St. John’s Tavern is a much-loved bar and restaurant in Archway, North London. Since opening in 1998, we have built a loyal following for our food, rooted in seasonal British and regional European cooking. Named one of London’s 50 best gastropubs by the Evening Standard, we are proud of our heritage and excited for what comes next.
Our building includes three kitchens. One serves the bar, another is the open wood-fired grill in the dining room and the third supports private events and regular supper clubs.
Our inspiration comes from the generous dining traditions of Europe, including chop houses, brasseries, trattoria and comedores. We aim to provide outstanding food at honest prices in a warm and welcoming local setting.
We pride ourselves on maintaining a highly organised, clean, and collaborative kitchen, where consistency and quality are everything. We’re now looking for a talented Chef de Partie to join our close-knit team and grow with us.
