Don’t be deceived by the cool name and welcoming décor |
Head out of the station alongside Woodside Park Road and take a right at the t-junction… you will see Autumn House across the Road before the massive Wetherspoons. There were large, open windows on the way in and the initial look and feel was quite nice. However, the deeper you plummet into the pub, the grottier it gets! The carpets were awful, the tables sticky and most of the chairs on the garden terrace only had 3 legs!
Even the potential at this time of day for an “All Day Breakfast at just £1.99” was not quite enough to make us stay longer than our pints-worth. It wasn’t bad, in fact we scored it fairly well but the fact that we wished we were in the nearby Wetherspoons was pretty damning. We moved on in pursuit of originality, quality and excellence at West Finchley...
