Priory Tavern, Kilburn

About Priory Tavern

Local boozer with internationally influenced pub fodder, games, live music and quiz nights.

Following a refurbishment, reopened in April 2018 as part of Ei Group's managed division. Reverted to tenanted by end of 2023.

Just off the Kilburn High Road, the Priory Tavern has stood at this site since at least 1927, and most likely before that. Its exterior features some fine signs of its former life as a Truman's pub as does an interior illuminated sign. Lots of stripped wood with exposed and varnished floorboards surround a large island bar.

While it has a contemporary feel aimed at a younger clientele, it should be attractive to all ages as conversation is positively encouraged. Dart board, piano and quiz night. Well worth visiting.

    Really great eating experience. I went twice during my five day trip in London. The burgers were delicious and I enjoyed the ambience. The servers were very accomodating and attentive to my party. For this to be a neighborhood bar, it also doubles as a nice dining night out. My only issue, albeit very minimal, was the amount of fries. I wish there'd been more, but that's probably a culture thing on my part. I would visit again.

    The Priory Tavern is local to us and recently changed ownership in the last 5 months. The menu caught our eyes as we were walking past. The food did not disappoint. The liver patte was excellent, and the roast was full of flavour. It also had a lot going on, which I personally love. Lots of veg, incredible potatoes, and a very tasty bit of beef. The staff were brilliant and the pub was very spacious. Board games, jazz night, and quiz nights to come. We will be back for sure!

    Just been in for some food after a day of travelling. Treated myself to a steak and just hoped it was edible to be honest. It was the most succulent perfectly cooked rib eye with homemade horseradish and a watercress and caper salad. Was delicious, my daughter had a burger and ate it all! Nice atmosphere and good beer selection. Can’t wait to come back.

    Really good food and diverse menu, great range of drinks including a very decent pint of Guinness. Lovely, relaxed atmosphere as only good London boozers can do.

    Nice Pub shame about the Lamb! 🐑🤢🤕🧻🚽 Popped in yesterday for a Sunday roast. Treated myself to a £19 Lamb roast (pulled/shredded Lamb was a new and unexpected surprise experience for me) dinner with shredded cabbage and huge Yorkshire pudding etc.... did taste a little strange and overly salted, but hunger forced me on through. Bit of a grumbling tummy today, and can't stray too far from the lavatory at work so no long trips planned for today 😬 On a positive note, The Girlfriend did say she enjoyed her chicken Sunday roast though , so I guess maybe I drew the short straw on this…
