Local Gastro Pub in Kilburn
I've finally got a local gastro pub in Kilburn!!! Ok the North London Tavern has always been there for the 2 years I've been living in Kilburn but I never got around to trying it out, and boy have I been missing out. No more horrid tube trips in central London to finding nice gastro pubs, all I need to do now is simply walk for a few minutes and poof here I am.
I've always been attracted to try this place out. From the exterior it's got this Guinness black colour and I always noticed how it was usually full and dark inside. Yesterday night with the TrustedPlaces team we ventured into the North London Tavern and were instantly pleasantly surprised. The inside has this beautiful dark wood panelling all along the walls interrupted by glass work. The ceiling is high, and whilst it was relatively full we didn't have to wait too long to get served. Now the beers aren't quite your local prices but a bit on the high end. The people in the pub seemed to be all the trendy and relaxed locals that Kilburn has, which was interesting in itself.
However what really surprised me was the "gastro" part of the gastro pub. There is a large room for the restaurant with a nice big chandelier in the middle of it. There's also a fireplace on the far left of the room, making this room a romantic one for first dates. The food itself was surprising good and definately lived up to the "gastro pub" name. I understand that they also do Sunday roasts which I hope to try out fairly soon. The pricing is about normal for a gastro pub.
If you're in the Kilburn, Cricklewood, Willesden Green or West Hampstead area then you should come and try out the London Tavern Pub.
