Central London pubs with dart boards

Katzenjammers

London Bridge and Borough SE1

Five dart board in a row in a cavernous German beer hall in the middle of London. Well, well. Darts launched here in the second half of 2024, and has proved rather popular – so much so that to play at weekends and on Friday evenings, you need to reserve a table downstairs, and then […]

George & Dragon

Soho and around W1

The board is downstairs in the somewhat dank games room. The throw is a little narrow, so this looks like a fab place to practice.

Lucky Saint

Soho and around W1

So you can take darts out of the pub, and you can’t take the pub out of darts, but can you have darts in a pub which is best known for low & no alcohol? Yes, of course you can. The Lucky Saint opened in 2023 in place of the Mason Arms which never made […]

Horse and Groom

Soho and around W1

A decade after removing their dart board for absolutely no good reason, darts is back at this very traditional Sam Smiths pub. And, I was told in November 2024, that a second board was on the way too. Happy days.

Barley Mow W1

Soho and around W1

There’s a dart board at the back left of the pub, but that doesn’t even tell part of the story as to why this is such a great place to throw darts. Firstly, this is one of the finest pubs in London, and a must for any history-pub lover. It is more than 230 years […]

Three Tuns

Aldgate E1 and City EC3

Hidden away around the corner in an upstairs bar is a very useable dart board. Like a lot of edge-of-City boozers, this pub can get very rammed after work, so being able to get on the board may be something of a challenge. But if you can get on the board, it looks like a […]

Duke of Somerset

Aldgate E1 and City EC3

A dedicated darts area sits on the right of the pub, on the way to the toilets. There was a dart board here some years ago, but nobody every played as the nearby Still and Star took all the limelight. With the S&S boarded up, the Duke is back. And they have a new board […]

Feeney’s

Aldgate E1 and City EC3

A proper London version of a proper Irish pub, with a dart board on the right near the entrance – except on the days that the league team plays, when it is moved to the other side of the bar, where there is a little more room and fewer people doing craic. A stereotypically warm […]

Walrus and The Carpenter

Aldgate E1 and City EC3

A separate downstairs bar contains a very welcoming darts board, albeit surrounded by tables. Caters for league teams in 2024, and generally very welcoming. As the bar is only open some of the time, however, there are limited times when the board is available.

The Gladstone Arms

London Bridge and Borough SE1

A fantastic pub where darts is a low priority, but that shouldn’t stop you going there. The function room upstairs has a (fairly tatty on 2024 visit) board, but there are many better reasons to visit the Glad.

White Horse

Soho and around W1

Surely the first ever wine-led pub which has a dart board, downstairs (there’s draught beer too). I wouldn’t expect to bump into someone you know on the oche, but I’ve had a friendly welcome and if you are into incongruous arrow-throwing this surely tops the pile.

Spots & Stripes

Waterloo SE1

Fundamentally this is a pool hall, and a very welcome one at that, but there is a row of dart boards nestled at the rear, including two tucked around the corner, all with a somewhat low ceiling. Do visit Spots and Stripes. And if you are new to the venue, and it is dark, don’t […]
