Watch the World Go by 
Look up from Leicester square and you'll find this subtle gem. The nightclub is actually very decent and the crowd is always good looking and having fun. But the best time, is an afternoon drink on the balcony. You can spend hours up there just watching everybody go about their lives.

Breakfast 
I just enjoy coming here for breakfast. Good food and right by the main drag.. so you can relax watch the locals wandering outside trying to catch a bus. Fresh decor which is nice for Cricklewood.

Review of The Good Ship

Not quite there 
This place tries hard but I havent been there on a good night yet. They have a great big screen for sport.. but the comedy nights are lack-lustre and theres a hollow, stale vibe to the place. Maybe its just me. Worth a few tries.

Dive 
Never have I seen a more rag-tag bunch of party goers in my life. This place is a hive of International scum. The boys are sweaty and pervy and the girl seem to like it. You need to be well drunk to enjoy a night here. I have to say though, the staff are awesome and its great just for a laugh

Review of North London Tavern

Cool joint 
I like it here. Probably the first choice barin Kilburn. Its small the crowd is cool and the staff are pretty trendy. Good choice of beers and nice outdoor seating for summer. Start a night here. Unfortunately, its an early closer.

Good local 
Despite the riff raff outside this bar, inside is a mix of normal people having fun. The back room is great for chilling out in on the couches. The staff are fast and theres often sport on the big screen. A top option if for some reason youre out in Kilburn

Surprisingly good 
For the average prices... I'm always impressed by the place. The service varies.. but the decor makes you feel highly important. Lovely grand piano, hanging chandeliers.. and wide marble floors with ample seating. The food is good and overall it makes an impressive setting for a business lunch

Eat cake 
Very French and very good. A work mate bought me a "custard square" from here... and it was honestly the best. Do the takeaway from the bakery.. the sit down eating is crowded and theres always a long wait. Menu isnt very inspiring. Just enjoy the cakes.

Review of The Small and Beautiful

Local favourite 
Dare I say this place is almost worth making a trip to awful Kilburn for. Its so cheap, especially before 7pm.. and the quality of the food is great. Its warm cosy and an absolute oasis on the horrific high road. Try the mussels and the duck pastry. The staff are local and friendly. Go here for a date or with a small group

Review of The Elk In The Woods

Bit poncy 
A few too many snobs here for my liking... but the food was inexpensive and the area and cobbled streets around the restaurant make it pretty special. Decor cool too.
