The Duke of Hamilton is a historic Hampstead pub at 23–25 New End, with roots reaching back to 1721. Restored under local ownership, it combines the warmth of a longstanding neighbourhood local with comfortable dining spaces, a garden and a lively programme of music beneath the pub.
Seasonal pub cooking ranges from fried chicken, soups and vegetable starters to dry aged cheeseburgers, fish and chips, schnitzel and steak. Produce from nearby suppliers and frequently changing dishes give familiar food a local character, while vegan and vegetarian mains are represented with equal care.
Sunday roasts include beef, pork, chicken and a mushroom and chestnut wellington, served with roast potatoes, vegetables, Yorkshire pudding and gravy. Traditional puddings such as crumble and sticky toffee pudding provide a comforting finish suited to the pub’s relaxed weekend rhythm.
Independent pale ales and lager sit alongside Guinness, cider, wine and alcohol free choices at the bar. The Hampstead Jazz Club operates within the pub and hosts live performances, giving guests the option of combining dinner with music, while the garden remains appealing for quieter drinks in suitable weather.
