"I've been here four or five times now and have only positive things to say. The exterior speaks to this location's history as a local boozer, but inside, you'd be forgiven for not noticing that there is a lively bar at one end of the long dining room (handily separable by a curtain if the drinkers get too boisterous. I took my parents visiting London here the night they arrived. The service is attentive and friendly. The menu is genuinely interesting but not annoyingly avant garde. The open kitchen subtly suggests their (deserved pride in the quality of the cooking. Crab and avocado starter, crab soup with rouille (so crabby! and fresh beet salad started us off with confident and delicious flavours. For mains, we had in season grouse with classical fixings and a special of Bavette, simply prepared with horseradish sauce and some cress. Portions are just right. Couldn't have been happier. I have also had brunch there a number of times I particularly recall a wonderful dish of polenta and mushrooms that was like the plate good. Bottom line, I'm not quite sure why this place is not packed every night...it's bustly, but there were a few open tables. Old Street (especially west is oddly lacking in interesting spots. Thank goodness for The Three Crowns."

Good place, good food, good value. Enjoyed lunch there. Nice to be able to see the kitchen from the restaurant.

When booking I found all the pubs in Islington to be fully booked. The 3 crowns can up in my search so I booked it with slight trepidation. I needn't have worried as the food and service were excellent. View menu

It's a pub, with the bar open to a back room with tables in, yet the prices are rather elevated for what it is. And the service charge! Oh come on, you're a pub, not a restaurant. Stop gouging your customers for an extra 12.5% and let use decide on a tip.

Food was pretty good, lacked seasoning but not bad for the price. Service was some of the worst experienced living in London. Had to ask for more to drink at a PUB. Server seemed more interested in other things. Had to find someone to ask for the bill. Probably a better place for Sunday Lunch.

I came with my partner for a pre-Barbican Cinema meal. Staff made sure that we had been served in good time for our film. Lee Urch's food was delicious, particularly the homemade pate and terrine and a warming, fragrant lamb stew. A lovely relaxed atmosphere. Lively, but not too noisy for a chat. Friendly, efficient service. I'll be back! View menu

We really loved this place when we visited the first time, and it was just as fabulous going back. The service was outstanding, I am wheat and dairy intolerant and the waiter was incredibly helpful, his dish recommendations also went down very well with my less awkward dining companions. The cod was wonderful, as were the super-crispy chips and elderflower sorbet

Four of us met for lunch and we had varieties of liver, pork and haddock; all well cooked and served fresh within a reasonable time. Very pleasant ambiance, although building works across the road just now did leave something to be desired. No opportunity to eat outside, but this is right in the centre of a busy area, so not exactly a surprise. We enjoyed our meal and were not harassed to leave, which is another plus.

"A friend and I stumbled on to this neighbourhood restaurant by chance; no research, no booking, no expectations. We were then blown away by the quality of the food: wonderfully fresh fish, beautifully cooked. The service is also exemplary. I've always enjoyed calamari, but this was by far the best I've ever had: truly succulent and juicy. The mussels were almost as good, and the sea bream kept up the standard. The spiced quince with ice cream made a nice change from baclava in a Turkish restaurant (they still threw in some baclava). The owner, Tony, provides excellent recommendations — make sure you take them! He knows what's fresh that morning, and how his wife cooks it. The bill comes hand-written, and Tony forgot to include the wine (obviously I corrected him). I can't remember the last time a restaurant bill made a mistake in the customers' favour! No service charge is included, and it deserves a lot more than the usual 12.5%. This is a wonderful, old-fashioned restaurant, run by a charming old couple, committed to maintaining old-fashioned standards. The food is more than great and the prices more than reasonable. Service is personal, honest and responsive (providing Tony turns his hearing aid on). Tony warns you if anything you wanted was bought in, rather than home-made. Why don't unassuming but wonderful restaurants like this get Michelin stars?"
