The Old Bull & Bush is a historic pub and restaurant on North End Way in Hampstead. Its Grade II listed building, intimate rooms and courtyard give it the feel of a country pub within London, suited to a quiet drink, family lunch or celebratory dinner.
Freshly prepared seasonal food anchors the all day menu. Premium steak cuts, stone baked pizzas and burgers sit alongside seafood, modern pub dishes and lighter lunchtime plates, providing enough range for both a quick visit and a more substantial meal.
Separate lunch, children's and dessert menus make the restaurant practical across different occasions. Sunday service brings roast dinners into focus, while vegetarian and vegan filters help guests find suitable dishes across the available menus.
Carefully selected beers, wines and ales are served throughout the week, with coffee also available for a more casual stop. Table bookings, event menus and spaces for larger groups allow this longstanding Hampstead pub to combine everyday hospitality with private celebrations.
