About Old Bell

Convivial local with budget pub dining meal deals, real ales and a spacious beer garden.

Underwent a make-over a few years ago with new carpets and furniture. A very large pub with sports screens, some booths and a marvelous old pub mirror. Could be described as a remnant of old Kilburn which may be slowly fading away.

It extends at the back to a large outside space with picnic seating, mostly covered including the four TV screens; the open area at the very end overlooking the railway, which you can hear as trains pass. Smoking sems to be permitted across the whole back area. Extensive pub grub menu.

There used to be a discount Tuesday with beers at £2.50 a pint but that no longer applies, they then reinstated a discount for CAMRA members but at a visit in July 2024 this had been removed.

    When it comes to English pubs in London, Old bell Kilburn is my absolute favourite one! Me and my partner come here very often to enjoy a drink or watch football. Today we were served by Filip, Norbert, and Val, who as usual, made us feel very welcomed. All the staff is always super friendly and happy when we come here, and the service is very fast. As a regular, we really appreciate the staff remembering us, and providing us with all we need for a good night out. The bar has a great selection of beers, wine, gins, and other cocktails. The food is of great quality and the prices are really…

    Great staff, huge selection of beer and spirits, lots of tvs inside and outside for sport. They also show pay per view boxing and a disco on Friday night! What more could you want?!

    The nicest place we have visited in a while, so friendly and kind. My elderly mum has mobility issues and Max went above and beyond to help make sure she had everything she wanted , he made her day. Food was delicious too! We will be definitely visiting again, thank you and especially to Max for his excellent service.
