and more standard pub fare but all excellent quality and will be going back for Friday lunch on regular basis to exorcise the Archway horrors!

Excellent pub with good selection or beers and real ales. Friendly and welcoming staff. The kitchen is now run by a Tibetan chef who cooks some wonderful Tibetan dishes but also many fantastic western fare. You must also try his Sunday roast which is fantastic. In short a great pub that gets better by the day, give it a try
