Gastro Pub

Neighborhood gem
Charming
Good for groups

The great British pub is back and it's right at the heart of East Finchley.

The Bald Faced Stag pub, on the corner of High Road and East End Road and only a 2 minute walk from East Finchley tube station, is a beautiful pub with hints of old and new creating an amazing contemporary atmosphere throughout the week. With a menu filled with seasonal specials, pub classics and Sunday roasts to knock your socks off, our dining room is a must-visit for foodies around East Finchley and Muswell Hill.

We take pride in our huge pub garden, which is available all year round thanks to our heaters and covers. Our beautiful mother tree stands proud in the center and makes for a romantic spot.

We loved finding this gem of a spot. It was so cute and cozy, everyone was friendly and attentive, the drinks were great, and the food was some of the best we’ve had on our trip. We look forward to going back.

Hi There We definitely aren't a restaurant but a pub which serves restaurant quality food. Were more than happy to provide table service if requested to do so. It's great to see that you enjoyed the food though. We do hope to see you again. Kind Regards Team Stag

The food good, the staff friendly and the portions generous- all excellent. But when the restaurant is a quarter full and they say they’re busier than expected as an explanation for a 20 minute wait for bread and butter one suspects they actually mean they’re under-staffed.

I've been to the restaurant several times. Normally okay. Last night was awful. The two main courses we wanted were both off the menu for the evening. The Caesar salad was a few lettuce leaves with Parmesan flakes. That was it. No croutons, no anything else - and not cheap either. The gnocchi was just edible. Was the chef off for the evening?

Hi Alan Thanks for taking the time to leave us this review. We do take onboard all our reviews, and we definitely under delivered here, no excuses, this wasn't up to the standard that we expect, and I can only apologise. We do hope that you would be willing to give us another try in the future, where we can showcase the talents of our chef team. Kind Regards Team Stag

Food was quite good and service pleasant. Unfortunately the front bar where you enter was very shabby and really smelled foul. If that area gets a good clean it would help improve first impressions!
The Bald Faced StagResponded on February 27, 2024
Hi SusyR Thank you for your kind words and feedback. This is really important for us and we take it really seariusly. So rest assured that we will look into the the smell detail that you pointed out. We are very pleased that you enjoyed the food and the service. We hope to see you again soon Team Bald Faced Stag

We didn't have any starters, both enjoyed our main courses very much, and the desserts were also both good. The Stag dining area was a pleasant place to eat, and we will definitely go back there again soon.
