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.

The welcome was great on arrival and the drinks waiter was so helpful and made us feel comfortable. The manager was very good at explaining they were busy and he would do his best. He was very helpful. The food was fantastic and really tasty. We will definitely be back.

The Bald Faced Stag does a great Sunday roast, and interesting other main courses as well. The portions are big, and unfortunately no room for pudding

A lovely Sunday Roast Lamb Dinner and a tasty chocolate and orange sponge desert. Great service from all the staff. Lovely, spacious, warm and relaxing restaurant with a friendly, cosy ambience - in my opinion. I'll definitely be eating more meals there.

2 roast lambs with accompanying vegetables. Kale was tough (underdone?). Not the best lamb I have ever had. We were first in dining room so service was excellent. Grandson’s chocolate ice cream one scoop in a glass dish was underwhelming. Had to tell the till operator to add our drinks to the bill (there’s honesty for you!).

We went here for a birthday treat and to do the quiz. The guy at the front of house forgot about our booking moved us into the restaurant where we couldn’t do the quiz then moved us outside then moved us back inside. Despite me stating on my booking 1 week prior that we were there for food and the quiz. The management of our booking and forcing us to sit in the cold was appalling. We weren’t offered anything in return for the terrible treatment. Don’t waste your money on such a rude business.
