The Lexington Concerts 2024-2025

Went in for a drink and a concert. One glass of medium red wine £7, the concert was £11 with a few bands playing on the upstairs floor. The downstairs area has tables, couches, they have drinks and food including pizzas. Upstairs there a big room for concerts, a stage and another bar for drinks. It's a place for all ages

🚇 Angel 🍺 £6.20 Cruzcampo Victorian London Meets The Wild West. The Lexington is located on the border between Angel and Clerkenwell on busy Pentonville Road. The nearest Tube is Angel, it’s a five minute walk to get here. Originally this was The Belvedere Tavern which was built in 1780, the pub was rebuilt in 1876. This boozer went through a few name changes over the years, in 2008 The Lexington opened its doors. The main bar is located on the ground floor and has a wonderful high ceiling. The severy is at the opposite end to the entrance and spans the width of the bar. The decor here is amazing, it's a combination of Wild West Saloon meets Victorian Parlour meets 1930's Interwar Pub. The bar is split level, to the right is a raised area which has beautiful interwar panelled DJ booth with a cosy snug area behind. In the snug area you will find oxblood Chesterfields, a few cattle skulls and not forgetting a couple of musket guns with bayonets attached. By the entrance on the left are some fantastic original 1930's booths, at the end of the booths is an old Joanna with a few keys missing. To complete the look are rustic tables and chairs, flock wallpaper and an old-school Jukebox. Upstairs is a 200 capacity venue for hosting live music and events. The beer selection offers a selection of familiar favourites, three cask ales and interestingly a selection of imported American Craft beer. There are beers from Pabst and also San Diego Brewers @stonebrewing . Me being the least adventurous drinker in the world chose a Cruzcampo. My pint hit the spot, price was just above average. The Lexington also offers a vast array of Whiskies, so if you fancy a 15-year-old Pappy Van Winkle, your in luck. The food on offer is Pizza by @alessios.pizza, a margherita pizza costs a tenner. We arrived around 2pm on a Saturday afternoon in October. The pub was quiet as it is located in a low footfall area and is generally perceived as a destination pub for live music. Because it was quiet we got to have a good mooch around the pub and had a chat with the friendliest of bar staff who told us all about the American beers and Whiskies. The soundtrack was superb, there was a quality chill hop playlist playing in the background. The pub hosts a Pop Quiz every Monday, DJ’s spinning an eclectic mix of tunes from all genres and a happy hour 4-7pm Monday to Friday, pints cost £4!!!. Upstairs there are regular live music gigs, check @thelexingtonlondon for who's playing. We absolutely loved visiting this pub, especially the mix of old London Pub with Americana. Visiting during the day will be a vastly different experience than the evenings when this pub comes to life. But if I can offer a recommendation to visit a pub during the day, it would be this one so you can marvel at this unique and interesting London Boozer. ℹ️ Info correct on visiting 14.10.23

the lexington lager is great, I'm so glad I tried it. the staff is super nice. and the event venue upstairs is very cool.

Popped in for a pint on a week day, not many customers so I had a good chance to enjoy the decor. Cool old fashioned pub with good beer selection. I can imagine it is a great place to watch a gig

Great venue, excellent atmosphere, upstairs for the best live gigs on the circuit, downstairs for drinks on comfy seaters with friends. Near Angel tube. Just a great venue for a brilliant night out in London. Would highly recommend!
