About This Pub
Oh, let me tell you about The Lord Nelson – it's one of those unassuming spots that just warms your heart the moment you walk through the door. From what I've gathered from the reviews, it's got this lovely, relaxed vibe where you can settle in for a great pint of well-kept beer and enjoy a proper chat without any fuss. The staff are brilliant, always up for a natter and making you feel like a regular from day one, and there are fun little quirks like Halloween decorations or novelty items that add a smile to the experience. On the downside, it does seem to fly under the radar sometimes, so it might not be buzzing with energy like some busier pubs, and with no recent buzz online, it could be hard to plan a visit. Still, if you're in the mood for an authentic, down-to-earth local in Barnet, it's definitely worth popping by for a pint and seeing what all the fuss is about – the good far outweighs the quiet moments!

We had a pint after a busy weekend working and had a warm welcome, really well kept beer, and relaxing uplifting music playing. Comfy atmosphere for a chat, just a shame not to see more people making use of this hidden jewel.
This is a cosy pub... I'm loving the Halloween decorations especially the bat (photo) 😅
I met the owners and staff as I completed my work....Really nice people.
The lord Nelson is everything you need or want from your local pub.
I love quirky and the multitude of novelty salt and pepper pots are a great touch.(photos)
Finally It has a large amount of outside seating.
I was there at dusk and the outside lighting makes it look stunning...
This is a beautiful building with great people at the helm.... A real down to earth local boozer.

Was working the bar for 3 years, '96 - '98! Great guv' I had then with his Mrs. Guess the old jukebox is gone!! Had lots of fun with the regular guys, Mel, Derek, Tony, Linda & Ray, my golf buddy! A pub as it should always be. Wonderful memories!! ❤️👍🙏
A true backstreet local which is always great to see. The keg and cask options were a decent selection too and well kept. They were along the lines of what a Young’s hostelry would be serving. Homemade sandwiches also seemed to be on offer in the fridge. The landlady and locals were all very friendly too. The pub was well maintained and spotless to boot.
There is a nice outdoor area at the front, which was nice to relax in when sunny. The beers were very reasonable which does make you wonder why the bigger chains charge a small fortune these days. Worth supporting this local if you’re nearby.
A lovely, friendly local. Great for a relaxing night out with loved ones. Great beers and friendly staff and patrons.
