"There hasn’t been a decent new pub in Tottenham for what feels like a long, long time, so the opening of The High Cross is a cause for celebration. Alex Beeston and Chris Johnson have taken over the derelict public convenience at the junction of the High Road and Monument Way — and what an absolute gem. A sensitive refurb that has preserved much of the original tiling, with draught beers including local breweries Bohem and Redemption. Good homemade sausage rolls; excellent pork pies from Bray’s cottage; roast beef sandwiches on the bar; £10 roasts on Sunday — the Platonic ideal of a London pub has landed, a short walk from Seven Sisters tube." - Zeren Wilson
