About Builders Arms
A popular real ale outlet since the 1970s,hidden away in a side street off the East Barnet Road. The quiet saloon bar is a contrast to the lively public bar which has pool table and TV . There is a garden at the back where you can watch the trains go by. Look out for the imitation blue plaque above the entrance.
There is a garden at the rear that now houses a Garden room with eclectic furniture where regular live music events are held. This can also be booked for private functions.
Some of the furniture outside is made from recycled pallets. A couple of chairs are made from a few spades, forks and hoes!!
Home cooked pub fayre served.
May close early if quiet.

Tucked away down a side road between thr Railway Bell (the 'Spoons) and the new Park Quarter development you wouldn't know this place was here unless you looked for it. But in my mind this is one of the nicest pubs in the New Barnet area; given the location is quiet and calm but it's spacious inside and out with a really nice secluded bar garden. It's a Greene King so expect decent food and beers. Friendly staff, football on TV and dog friendly too.

Really nice pub with great outdoor seating area at the back. Good beers, food and music (sometimes live bands) and very friendly service.

I was working in New Barnet for a few days and found this lovely little town pub tucked behind the Wetherspoons. Don't go in the Spoons! Go around the corner, the Builder's is 20 metres down the road. Excellent Greene King beers, reasonably priced for London, super front bar and a clever use of the outside space which was good for a summer afternoon, but also has gas burners and lights for evenings and somewhere called a Fun House, which all looks most fun indeed. Staff very friendly, so too the clientele. A very good find in a London 'village' not often explored. Very good. I may be back at…
