01/04/24 - pub has reopened. The beers listed are based on a visit in Dec 2024 - "they have 3 working handpumps and at the moment they have Winter Warmer and Original. I am told the other pump would be Special." So you should find either 2 or 3 cask beers.

22/2/24 - According to the Tufnell Park Film Club, who meet at The Lord Palmerston on a Tuesday, the pub is closed for a refurb. It is apparently scheduled to reopen in late March. 27/02/24 - "Did go past the Lord Palmerson earlier, and by heck it's getting done over. There's lots of scaffolding up, and there's cleaning and goodness knows what else going on."

This is an old establishment given a modern treatment, that nods in the direction of gastro without excluding or alienating those only wanting a drink. It features a central bar and a conservatory; the windowed frontage creates a light, airy feel to the drinking experience while the high ceilings add to the impression of space. Food serving times - see their website, from an extensive menu. Outdoor seating available both on Dartmouth Park Hill frontage and in the enclosed rear courtyard. Changed hands in 2015 and became part of the Young's managed estate in 2017.
