What is the Trinity Arms in Brixton?

It is a Young's pub on Trinity Gardens, a quiet square a couple of minutes from Brixton station. It does real ale, cocktails, all-day food and famous Sunday roasts, with a large beer garden, a fire pit and sports on the TV. It is also known as the historic base of the Brixton Superleague darts team.

Does the Trinity Arms have a dart board?

Historically yes: it was the home of the Brixton Superleague darts team. But the area's league darts scene has faded and the pub's current listings do not mention a board, so we could not confirm one is set up today. Call the bar on 020 7274 4544 to check before you visit for darts.

Is it free to play darts at the Trinity Arms?

It is a free-to-enter pub with no admission charge, so a pub dart board would normally be free to use. Because we could not confirm a board is currently in place, ask at the bar when you arrive.

Do you need to book the Trinity Arms?

No, you can walk in to drink or watch the sport. Booking is only really worth it for food, especially a table for Sunday roast, which fills up.

What are the Trinity Arms opening hours?

Monday to Thursday 11am to 11pm, Friday and Saturday 11am to midnight, and Sunday 11am to 11pm. The kitchen serves daily from noon to 9:30pm.

What is the nearest station to the Trinity Arms?

Brixton, about a two-minute walk. It is on the Victoria line and National Rail, so it is a quick trip from central London.

Trinity Arms: Darts in Brixton, London

FreeWalk-inYoung's pubBeer gardenSunday roastsSports TV

The Trinity Arms is a Young's pub tucked onto a quiet square in Brixton, a couple of minutes' walk from the tube. It is a proper local: real ale on the bar, a real fire in winter, a big beer garden with a fire pit out back, and sports on the TV. The kitchen runs all day, with brunch, pub classics and roasts that the regulars rate.

For darts players, the draw here is history. This was the home base of the Brixton Superleague darts team, and the pub still carries that reputation. Worth knowing before you turn up: the old league darts scene around Brixton has faded, and we could not confirm a board is currently set up, so call ahead or ask at the bar if a game of arrows is the main plan.

The darts scene here

Trinity Arms earned its place on the Brixton darts map as the historic base of the Brixton Superleague team. That heritage is real, but it is the part to treat with care. Local write-ups about Brixton's darts pubs note that the old league teams have largely faded out across the area, and none of the pub's current listings (Young's own page, CAMRA, the venue's own facilities) mention a dart board today. So come for the pub first and the darts second. If a frame of 501 is the whole point of your visit, ring the bar on 020 7274 4544 and check a board is in before you head down.

Good to know

This is a free-to-enter Young's local, no booking needed to drink or to watch the sport, though tables for roasts get busy on a Sunday. The kitchen serves daily from noon to 9:30pm: brunch, pub classics and the well-regarded Sunday roasts (21-day beef, pork belly, a mushroom Wellington for the veggies). There is real ale, cocktails, a real fire for the cold months and a large beer garden with a fire pit out the back. It is dog-friendly and family-friendly, with seating downstairs and upstairs.

Getting there

Trinity Arms sits on Trinity Gardens, a leafy square just off the main Brixton drag in SW9. It is roughly a two-minute walk from Brixton station, served by the Victoria line and National Rail from Victoria, so it is an easy hop from central London. Once you are on the square it feels a step removed from the Brixton Road rush, which is part of the appeal. Plenty of buses run along nearby Brixton Hill and Acre Lane if the tube is not your route.
