Info
The Lexington is a pub and music venue on Pentonville Road in Islington, London that opened in 2008. The bar specialises in bourbon, as well as American craft beer. The building it is in was built in 1850.The venue area is upstairs, with a raised back section by the bar. The front of this has bench seating, but facing away from the stage.On Monday evenings the pub has a music quiz, previously sponsored by Rough Trade, that is usually hosted by Paul Guided Missile.The Lexington was particularly badly hit by a reform of London business rates in 2017, with a proposed increase of more than 200 per cent (the average for London music venues being about 38 per cent). The venue challenged this and managed to get somewhat of a reduction.
