SUMMARY:Stars\, stripes & stilletos. The best Drag Brunch in Islington.
DESCRIPTION:The Brunch: Southern\, Stunning\, and Stuffed with Joy\nIf you’re after brunch with attitude\, welcome to the wildest drag brunch in Islington. Taking place on Sunday the 6th of July\, starting from 12:30pm. Hosted by Monroe\, this brunch brings Southern flavour\, star-spangled sass\, and unapologetic queer joy to our canal-side Louisiana pub. \nThe menu includes both meat\, veg and vegan options – think fried chicken\, eggs sardou\, and smashed avocado. \nIt’s an after-party for Pride in London. An after-after-party for the 4th of July. A brunch where the Sazeracs are strong and the lipstick’s even stronger. Come hungry\, come camp\, and book early – this is a drag brunch in Islington worth dressing up for. \nWe recommend only adults for the performance\, but dogs and furry friends are allowed. \nFor the full menu see here. \nBOOK YOUR SPOT NOW \n\n\n\n\nMonroe Hosts: Lip Syncs\, Games & Gorgeous Mayhem\nWho the F*ck is Monroe?! Your next obsession\, that’s who. Monroe is the Guernsey-born alternative drag artist tearing up the UK cabaret circuit with powerhouse vocals\, filthy humour\, and a look that’ll melt your brunch. A finalist in Drag Idol UK 2024\, Monroe’s already smashed it at Download Festival\, strutted through residencies in London and Brighton\, and left a trail of sequins\, screams\, and stunned straight men wherever she’s gone. \nAt our drag brunch in Islington\, she’s not just hosting – she’s commanding the floor with killer performances\, games\, chaos\, and crowd energy so high it should come with a warning. Whether she’s lip-syncing\, live singing\, heckling\, or flirting\, Monroe delivers drag you feel in your gut (careful) and remember in your hangover. \nWitty\, wild\, and wildly talented\, she’s the showgirl with soul – and she’ll have you howling before the chicken bones even land. \nRESERVE YOUR TABLE TODAY \n\n\n\n\n\n\nA Drag Brunch in London\, But With Louisiana Spice\nLooking for a drag brunch that hits different? We’re in a Louisiana-inspired pub\, tucked on a sunny canal corner near Angel Station\, serving pecan pain perdu and grits\, pouring bourbon and beer\, and blaring queer joy out the windows. Taking place on Sunday the 6th of July\, starting from Midday. \nOutside\, our hanging-basked-draped red-brick pub is soaked in sunshine. Inside\, there’s Monroe in gingham and latex. We serve the pancakes\, Monroe serves everything else. Whatever it is\, it’ll be delicious and messy and too much – just like the show. \nThis is your invitation to celebrate Pride\, salute the 4th of July\, or just scream-sing along to Americana hits while passing the Tabasco. It’s queer\, it’s Southern\, it’s summer – and it’s everything a drag brunch in Islington should be. \nWe recommend only adults for the performance\, but dogs and furry friends are allowed. \nFor the full menu see here. \nBOOK YOUR DRAG BRUNCH

At our Louisiana-inspired pub just minutes from Angel\, we’re serving up an afternoon of food\, music and good times that’s hard to beat. \nLive from 12:30pm\, we’re proud to welcome guitarist Al Dunn and multi-instrumentalist Dai Price for a laid-back set of rootsy jazz and blues\, perfect for soaking up summer sunshine with family and friends. With influences ranging from swampy Delta blues to vintage swing\, their duo performance blends technical skill with deep musical feel — and it’s entirely free to enjoy. \nAl Dunn is best known for his work with The Cosimo Matassa Project\, a band paying tribute to the golden era of New Orleans rhythm and blues. He’s shared the stage with the likes of Allen Toussaint and James Hunter\, bringing gritty guitar tones and a love of Southern groove to every set. \nDai Price\, meanwhile\, is a composer\, producer\, and multi-instrumentalist originally from South Wales\, now based in London. His credits include Dai & The Ramblers\, Los Chinches\, and Spengler\, with performances at venues such as Ronnie Scott’s\, The Roundhouse\, and St David’s Hall. His music has been broadcast on BBC Radio 2\, Jazz FM\, and 6Music\, and has been released on labels including Ace Records and Tru-Thoughts. \nTogether\, Al and Dai channel the energy of New Orleans while nodding to British roots\, creating a sound that’s both familiar and fresh — ideal for a Father’s Day brunch in Islington that’s full of soul. \nAnd of course\, the food and drink are just as important. Our kitchen will be cooking up a full Southern brunch menu\, with signatures like shrimp and grits\, beignets\, and seafood gumbo\, alongside specials like lobster po’boys\, grilled and baked oysters\, and our towering seafood platters loaded with crab\, prawns and more. \nPair it with a Bloody Mary\, a cold beer\, or one of our premium Pappy Van Winkle bourbon pours — a rare treat for dads who like their whiskey rich and smooth. Whether you’re coming for a long lazy meal or just a drink and a snack\, there’s something on offer for everyone. \nThe event runs all afternoon\, with music starting at 12:30pm\, and brunch available throughout. Entry is free\, but tables fill quickly — especially on Father’s Day — so we recommend booking in advance to secure your spot. \nLooking for Father’s Day ideas in Islington? This is more than just brunch — it’s a full-on celebration of New Orleans food\, live jazz\, and proper hospitality. Whether your dad’s a music lover\, a foodie\, or just someone who appreciates good company in the sunshine\, this event brings it all together. \nNo tickets\, no cover charge\, just damn good food and music. We’ll see you by the canal. \n\n\n\nBOOK A TABLE NOW\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\nAnd if you’ve never been to one of our Sunday sessions before\, Father’s Day is the perfect excuse. The vibe is easy-going and joyful — kids and dogs are welcome\, the windows are flung open\, and the good times spill out onto the towpath. We’ve even got a few surprises in store for the occasion\, so keep an eye on our socials for specials\, shoutouts\, and behind-the-scenes peeks. \nLocated just a short walk from Angel Station\, our pub is easy to reach and impossible to forget — a slice of the South in the heart of North London. Whether you’re booking for your dad\, your grandad\, your chosen family\, or yourself\, we’re proud to host a Father’s Day celebration that’s big on flavour\, full of feeling\, and unmistakably one of a kind. \nCome hungry.

SUMMARY:Jazz Lunch w/ Al Dunn
DESCRIPTION:Al “Dente” Dunn\, a pianist\, MD\, and arranger\, holds these roles within the popular London sextet known as the Cosimo Matassa Project. This musical ensemble draws inspiration from the countless joyous recordings that emanated from the famous J&M Studios of New Orleans during the late ’40s\, ’50s\, and ’60s. \nHis exceptional playing style is influenced by renowned musicians like Allen Toussaint\, Fats Domino\, Dr. John\, Huey “Piano” Smith\, Tuts Washington\, Professor Longhair\, and\, of course\, the great Jelly Roll Morton. \nDemonstrating a monster groove and impressive technique\, his performances beautifully evoke the vibrant atmosphere of a New Orleans speakeasy\, complete with stomping piano and jubilant Mardi Gras songs. \nIn addition to his contributions to the Cosimo Matassa Project\, Al “Dente” Dunn has been a longtime keyboardist for Sir Bob Geldof\, and more recently\, he has been involved with The Boomtown Rats. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBOOK A TABLE NOW
