ABOUT THE PUB

The Sir Colin Campbell is an independent, modern Irish pub situated at 264–266 Kilburn High Road, operated by descendants of Irish émigrés. A fixture on Kilburn High Road since the late 19th century, the pub occupies a late-Victorian three-storey building featuring distinctive inter-war interior fittings—including a central island bar, original wooden panelling, leaded glass windows, and a cast-iron fireplace—preserving its historic charm within a contemporary setting.
Our mission is “a little bit of Irish hospitality in the heart of London”, reflecting a forward-thinking ethos that blends tradition with modern inclusivity. We run weekly events, including a pub quiz every Wednesday evening from 8 pm, and host live traditional Irish music sessions every Saturday and Sunday night, making us one of only a few London venues to feature year-round “trad” bands.
We take pride in being LGBTQI+ friendly—“tá fáilte roimh chách” (“all are welcome”)—with a venue designed as a safe, inclusive space for everyone. Our customers range from regular neighbourhood faces to visitors seeking warm hospitality or live music.
Facilities include two main bars, two large screens broadcasting major sporting fixtures (Sky Sports, TNT Sports and the GAA), a Pieminister pie menu exclusive in Kilburn, a pizza offering, and a highly rated 5/5 food hygiene rating from the Food Standards Agency. The upstairs area is available for private hires, meetings, and event viewing. The pub also allows vaping indoors (in support of smoking cessation), operates a CCTV-monitored, professional environment, and participates in Challenge 25 and the Ask Angela scheme.

• Serve drinks efficiently and courteously across all opening hours.
• Prepare and serve simple food offerings (e.g. pizzas), maintaining hygiene standards.
• Promote and uphold the pub as an LGBTQI+ safe, friendly space.
• Collaborate with the General Manager and full‑time colleague to plan rotas, with flexibility to work alongside 4–6 part‑time staff depending on demand.
• Offer front‑of‑house leadership, customer interaction, and contribute to opening/closing duties.
• Attend essential training (e.g. food hygiene, first aid), as required or agreed.
