Great food & drinks in the place with “personality”
The Black Lion is a beautiful period building based in Kilburn, North West London. We combine a bar and restaurant downstairs with stunning features and Grade II listed interior with 14 guesthouse rooms above.
The bar is friendly and popular and directly opposite London’s famous Kiln Theatre. The bar also serves a range of premium dishes.
A must see – when visit London
Perfectly placed for your visit to London, we are very close to both Kilburn Tube Station and Brondesbury Stations. We are also well served by local buses that run from our door step to Marble Arch, Paddington & Victoria.
The night bus from Central London also passes our guesthouse door, making travelling around London when staying with us very easy and your stay more enjoyable.
For food, for drinks, for stay
As a district of London, Kilburn makes for a great stay. It is home to several iconic buildings, and steeped in history dating back to the Roman Times. It is a bustling small town in its own right as being so accessible to central London. There is so much to see and do.
If you are just looking for a retreat for an hour over lunch with friends and colleagues, a romantic meal in outstanding surroundings or indeed you are in the party mood and fancy a drink to get your night started then head to the Black Lion Guesthouse for all this and much, much more.
Guest Reviews
One of London’s Historic Pubs
Directly opposite the Kiln Theatre the Black Lion bar is a comfortable, popular and aesthetically appealing pub. The Black Lion was rebuilt after the great Fire of London. There has always been a pub on this site since the 6th Century. The original pub was thought to have been the haunt of the infamous Dick Turpin on his jaunts to London. After enjoying a few jolly ales he would ride off to rob on the aptly named Shoot Up Hill.
