McCafferty’s Bar in Harrow

Ah, McCafferty’s Bar – it's one of those places that just warms your heart the moment you step in, with its authentic Irish charm and that unmistakable pub feel in the heart of North Harrow. I've got to say, the live music really steals the show; it's not just background noise, it's the heartbeat of the place, blending modern bands with traditional Irish melodies that get everyone tapping their feet and joining in. Pair that with the screens everywhere for live sports, and you've got a winner for game days or casual meet-ups with mates. The Guinness is poured to perfection, especially at that cheeky weekday price, and the staff are absolute gems – friendly as can be, making you feel like a regular from the get-go. That spacious outdoor area is a real bonus on sunny days, giving you space to relax without feeling cramped. But, let's keep it real, it's not without its downsides. No food on offer means you might have to pop out for a bite or bring something in, which is handy but not ideal if you're after a seamless night out. And while it's fabulous early on, things can turn a bit chaotic later with the crowds, so if you're seeking a peaceful pint, you might want to time your visit just right. Overall, it's a solid spot for a laugh and some quality time, especially if you're up for the lively atmosphere – I'd definitely recommend giving it a go for a balanced pub experience in London.
