About This Pub
Ah, The Shawl Harrow – it's one of those unassuming neighbourhood gems that you stumble upon and end up returning to for its charm. From what I've gathered from the reviews, the staff really go the extra mile to make everyone feel welcome, and at prices like £4.20 for a pint, it's easy to see why folks keep coming back. The atmosphere is spot on, especially if you're a football fan; they show all the big games on multiple screens, creating that lively, communal buzz that's hard to beat. Plus, with the option to bring in outside food and a wee outdoor area for a breather, it's got that homely touch. On the flip side, it's a small place, so it can get a bit cosy when it's packed, and not having any food on offer means you might have to pop out for a bite. Still, with its solid 4.3 rating overall, it's clear this pub's doing a lot right for those laid-back evenings out. If you're in South Harrow and fancy a pint without the fuss, I'd say give it a go – it's got that authentic local feel that's becoming rarer these days.
Pros and Cons
Pros
-
The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home as soon as you walk in.
-
Prices are spot on for a pint – like that £4.20 for Guinness, which feels like great value these days.
-
It's got a brilliant atmosphere, especially on football days with all the Irish and Premier League games on big screens – perfect for a bit of craic with mates.
-
You can bring in your own food from nearby places, which is handy if you're peckish but don't fancy cooking.
-
There's a cosy outdoor seating area with heaters, ideal for a smoke or just enjoying a drink al fresco when the weather's playing ball.
Cons
-
It's a bit on the small side, so it can feel a tad cramped if it gets busy, especially during match days.
-
They don't serve any food on-site, which might be a downside if you're after a proper meal with your pint.
-
With only a few recent reviews, it seems like things have been a bit quiet lately, and the latest one wasn't glowing.
-
As a local spot, it might not have the biggest selection of drinks or entertainment, so if you're after something more varied, you might need to look elsewhere.

Small, friendly pub in South Harrow. Staff are friendly and polite. Prices are good. You can bring in outside food. A small outdoor seating area is available.
I do like a pub where I walked in as a stranger and was immediately offered free food. Only £4.20 for a pint of Guinness - what’s not to like?
Great little irish themed bar is easy accessibility on public transport, good old craic on football days.... all irish and premier football leagues shown on multiple big screens. Great atmosphere, love this wee place
