BRB at the Gate in Haringey - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We had delicious sharer platters for our Sunday roast. Huge portion and well priced for a good roast! Clement was a brilliant server, giving good suggestions when we asked for guidance and giving us good attention and making us feel welcome. We’ll be back!

Really great place to go, bar staff so lovely, let us in from the rain! Food was super and service was great, was going to a gig at ally pally and stopped her for lunch, will definitely return!

A beautiful pub , a friendly atmosphere, young, kind and competent staff members ! Good food and drink selection. A great experience . We shall be back again .

Celebrated my birthday here and had a great time! Found the staff to be attentive and helpful, no food delays, nachos were top notcho 🥰

We really had a great experience in Starting Gate on many occasions. Their food is so good and the service is always on spot. We were served by amazing waitress Magy that was lovely and she offered us many good suggestions from drink selection and vegetarian options. We like to come back every time.

Absolutely no clue how to make a simple aperol spritz and very unprofessional bartender. This place was my fav in this area but it’s going down…

I came for a quiet meal and found the staff to be friendly, which was a positive start. However, the food did not meet expectations. The lamb rump was very small, and the potatoes and vegetables were cold. It's a shame, as I was really looking forward to enjoying my meal.

Great to see a big improvement in the food quality, very enjoyable. Safia provided some of the best service I've had in London.

Lovely food, drinks range and atmosphere, staff were very friendly and welcoming. Would definitely visit again 5 stars

Have had great visits to this pub recently with both family and small children, as well as with just for drinks. Excellent service! Aytun is so welcoming and wonderful. Great menu for everyone, great food.

The portion was generous and really tasty. The staff (particularly Aytun) were attentive, kind and helpful. It’s been a while since I’ve eaten at The Starting Gate but I will be coming back much more often now. The fish and chips were exactly as I like them.

Great place for a meal and drink. Lovely pub, very friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. We all had a meal and agreed the food was piping hot and very tasty. Would highly recommend coming here for quality and value.

A big shoutout to Melissa the waitress, she went above and beyond when my family that don’t speak English couldn’t decide between the different beers and she came with some tasting ! Thank you so much for your patience and attentive service !! 5 stars!

We took my son and his girlfriend here for a drink on Saturday 17/2.We bought our drinks at the bar and ordered 2 bowls of chips at the bar (£5 ea). We carried our drinks to the table. The chips took a long time to arrive and the bowls were small and not full, poor considering the price! One bowl of chips was just warm. The drinks were expensive even by London standards- £6.40 for a pint of London Pride (usually £5.20ish). The G & T was £12.25. Plus on top of this we were charged £4.27 service charge. Our total bill was £46.97 for 2 pints of beer, 1 pint of cider and 1 G & T.plus two small bowls of chips! Shame, we used to pop in regularly but will go elsewhere now. It’s a nice pub inside except for the loos which definitely need a good clean and refresh. Disappointing as this pub has so much potential.

Sophie was brilliant .She couldn't do enough for us, the 4 of us ageing golfers use this venue as a regular meeting place and Sophie is always pleased to see us

Solid pub food, although they'd run out of a couple of vegetarian options so our choice were limited. Our server, Matilda, was fantastic - warm and attentive.

Really good roast and service was friendly and efficient. Went ahead of going to the snooker at Ally Pally and would definitely go again if in the area.

A very nice looking pub with good beer and food. Unfortunately let down by poorly train staff and gross toilets that need a clean and an upgrade. The pub was busy due to an event at ally pally and so there were a lot of bar staff. However it still took ages to get served as they were all stood around chatting. The lady with the red hair was good but the rest need to get focused.

We had a lovely meal and drinks with very friendly staff however my only criticism would be how very cold it was inside the pub even though the radiators were on we were still chilly and kept our coats on. But when the weather is warmer I expect it’s a perfect little pub to have drinks and food.

Food was very nice and good selection of drinks. Deducted one star for service as it was a bit difficult getting the attention of staff (even though they were not busy) and stock levels, which they blamed on a busy lunch period due to the Masters Snooker taking place nearby at Alexandra Palace. We were disappointed that they had run out of all Sunday roasts and when we ordered dessert, it came with a thimble sized portion of custard which they also had apparently run out of....

Tolles Starting Gate vorm Ally Pally. Wir sind vor jeder Session hier!!!! Immer Party hier!!! Nächstes Jahr wieder!!!

Class, pure class music was great. Well priced. Great afyer the darts. One of the best north london boozers

Great spot. Really friendly. Good vibe. A good place to meet friends, good music with a wide range of beers

Delightful pub with a stunning ambience, their drinks were to die for. I was highly impressed. You will be too

Best spot in town, even in a busy day before the darts. Fast service, nice drinks and the atmosphere is fantastic

Best pub in north I came here after a convert and loved it. They were very accommodating and friendly. I’d recommend for my friends

Had dinner and drinks for three people. The food was very good( we had the pie, schnitzel and the hake ) . Good wine selection , hand pump beers were ok , however no porter or stouts which is a shame in winter. The service...

I enter red the pub to a glamorous 360 bar, and also can I add very clean. The staff were so friendly and they were very attentive, the food took a short while however it was busy and this was communicated to me upon ordering....

Great drinks and vibes, lively and friendly staff. Highly recommend. My mate bj loves it here and we took his advice what an unbelievable night

This spot is great for a night out with friends, for drinks and even dinner. I went in with a group of friends and was served by a young girl named Melissa, service was amazing. Will definitely be returning.

Amazing experience. Very good service. Would recommend to families and couples for weekends and weekdays

Great environment and beautiful decor. The service was amazing and food was lovely. We were a mixed table of vegetarians, vegans and meat eaters and there were good options for all. All staff were fab, we will definitely be visiting again.

It was a really fun night the bar and drinks were spectacular and was served by a very polite women named agii

Me and my girl went there few times for drinks. The pub has a really cool atmosphere and amazing looks. We often see polish bartender with red hair, I believe her name is Aga. She’s the best, alway recommending the best drinks and drafts and...

The staff were very polite and accommodating. Food was lovely and fast service for food + drink. Worth the money. Aggie, our waitress, was lovely :)

Great pub , fab location , lovely atmosphere, thanks to Aggy for looking after us and recommending some nice drinks .

Starting gate has been my local pub for 20 years and I regularly pop in for a drink or bite to eat. Have recently started making most of the burger deal on Wednesdays - getting a free pint, with the option of most of their...

Nice pub near Ally Pally, perfect to visit before/after gigs. Good selection of beers. Will have to return to try food as menu looks great. Staff were all lovely, professional and efficient despite being very busy at the time. Served by Izzy who’s great work...

We spent twenty minutes stood at the bar (which wasn’t particularly busy) getting ignored by the staff. One bar man served someone they obviously knew who was stood next to me (who arrived at the bar after us) and once giving them their drink they...

Excellent food and friendly staff. Dog friendly so a great place to stop before or after a walk in the park. The menu is excellent for a traditional menu lover like my husband - the chicken & ham hock pie was his favourite and I...

This is another pub I have utilised on many occasions over the years but somehow amazingly never got round to reviewing it on Trip Advisor. It’s a fine Victorian corner pub, both inside and outside, and as a frequent visitor to the Palace I utilise...

Lovely atmosphere, with incredibly friendly staff. A wonderful menu and I adore the fact that it’s so dog friendly - whenever I bring my dog there is always water bowls and treats a plenty! I’ve brought numerous friends here and would recommend to anyone looking...

This is a great pub, food and drink is very high quality. The staff are also very friendly and provide great service, will be back

We love the starting gate, we come here every Sunday evening for a little date night and always enjoy ourselves!

Came here to meet a friend for a catch up, decided to have a bite to eat whilst there. Really enjoyed the fish and chips

On my last visit the food was fairly average, however was much better when we visited on Sunday! The roast were delicious! The staff told us they had new chefs and we could tell!

Very much a child friendly pub, staff very helpful and nice, good food menu for children and good soft drink options

The best local you could have, the staff are always friendly, the beer is always great, the food is always delicious

Made a visit for a Sunday roast after visiting the antiques fair at alexandra palace.We have been here once before a few years ago and really enjoyed it but this time it was not of the charts.First the beer was great no complaints.We ordered roast...

I had the loveliest time at this pub. The barwoman, think her name was Issy, was lovely and recommended me a lovely pale ale. Will come again and recommend to all my friends!

Had a great time! Thanks to Aggie for taking care of us all night and topping up our drinks, will be back.

Food was delicious but service was really slow and the tables, chairs and floor were visibly dirty. Lots and lots of dead flies on the window sill next to us.....I hope the kitchen was a but cleaner!

Very comfortable surroundings. Helpful staff. The food was delicious. Great pub for hanging out with friends as it’s not too noisy so you can chat. Very convenient stop-off on way to Ally Pally.

Check in here every time on my way back from moorfields eye hospital. Always lovely friendly staff and service. But today from 4.45 pm LOUD music was streamed. Asked if it could be turned down but it continued so had to leave. I’m not the...

Had a fantastic time here the other night at my mates bday party. Lovely service and great food, will be back

It was my friend’s idea to go here and it was great! Such a kind and friendly staff, great atmosphere; special thanks for Justyna for recommending the best drinks!

We stopped in here after an afternoon at go ape looking for a bite to eat. Staff were very accommodating, food and drink were great

Banging staff and banging drinks, we had a great time here after a knees up at the palace, good to see staff having good crack

Really nice atmosphere and friendly staff, yet to try food but I will be back, thanks Justyna for recommendations

Dinner with friends. Duck salad. Salad tasted good but v v small portion. Duck was tasteless hard and over cooked. Barmaid v unwelcoming .

Lovely food, good communication about the reservation. Had a big table to ourselves, was nice and quiet for the three young kids. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Will definitely be back! Thanks so much for a wonderful afternoon.

Absolutely amazing food and great service! We booked a table of 10, the interior was lovely and the food was immense. The kids loved their little colouring they did and their portions were very generous!

Called in for a bite and a pint before an event at Alexandra Park Cricket Club. Good choice of beer, friendly staff, excellent food. Thoroughly recommended.

I’ve been frequenting this pub for 30 years and is ideal for a family evening out and great location for drinks before the big hill climb up to a gig at Ally Pally. Food menu is varied for all tastes. Bar staff very friendly especially...

Visited the starting gate yesterday to have some food and a drink before a gig at Ally Pally. My partner ordered a round of two drinks which came to £16.50 which was eye watering but expected at a pub so close to the station. The...

Enjoyed Mother's Day lunch at the Starting Gate, friendly staff, good food and great atmosphere, lovely setting in an old pub, I enjoyed their nut roast and the roast potatoes and cauliflower cheese were delicious, would definitely recommend and go again

Three of us went for dinner . Two of us had the bangers and mash and one had the pork belly. For dessert we the had the eton mess . All the food was excellent . The service throughout the evening was very good ....

We often stop by on a Wednesday when they have their burger and drink offer. Burger selection is great, my personal favourite being the Bali burger!

Really enjoyed the selection of craft beer they had available on tap, also the staff very knowledgeable of the beers

We got together as a family and headed out for Sunday roast recently, the team were very pleasant from arrival and managed to find us a table even though it was busy. Told a 40 minute wait, but actually came before then. Food was really...

Sunday lunch in this lovely traditional Victorian interior. Buzzy atmosphere but not loud nor overcrowded. Friendly and highly efficient service. Good quality, well-cooked food at reasonable prices. Some menu choices not available at 1:30 and no real ale due to delivery failure. Despite this, a...

Nice pub and good food, but poor service. Table of four ordered a starter to share (Nachos) and a main course each, unfortunately the starter never arrived as the waitress forgot to enter it into the system. One of the mains (Steak & Ale Pie)...

Came here for Sunday dinner with my family, the food was really nice and the service was also really nice

Me and my partner came here to celebrate my promotion at work. The building is beautiful inside, slightly dated outside. The staff were lovely throughout, food and drink was good too

Used to love this pub but sadly not a great experience. Went on Boxing Day for a family meal, food took ages to come despite not being very busy, and when it came it was pretty awful. Hope the team can pull it back to...

Definitely the best pub in the area, always stop in for a pint or two on my way home from work. Foods decent too

Me and my partner came in here for dinner. We both had fish and chipss, really well made and enjoyed

We always stop in here every year on our way to darts, staff are always a laugh and quick to serve a pint. Loving the tunes they setup this year!

DUH DER DER DER DER DER DUH DUH DUH Best thing ever walking in and hearing the classic Darts tunes to get us amped up ready to go up to Ally Pally! Beer's are great too!

Didn't look like much when we got off the station with the scaffolding outside, but once you get inside it's just wow Staff were lovely, and had a nice meal here

Went out with some friends for the first time in a long time. Had never been here before, as I don't like going to bars or restaurants, but one of the friends had and said I would like it. And I really did. Great atmosphere,...

Booked for a group before going to Alexandra Palace. I have frequented this pub on a number of occasions over the past 5 years of living in north London. Booked a table for 4:30. On arrival, we weren't able to be seated. We were then...

I have been twice for their Sunday roast, I'd definitely recommend it! The interior of the place is like an authentic, old-school British pub, and they also have a small outdoor area to use in the summer. Overall, it's good value for money!

Great place, great staff special mention to Aggie for amazing customer service, very friendly! Will definitely be returning

I came here for a quiz evening on Monday. It was a very pleasant experience. A young lady named Aggie served me for the evening and was just wonderful. She had a lot of knowledge about her drinks and made some really great recommendations. She...

aggie was so helpful today really recommend the atmosphere was really nice in there , very welcoming

Visited The Starting Gate earlier this month having had it recommended by a friend. The burger was delicious and we were served by Aggie who was welcoming and lovely! Would highly recommend!

Aggy was very kind and did amazing in what she does! Very lovely young Lady with great passion. Always making sure we was good with our food and drinks! Would definitely be coming by again! Thanks agi for the service! Well deserved!

Had a lovely time and received amazing customer service by Aggie who was very welcoming, accommodating and professional.

Stopped in on my way home from work, staff were very accommodating and helpful with recommendations. Had the Salt Citra and Two Tribes Metro, both great tasting beers
