Is Arnos Grove a nice place to live in?

Home » Resources » Your area guide » Arnos Grove

Wikipedia gives us the quick following overview of the area: “ Arnos Grove is an area of north London, England, within the London Borough of Enfield. It is centred 7.5 miles (12 km) north of Charing Cross. It is adjacent to New Southgate. The natural grove, larger than today, was for many centuries the largest woodland in the chapelry of Southgate in the parish of Edmonton. It became inter-related with Arnos Park when its owner was permitted to enclose much of its area through the widespread legal practice of inclosure of the common land to create the former park, the heart of which is now public parkland. “

Here’s the curated list of the finest pubs in Arnos Grove.

Pub name NameAddressDescription
Ranelagh82 Bounds Green Road
Bounds Green
N11 2EU
Impressive looking pub with a large, pleasant garden with a traditional wood-panelled interior, open fire in winter months. The beers available can change, has also had Adnams Broadside, Greene King IPA, Timothy Taylor Landlord, Wychwood Left Back. Occasional tap takeovers which seems to focus on “craft keg” beers, see their website for details and for their menus.
Springfield Tavern133 Bounds Green Road
London
N11 2PP
The newly refurbished Springfield Bar & Grill opened on September 27th 2013 but it now trades as The Springfield Tavern. It’s a great local for everybody in the Bounds Green area, showing all major live sports action and with live music at weekends – see their social media channels for details. It also has a Thai food offering – see website for full details. The new layout and decor is very impressive. It has lots of comfortable seating, its warm, clean and fresh.
Arnos Arms338 Bowes Road
New Southgate
N11 1AN
Emerging from Arnos Grove tube station, turn left and you can’t miss it.
Formerly a Harvester, it is now being operated by Dan Fox, late of the Bull in Highgate, then the Bohemia /London Brewing Company. As well as ever-changing cask beers, prominently on display as you enter, there are eight craft kegs. However, they may only have one cask beer on offer to maintain standards.
It is a large impressive building with seating outside on the front terrace. Inside it has been imaginatively refurbished, retaining a dining area to the left as you enter. But there is ample space for those that just want to enjoy a beer or two. Which is now something that can be heartily recommended.
Bar billiards, table football, pin ball machine and traditional board games will keep all entertained, young and old!
The three guest beers on opening night in late June 2017 were Redemption Trinity, Windsor&Eton Parklife and Thornbridge Wild Swan. But by mid June 2019, there was often only one real ale on offer.
