The new pub will be serving up local craft beers as well as hosting music and other entertainment

A new community-focussed pub has thrown open its doors in Scotland Green, Tottenham.

The Victoria held its launch party on Friday, 17th March and has since seen musicians perform in its event space The Clubhouse, as well as DJs hit the decks in their very own DJ booth.

To boot, the pub also serves a range of ales and beers on tap as well as pints from local breweries such as Ora and Exale.

Along with their weekly quiz nights on Wednesdays and ‘happy hour’ on Sunday to Friday from 4pm-6pm, The Victoria has many more events up its sleeve.

Sarah Holgate, landlady at The Victoria, said: “My fiancé and I moved to Tottenham just before Covid with our kids and immediately saw that Tottenham has such a diverse, friendly and creative community and I really want the pub to be a hub for this. Since opening a few weeks ago, its been great to see such a buzz around the pub and to meet so many people who are doing genuinely wonderful things in the area. We want the Victoria to be a place of music, arts, sport, food and fun for all ages, a place to bring people together.”
