Curious venue, almost deserted on my entrance a bit after 6.30pm. Even fewer in I suspect than when Alan started his NW6 crawl at 11am 2 weeks over 10 years ago. The venue certainly likes its lighting elects from the coloured glass bottle on the left hand side of the bar as you come to the massage therapy room style lighting on the small room to the right hand side of the venue. The covered small terrace at the front of the pub was pleasant in all respects other than the dose of CO you would get from the traffic on Kilburn High Rd.
Quaffs wise this was a step down from the previous venue this evening and so definitely negates the otherwise reasonably pleasant interior. Only the same two Beavertown stalwarts as previous venue and Guinness (my choice here as Alan’s on his visit) to counter the relentless onslaught of chrome taps dispensing moribund lager liquids.
Shares the same name and in same ownership as the ex-Cobden Arms on Camden High St visited by me on 6/11/23, but there i remember I had a pint of Five Points XPA so similarity in name only!

Still as Alan described it.No cask and just mainstream kegs but busy.Sky sports dominated the pub.

Brondes Age was the first open pub i found after getting of at Kilburn Jubilee line tube,so i was pleased to get in this one to start my crawl of NW6.
Once inside there is an oblong shaped room with the bar facing,the left side was for drinking,i think the right side was more of a dining area,there was a mix of seating types,the floor was tiled.
No real ales on the bar or keg bitters,so i had a Guinness which went down well.
There was some very loud background music playing at just after 11 in the morning and a few early morning drinkers in like myself.
There is an undercover outside seating area which is ideal for watching the traffic go by,but if you get bored with this there is a TV outside showing Sky Sports,so you can smoke, drink watch TV and Traffic go by all at the same time,car'nt be bad if you like all of these.
I was happy enough drinking in this pub.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Brondes Age
Odd-looking place close to Brondesbury station, with patio seating out front under a large awning. Inside, the 'U'-shaped bar divides two rooms, the larger of which has a dining area and separate dining room beyond. 80s furniture and decor, including a curious hand-shaped chair near the door. No real ale, and a bit of an atmosphere, so it was a quick pint of Guinness and I was off...

This isn't the most aesthetically pleasing place with a stainless steel bar and exposed house brick interior with tired looking red panelling around the doors. The barmaid that served me was very friendly, but there is no real ale and the Guinness was off during my visit leaving only a selection lagers available.
There are plasma screens and a projector screen for showing Sky Sports, but during my visit when the rugby had finished the loud dance music reared its ugly head. There is some covered seating out the front on Kilburn High Road, but it isn't the most pleasant place to sit and have a beer.
This maybe ok for watching the football, but I'll not be returning.
