About This Pub
Ah, J.J. Moon's, it's one of those reliable Wetherspoon pubs that you can always count on for a good time without spending a fortune. I've popped in a few times myself, and what I love most is how affordable everything is – whether it's a pint or a full meal, it feels like a proper bargain, especially with those weekly specials that keep the drinks flowing. The staff are generally spot on, always up for a chat and serving up quickly, and the place itself is nice and clean with comfy spots to sit, both indoors and out, which makes it ideal for meeting mates after a tube ride from Wembley or just soaking up the buzz. On the flip side, though, some of the food can be a bit hit-and-miss; I remember hearing about portions not being as generous as you'd hope, and good luck finding the condiments – they're hidden away in the oddest places near the loos, which is a bit of a nuisance. Parking's another thing to watch out for if you're coming by car, and occasionally the bar service slows down, even if the team are cheerful enough. All in all, it's a solid choice for a casual evening – you get what you pay for, and for the prices, it's mostly a winner, but it's worth going in with realistic expectations to avoid any disappointments.

A great place to meet up just one stop after Wembley on the tube. Drinks and food at great prices as well.
Used this pub for the first time yesterday and it’s pretty much your standard Spoons. Good prices for the area, clean and tidy with quick service. Few negatives - the condiments were almost impossible to find tucked away on a low shelf near the toilets, the portion of beans with the breakfast resembled mush and equated to about 2 spoonful’s and the eggs over cooked and look like they were just chucked on the plate. Handy location but maybe a few tweaks required to bring it up to scratch.
Cheap n cheerful prices for beers n other drinks with special offers during the week. Staff are friendly and welcoming. Not had the food from here so not sure what it like. Comfortable sitting area inside n outside. Atmosphere inside is good with alot people inside n outside. No screen to watch sports which would have been great for match days
Some of the food served leaves much to be desired. Parking can be a problem.

Tasty breakfast & food served by friendly staff in pleasant pub surroundings.
21.5.22
Management should be aware of people coming in & then letting kids sip alcohol from their glasses! Ridiculous & unacceptable.
1.6.22
Staff need to be aware of menu prices & not overcharge customers & blame it on old sales registers!
25.6.22
Unpleasant staff who ask you to look for a clean table if they are asked to clean up a table which you want to use & has been previously used by a diner ! Ridiculous.
5.8.22
Need to ensure that packets of ketchup, mustard & mayonnaise are well stocked!
Not all items on the menu are available either!
7.8.22
Ridiculous that they charge for & serve a so called large breakfast with several items missing from the menu & then throw the butter 🧈 into the middle of food on the plate! Going back & forth from the kitchen to add missing food items & then saying that they have run out of stock!
2.11.22
Items missing from the menu are not properly supplemented by counter staff & kitchen staff like Libby who have got comfortable in such surroundings with others, are cocky, unpleasant & quick to blame the customer for not getting the orders correct! Ridiculous judging by what's happened in the past! Otherwise, tasty breakfast . Car parking problems exist.
27.1.23
Tasty breakfast served in an environment with no heating & the toilets were in a flooded mess!
6.10.23
Tasty food served in an environment where customers seem to vape/smoke , where the toilets need to be kept clean including the tables & apparently drinkers get aggressive & abusive to others!
3.12.23
Tasty food served by friendly staff in a clean environment. However the stinking toilet is a mess with smashed up hand-dryers! Shocking.

Tasty breakfast served by staff in a clean environment
However the toilet flushes don't seem to work properly!
28.10.24
Seems that to ask for tables to be cleaned & cleared up is a crime by surly & unpleasant staff around who expect you to help with the cleaning up & lecture you too as well as not following up on requests like serviettes! Ridiculous.
11.11.24
Tasty fish & 🍟 chips & sides served by friendly staff in a clean environment.
20.2.25
Unpleasant serving staff in Kingsbury who can't be bothered to serve customers Breakfast before the 12 noon deadline when asked as they are busy on their mobile phones & then give misleading information after a few minutes past the noon deadline so not to serve the Big Breakfast deal to customers having wasted time!
With filthy toilets 🚻 as well , this sort of behaviour is unacceptable in the hospitality business like Weatherspoons!
27.3.25
Tasty Beef curry , Garlic naan, Pappadum, samosas & Pilau rice 🍚 served by friendly staff in a clean environment . However, the toilets 🚻 need to be kept clean.
Decent curries. Been here many times. Food is ok for a WSs. Staff behind bar can be a bit slow, but usually happy to help.
