The Step

And that’s that...

Final night...done. Busiest evening we’ve ever had so a good way to go out. Just me, the ghost and a glass of Douro left toasting the good times. There have been so so many. Cheers and thank you.

Quizzing...gonna bloody miss it!

So it’s the quiz tonight...the last one ever! We are more than fully booked and really can’t fit anyone else in. Quizzers...it’s going to be a cracker, The Rascal is chuckling to himself as he put the finishing touches to it. Roald Dahl will definitely feature.

Roll up roll up...one more week to go at the fun house! 🤡

Old skool reunion! As we near the final curtain we are bringing back a few of our favourites!

After a mammoth fourteen hours behind the bar yesterday I’m treating myself to a lock in for one this evening. Well, for two if you count Captain Hastings. Which we do, of course.

Aaaaaaaah. Always raises a smile when this comes on in The Step. The first dance at our wedding. 😍 open.spotify.com/track/5T8Cz…

Not just any port in a storm...

Just road testing the quiz...thought a bit of gallows humour might start the evening off and play Everybody Hurts by R.E.M... No. Just no! Table 13 flooded out with tears. Didn’t even make it to Michael Stipe. 🤣

So...we’ve a quiz tonight which to the best of my knowledge is sold out. How hard can it be to stand up and ask forty questions?

We don’t want you to hear it through the grapevine, it’s true The Step will be closing soon. We’ve had an incredible time, made so many friends with memories to last a lifetime. We need some time as a family now though Words aren’t enough but thank you everybody. We love you X

New starter for the weekend. Spinach and ricotta dumpling with a beurre noisette, crispy sage and Parmesan

I know the cat has got your tongue @haringeycouncil @VeoliaUK but this is right outside our restaurant right now. When you took us to court your lawyers came out with all manner of claptrap about us ruining Myddleton Road. We’d like your view on why you think this is acceptable?

Even by your standards this takes the biscuit ⁦@haringeycouncil⁩ ⁦@VeoliaUK⁩ Yet again, we tidied it up for you. Don’t mention it

Not just any port in a storm...

That is...a mighty big pan.

Playing this for our Eli today. If you see him whisper it in his ear. Or wish him well. open.spotify.com/track/4hP4N…

Well would you look at that now.
