The Bell & Buck, Barnet

Another one bites the dust, or certainly looks like it from driving past on Saturday night. Now all boarded up aot a lot of indication that it may re-open

Halleluiah, a pub with four dartboards a pool table and plenty of plasma screens for the Sky and Setanta. A disco or band was setting up during my visit and the stage behind had far too many Spurs flags up on the wall for my liking! There's an unused ale pump and the Guinness was very nice. There are also about five standard lagers, but two of these were off. It's a bit bare, but I got the impression that it is more of a music venue as there were only about four other customers at 19:30 on a Saturday evening and there is limited seating for a pub of its size. The barmaids were friendly, but I'd probably not go back unless I was out for a bop or I was passing and wanted to catch some football or chuck some arrows.

As you can see by the sign,it used to be called The Bailey
