Punters flocked to the return of a much-anticipated pub after its closure 11 years ago.
The Crown, in Highgate High Street, opened its doors on Thursday (June 23) at the former Rose & Crown location.
In 2012 the Rose & Crown shut down and was replaced by the bakery Pain Quotidien.

But the café chain closed its branch last year and the Grade II listed building was taken over by Leeds based Northern Union pubs.
The pub is open 12pm to 11pm from Monday to Thursday and 11am to 12am on Friday and Saturday. It opens at 12pm and shuts 10.30pm on Sunday.
