If ETA can have Led Zep's Black Dog, I guess you sneak in too Crossste, especially if you shin up the drainpipe to the roof at closing time...

I believe there actually was a temperence society pub with no beer somewhere.

This one still exists:

You still can't buy a beer (or indeed any alcoholic drink) at the Cross Keys Inn but you can take your own and they will provide the glasses???

That actually looks like a nice "pub".

Wasn't there a muslim pub that opened in Manchestershire somewhere a couple of years ago that doesn't sell alcohol?

Straying a little off topic here but I've always wondered as to the origin of the name of this pub.

According to this, it's named after a billiard hall which used to occupy the site.

Didn't know that, good spot EG.

About the Clissold Arms in Fortis Green Road Muswell Hill. The first Pub The Kinks Played in Opposite Denmark Terrace where they Lived.


Dave Davies's song Fortis Green goes: 'Mum would shout and scream when dad would come home drunk, When she'd ask him where he'd been, he said Up The Clissold Arms, Chattin' up some hussy, but he didn't mean no harm.'
