About The Bald Faced Stag
The Bald Faced Stag is a smart gastro pub in the centre of East Finchley, on the High Road, and part of the Urban Pubs & Bars group. It reopened in August 2025 after a refurbishment, emerging as a bright, open-plan space with a three-sided bar, a restaurant area and a garden.
Food is a serious part of the offer, with a kitchen serving elevated pub cooking, and the bar pours a changing range of London independent ales for those who enjoy exploring local brews. The refreshed interior gives it a welcoming, contemporary feel.
The events highlight is the pub quiz, which runs on a regular cadence with themed rounds, well-crafted questions and prizes on the night for winning teams, a bottle of wine for the best team name and a jackpot question. It is a popular fixture that rewards booking a table ahead.
The Stag sits right in the heart of East Finchley, a short walk from East Finchley Underground station on the Northern line, with local buses running along the High Road. Step-free access at the entrance makes it easy to reach for a meal, a quiz or a relaxed drink.
