The Twelve Pins (pub)

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This is a totally non-notable pub, of the kind one finds on any London street; it has absolutely no distinguishing architectural features, unusual history or unique attributes, other than its unusual name (whatever its website may try to tell you to the contrary, nothing to do with the Irish mountain range but simply an attempt to cash in on the popularity of the bowling alley next door). The closest thing it has to a (tenuous) claim to notability is being the first pub one comes across when walking from Finsbury Park station to the Emirates Stadium, and consequently an occasional mention in football-related material, but that's no more of a claim to notability than "bar near Giants Stadium" would be in the US. – iride  scent  22:03, 17 October 2009 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Delete: I can't find significant coverage for this pub. Joe Chill (talk) 00:26, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment: A bar near Giants Stadium would be more notable because there are none as far as I am aware (its one of those sea of parking lots stadiums). As for the Pins, its good to know Irish Pubs are a marketing gimmick in London as well.--Milowent (talk) 04:46, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
