Metal Clubs and Bars in London

Metal is not only a music gender but a real way of life: fast guitar reefs, ear pounding drums and epic sounds are essential, but the right bar and the right crowd can really turn everything into the perfect experience. If you're looking for the best metal vibes among all bars in London, check out our list of metal music venues.


Sorry, the places listed below don't have online bookings available, but we hope you still find this list useful for your night out!


The Big Red

The Big Red is a vibey rock pub located in Holloway Road, Islington. Live rock/metal music and an eccentric crowd are The Big Red's specialties and the "Wing Night" on Thursdays (15 wings + 5 beers for only £15) is the best time for enjoying a big meal at a low cost.

The Hobgoblin

The Hobgoblin, better known as The Devonshire Arms, is one of Camden's most alternative rock and metal pubs. With its unpretentious interiors, all covered with posters and flyers, and its eccentric staff, 'The Dev' (this is how locals and habituees call it) is the ideal place for metal-heads.

The Dingwalls

The Dingwalls in Camden is a legendary live music bar that has seen some of the worlds biggest bands play here. Foo Fighters, Ramones and Mumford and Sons have all graced the stage, here is where you will find the rising stars and bands that will be big before they hit Radio1. Some metal music nights won't be missing!
