Bars in Barnet

“A classic pub with a great, warm atmosphere and good beers. They don't serve food.”

“Really friendly pub! We popped in for a quick drink but all the staff were really friendly. We would definitely come back!”

“The perfect experience of British food. If you don’t know any British food other than fish&chips then try this place. Very delicious food.”

“One of the best meals I’ve had in all of London what a treat. Phenomenal service, lovely setting and incredible dishes. Will be back often and can’t stop telling friends to visit!!”

“I’ve lived around the corner from The Boulevard for 20 years, and that’s exactly how long I’ve been coming here. What first appears like a private club behind frosted glass, actually becomes a mid size restaurant, private dining room and bar recently refurbished. Step inside for a proper Indian menu, not some westernised pretend curry house, many of the dishes you may not have seen before. It’s a great menu, the chefs and staff have been here years and they certainly know what they’re doing. And it’s great for Sky Sports too, what’s not to like?!”

“Georgina was a lovely waitress — friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful throughout our visit. She made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived and was always happy to help with a smile. Her service really added to the overall experience. Thank you, Georgina!”

“Me and my husband are very pleased to see the queens reopened.we have recently visited on a number of occasions over the past couple of weeks.each time we have been warmly welcomed and well looked after by all the staff we have met especially faith and Nathan who both seem very passionate about making the pub a success and care about the customer's experience and opinions.we had fish and chips on Friday, which was not only great value as it came with a drink for £13:95 but was also delicious. We will definitely be back to eat here again.”

“Megan and her team did an amazing job of looking after us all for my husband’s family birthday bash. We were a large group and were able to have the restaurant side of the pub exclusively for us. It was such a lovely evening! The food was delicious and staff couldn’t have done more to help us. We will definitely be back to eat again soon. Thanks for having us!”

“To be honest I can't rate the food as I am not sure they even do food, but it's a great pub with a good selection of beers. Really nice location too.”

“Lovely little pub. The service is friendly and we always feel welcome. Highly recommended if you are in New Barnet!”

“Jamie, Megan & co are very friendly and want more people to visit. Its had a revamp, lots on a weekend and during the week. Well worth a visit and the drinks are reasonably priced too. See you again soon.”

“Had a lovely Sunday dinner here (12/10). The chicken skewers were delicious & the portion size was perfect. Our server was very attentive too. Will be back soon!”

“We attended a wake here. The staff were polite, respectful and attentive. Parking was easy. The hotel is beautiful, immaculately clean, in a stunning location and had a relaxing atmosphere. The food was excellent quality and delicious. (We didn't use or see the bedrooms.)”

“Delicious for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. Always lovely freshly made food with attentive and friendly service. Never disappoints”

“I have been to Middeys on several occasions and they offer a wide-range of excellent halal dishes. The drinks are also superb - I love the lychee bubbles - and the service is fantastic place. It is very popular but have gone several times without needing to book.”

“I used this cafe during Lockdown and have always enjoyed the quality of food and beverages. The hot chocolate is warming, delicious alternative to coffee.”

“georgia and josh are very accommodating and amazing hosts, highly recommend this establishment!!!!”

“Best pub in Barnet! The food is top notch and the Guinness, along with all other drinks, is the best around. Perfection of a pub.”

“We had the Christmas menu. It was delicious from start to finish. Although it was all incredible, the marmalade ice cream was very special. Staff were all fantastic even on a very busy evening. Polite, friendly and very efficient.Two tiny disappointments were a lack of festive arrangements on the tables and no winter ales on tap but in no way deflected from a lovely evening, at a very fair price. Thanks to all.”

“One of my favourite pubs, for the interior and friendly staff. Outside is well catered for with large parasols. Food is good for the price. But make sure you get your dessert order in.”

“Based on my first visit (weekday lunchtime) I found the pub extremely welcoming, clean and comfortable. I had time to kill before my hospital appointment so stayed for a coffee and wine, no food. Manager Amy was personable, warm and extremely hospitable and I watched her greet a handful of customers by first name. The pub is spacious though I'm told they get very busy in the evenings and special occasions.Toilets were clean, spacious and nicely decorated, the washbasin was lower than usual which I assume is also great for kids and wheelchair users. I would say this pub could cater to most accessibility needs. There is a large garden with wooden seating and decked areas but sadly the weather wasn't playing ball today, so I'll return later in the summer.”

“Really great place since the refurbishment. Lovely dining room and then the bar separate with a good quality pool table. Very friendly service and the bar tenders are always helpful with helping me choose something new to try. Clean, good environment and lovely food. The portions are decent. Nice that there is seating outside for us smokers”

“This place is amazing and so welcoming. The staff are outstanding, especially the landlord Steve.”

“The Red Lion Restaurant in High Barnet is a charming venue with a warm and inviting atmosphere. Alongside their delicious menu of classic and modern dishes, they also offer a great selection of drinks to complement your meal. The friendly service and cozy ambiance make it a perfect spot for a relaxed meal, drinks, or a special gathering. Highly recommended!”

“Edit: this Costa is just getting better and better. The service has been really quick, the food and drinks are getting better and this shop looks clean too! Highly recommended now! Original review: Good size Costa coffee shop, loses points for how disgusting the iced latte was”

“Great Pub, can be noisy if you sit near the Kitchen, great service and choice, everything you'd expect from a Spoons Pub.”

“Visited Mayhill’s for the first time last night and my friends and I absolutely loved it! The food was exceptional, the tiger prawns were hands down the best we’ve ever eaten! The drinks were delicious, the service was excellent. The DJ and belly dancer were great but we would’ve liked more entertainment for a Saturday night but other than that we’d highly recommend it.”

“I order from them tonight for the first time since it has new ownership. Both my son and I thought the food was delicious! Arrived quickly will definitely order from them again, it will be my new Indian takeaway. I don't usually leave reviews but I felt compelled to.”

“Their pub The Black Horse is one of the best in Barnet. Good food, Great outdoor beer garden, including a separate function area. Fantastic staff.”

“We recently celebrated our wedding anniversary with a stay at DoubleTree by Hilton Borehamwood, and it was truly unforgettable. From the moment we booked, the team went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Their support and kindness—even before we arrived—set the tone for a wonderful experience. We stayed in an accessible room, which was spotlessly clean, tidy, and thoughtfully laid out. It made our stay comfortable and stress-free, which we really appreciated. The restaurant staff were outstanding—warm, attentive, and genuinely caring. The complimentary breakfast was delicious, and the beautifully organised presentation made our anniversary feel extra special. Every detail reflected care and professionalism. Thank you to everyone who helped make our stay so memorable. We left with full hearts and beautiful memories—and we’ll definitely be returning.”
