One of the best bars in the world!!! Incredible music and great people. No attitude!!! Miss it!!
There is a group of attending every Monday for life drawing and it a really nice experience each week! The staff are really friendly and there is a great selection of drinks at the bar. We often spend some time in the main bar after our session finishes to enjoy whatever entertainment they have on. Highly recommend this place!
Really good buffalo chicken wings - quite possibly the best in London alongside Orange Buffalo. Which is ironic given the guys who make the wings at Boogaloo have a kitchen right next to that of Orange Buffalo off Brick Lane! Though the wings here are different - not saying these guys are copy cats!
Good heat, very crispy, quite meaty for a British wing, excellent sauce and very good blue cheese sauce. Only downside is no wipe!
Really genuine rock n roll little pub. Awesome to go dancing or hang out in the beer garden. Can get a little overcrowded on weekend and you might not be let in....
Super friendly & welcoming & the music was just wonderful. Dancing feets! Totes thumbs up from this girl from the North. X
Came here to watch Georgy DJ! Had a great night! Danced the night away with my husband all the way from California! Definitely will come back here if and when we visit again. Great bartenders and great environment. Thanks!!
Fantastic and atmospheric gem. A great place for celebrating Mark Waddell's (Maximus) book launch. Brilliant atmosphere.�
Have visited the Boogaloo a couple of times now, most recently last night to see Cronin play. Beautiful place with lovely atmosphere. Music was brilliant and the staff were jolly and efficient. Highly Recommend
Good for a drink or two ;-), will come back ;-)
A few weeks ago I was invited to see a few bands playing at The Boogaloo. The magnificent, majestic atmosphere brought me back in time a couple of years; the lovely music reflected The Boogaloo's style and enlightened it in many ways. My favourite decorative elements are the quotes written across the walls, they really engaged me and attracted my attention; as well as the eye-catching jukebox and retro lights. Unfortunately, I did not really get to eat anything as I had already eaten something before going there; the event was late at night.
Not your ever day pub. Quite a surprise to find out in Highgate. Big rocker vibe for those of us who remember our youth. Also Sunday afternoons are THE BEST!
The Boogaloo! A brilliant pub for all occasions! With a cute leafy beer garden and private room hire options. It’s a beautifully classic pub with superb staff and a well stocked bar. Foods good too. We will be back! 💕
What a great atmosphere! Went to a comedy night and really enjoyed the intimate space out the back next to the beer garden. The whole place felt friendly and lived in, you could feel people have been having fun there for decades.
Dog friendly pub, quite busy as there was a birthday party, great playlist.
A great little pub. Nice and simple with cool decor and a good feel. I've been to the comedy night here and that was great fun. A great pub to stop off in for a quick drink or spend the whole day there.
It was cool and relaxing.
I didn't have food there but was able to order from outside which I found awesome.
The drinks were as they should be, so cool by me !
Will return there since in around the corner 😉
Great place for live music! Just be careful with your drinks as the staff picks them up half-full from the tables while you're not watching. Had to chase my wife's drink from the basket full of others ;)
Great live music, the best quality. Good food too. Only request- think there needs to be some fans in there or some open windows. When it's a full house in the summer, hard to breathe!
The music here was 10/10! It's hard to find somewhere with a DJ that plays bangers only, they played an array of 60s/70s/80s club classics including Chaka Khan, ABBA, Luther Vandross etc. Haven't been somewhere with such good music in a while, I will be going back
Nice pub with a outdoor area. Didn't eat here so I couldn't say anything about that, but a cozy place for a pint.. just a cross the street from the Highgate tubestation.
The Boogaloo, 8.7/10
We had to walk up Highgate hill to get here. When you drink as many beers as us, that's no easy feat. Google maps said it would take 15 mins. Took us an hour. Not including stops. If you're coming this way, get the bus.
Its just around the corner from Highgate tube station. Has a no South Londoners allowed sign on the door. Soon as we entered we were bought a round by a northlondonpints fan. We knew we’d come to the right place.
Great vibes in a packed out beer garden. Dogs roaming around the place. Rock n Roll aesthetic. Windows forged out of the heart of a dying star by Stevie Windows himself. This place has it all.
We did have an encounter with a very famous person in here. Name rhymes with Shlonny Shlepp. Any guesses? Was also dressed in full pirate gear. And people called him Captain Jack. Don’t believe us? Check his insta. You’re about to feel really silly.
He charged over to us and began to throttle Stevie Windows while screaming his name at the top of his lungs. Everyone looked at us to step in. But we were really enjoying our beers in the sun and wanted to see how it played out.
Luckily for Stevie, he was saved by an unlikely hero. It was the Pigeon crackhead from Kentish Town. Known to his friends simply as Pigeonman. He set his Pigeons upon Depp and they flew him back to Davey Jones Locker.
Pigeonman scootered off down Highgate hill as mysteriously as he entered. What a man. Should stay off the crack though.

Music + Foods + photos + atmosphere = Everything is wonderful.
Great Location 👍
Northern line + many bus.s
If you're looking for a classic music bar experience then look no further than The Boogaloo, from the moment we walked in the atmosphere was awesome and the staff friendly, be sure to tune into their radio station too, great place to pop in and return to again and again!
Fantastic burgers, staff are really friendly and a GREAT quiz! Can’t wait to come back for some comedy
Arrived with my arm in a sling, no table booking and the place was already full, the bar staff within minutes of our arrival magicked us a table near the band and ensured we had back supporting seats. Excellent! Liam Grundy band performing, superb. A wonderful experience at a wonderful venue.
