Nestled in the vibrant neighborhood of Kentish Town, The Pineapple stands out as a charming pub that masterfully combines the warmth of a traditional British tavern with the exotic allure of Thai cuisine. This unique establishment offers an inviting atmosphere where locals and visitors alike gather to enjoy a perfect blend of craft beers, flavorful dishes, and a lively yet cozy ambiance. Its historic charm, coupled with a modern twist, makes it a must-visit spot for those seeking authentic Thai flavors in a quintessential pub setting.

I had a business meet up here at the recommendation of the person I was meeting.  It was a good choice because it is a Thai cuisine and I love Thai food.  I tried the house ale, the Pineapple Ale, which I enjoyed.  For my meal, I had the Thai Dim Sum (fried prawns and pork) and the Pad Ka Prow (Prawns with garlic, chillies, onions, mixed vegetables and Thai basil).  The food was good with a good amount of spiciness without being overwhelming.  I liked the abundance of natural light that illuminated the establishment.

I loved this place! It was recommended by a local...such a quirky and unique establishment. It's an old house turned into a pub...love the concept! Where else can you get Thai food and local craft beer at a pub in the UK or anywhere else!?

The decor is just shabby chic with a pub twist. As you walk in, you'll see the bar right away and that's where you order and pay for your food & drinks. Each room has an unique seating area with furniture that you may find at grandmas...haha! There are two levels and a garden area where you can dine with beautiful foliage, plus a covered patio area with glass surround. They have board games too!

Good selection of craft beer on tap and wine, and the Thai is pretty good too (4 stars)...except the portions a little smaller then what I'm use to in the US, but for a pad se ew and a half pint it was just under £10!!

Lots of locals here of all age range, great ambience, tasty Thai food, and great craft beer :) What else can one ask for!? I will definitely come back if I'm ever in the area. Cheers!!!

Went for dinner and stayed for Quiz Night. Loads of fun with the locals! 

Good Thai food, smaller portions than we're accustomed to but plenty to eat and with one soup, one seafood fried rice, and a pad Thai, we left very satisfied. My fiancé enjoyed a local brew and I loved the ambiance. Hope to go back again before we leave town. 

It's located in a quiet neighborhood and we felt safe walking there and back to our rented flat in Camden.

Great combination of beer and Thai food in a pub atmosphere.  It's a little bit of a hike from the tube station but worth the walk

Best pub in Kentish Town - without a doubt. A little cramped perhaps, but easily compensated for by the warm atmosphere and outstanding cuisine. As Michelin Guide would say, it is well worth a detour. Vila!

A converted private residence, this bar (and Thai restaurant?) has multiple homely rooms with residential decoration and boasts a decent number of craft beer taps. Bartenders were friendly and poured all beers correctly in proper glassware. I had a Mosaic hop pale at £4,50 a pint, which tasted decently fresh. The venue also has a good amount of board games, which is a nice touch. However, the games are woefully out of date. They need to invest in games like Codenames, Bang! The Dice Game, and Dixit; which are far better for social interaction.

The Pineapple is one of my favourite pubs in London.  Situated in one of the leafy streets of Kentish Town, the Pineapple is apparently the watering hole of many a musician and the roadies that carry their stuff.

Homely, quirky, and fabulous, The Pineapple sports a rather great beer garden (yes, with heaters, and I believe most of it's covered too for those rainy days when smokers still need to relieve themselves of nicotine cravings).  

One of my favourite things about the Pineapple is the food. They have an amazing thai restaurant, meals all under a tenner, and they are brilliant. Oh and they have boardgames too.  And the last Sunday afternoon somehow a whole platter of sausages, bread rolls and ketchup appeared on the bar for everyone to tuck into. The staff are super hot too.  It's so super fabulous. I totally love this place.

What a lovely, lovely pub.

A couple of my neighbours told me that this is their favourite pub in the area, so we have been meaning to visit for a while. As everyone has already mentioned, it is a busy pub with a relaxed atmosphere on a residential street (between Kentish Town and Tufnell Park.) There is a large conservatory area in the back and plenty of space in the beer garden. 

They have a good selection of interesting beers and ales (and there was a 'cider pop up' in the corner when we were there last night.) While I was ordering, the bar man knew the order of a lady's husband better than she did, and he had a white wine ready for another man before he needed to ask for it...so it sounds like quite a few people come here a lot!

Food:
Everyone else that has reviewed the pineapple seems to rave about the food, so maybe I expected too much. I thought it was good, but not amazing... it isn't as good as the Thai restaurant around the corner.
- The starters seemed like buy-them-frozen-and-stick-them-in-the-oven jobbies. Nice, but the same as you might buy from M&S and heat up at home.
- The Pad Thai was just allright
- The red curry was creamy and really good
BUT it is cheap, and the portions are huge. If you don't expect anything gourmet, then it's not bad.

Best pub in Kentish Town and the best Thai food in the immediate vicinity.

This is my weekly pub when I'm in London.  I love everything about it but the staff truly can't be beat.

Comfortable, historic, great beer, and never too crowded never too empty.
