About Prince of Wales
Burgers, wings & other comfort food served in a vibrant pub that has DJ & quiz nights.
Relaunched in summer 2013 as part of the 'Lambeth' which includes the POW nightclub above the pub (formerly Plan B from down the road at 418) which has a separate entrance, two terraces upstairs and music until 5am. The two venues are run as separate enterprises. The ground floor area accessed from Coldharbour Lane has a more traditional pub feel.
The Prince of Wales had previously been refurbished as a gastropub with the name shortened to Prince, but is primarily a Wednesday to Sunday music venue.
Pizzas served most nights. Families welcome until 9pm.
Newspapers, free WiFi and no intrusive music
Formerly Prince, Harlem and originally Prince of Wales.

We had a lovely evening here and the bar staff are always friendly. Free entry to go in. Security was pleasant, no issues getting in. There was a live band playing, with multiple singers on the mic..... Very chilled out vibe. This place has changed over the years, but overall it's still a nice place to visit when in Brixton. Nice colourful designs on the wall, in the beer garden.

📍 Prince of Wales 🌍 Brixton 🏛 A hefty brick curved frontage sits above the bright blue ground level pub, you really can't miss this place. Indoors it's a large open space which is only broken up by a few substantial columns. There's nothing flashy here but a few pop art prints bring colour to the room 🍺 Decent choice but nothing too amazing. 🙋♂️My view: This Prince of Wales clearly prefers the night time, as does a lot of Brixton. It doesn't open until 4pm on weekdays and 3pm at weekends. It's in business til 2am on Fridays and Saturdays though. There's nothing spectacular or unique…

I have to say, I don’t live in South London, but I’ve just come to this pub ahead of going to the academy and it’s by far one of the nicest pubs I’ve ever been to. The staff are super friendly, the food is good as are the drinks and very reasonably priced. But what really got me is how lovely the bouncer was two elder customers that came in, he helped them to their seats, carried their drinks and this is at peak time on a Saturday. That is unheard of in London. Well done, I’ll be back!!

The most Horrible place i have ever been. The staff cheats on the drinks. Beware of that! (They said it is same what a xxxxx) Not worth the entrance fee at all. I would rather go to a normal pub instead.
