Masons Arms, Kensal Rise

Congratulations to the Masons Arms on getting to the finals of the Great British Pub Awards. Along with The Island on College Road, the Masons Arms has really improved the area sinbce they were done up a few years ago.

The old Brent Labour Party office used to be in what is now Gracelans Yard. I remember going into what was then called the Buccaneer with our newly elected MP Dawn Butler. As we were chatting in the lower part of the pub, she noticed that there was some dogshit on the floor. Obviously, I know how to impress a girl.

I should make clear that this was before the new management took over and transformed it into the The Island. If anything it is now a bit too upmarket, at least when it comes to prices.
