The kitchen

Thai through the week, roasts at the weekend

Thai food is served Monday to Friday from 4pm, with fresh, generous plates from the kitchen. Saturdays bring no-fuss pub food, while Sundays are set aside for traditional roasts and hearty pub dishes. There is also a full bar with wine, cocktails, rotating taps and low- and no-alcohol options.

The bar

A proper local near the Emirates

The Woodbine has the feel of a North London Irish pub, with reclaimed wood board walls, local ales and a strong line-up behind the bar. Four screens show major sports, with sound on for key games, making matchdays especially busy. Tuesday is quiz night from 7pm, Wednesday brings a wine offer, and Sunday evenings feature live music.
