About Sportsmans
An independent pub on Station Road near Willesden Junction, built around pool, darts and a no-frills drinking room rather than food or gastropub styling.
The Sportsmans sits on Station Road close to Willesden Junction, in the pocket of Harlesden that shades into the railway lands around the junction's five platforms. It keeps things plain: a pool table takes centre stage, there's a dartboard in the corner, and the pub trades on being a reliable, unpretentious stop for a pint rather than chasing a food menu or a craft beer list. It is independently run, one of a dwindling number of Harlesden pubs that has resisted both closure and conversion into a bar-restaurant, and it draws its custom mostly from the immediate streets around the station.
