Pub Home & What's On
The Gate Northwood
The Gate Ember Inn is one of the best real ale pubs in Northwood. If you are looking for a pub, restaurant or bar where grown ups enjoy drinking & eating out in Middlesex, around Northwood, Rickmansworth, Northwood or Watford, then give us a try.
We regularly update our choice of cask ales and offer an excellent range of affordable wines. All our drinks complement our pub food menu that's packed with freshly prepared, seasonal and traditional pub & restaurant favourites - including lighter summer dishes.
We're great for a quick beer or a special treat. Unwind with a drink and a meal in a pub that's about relaxing conversation, not thumping music. Plus we're so dedicated to cask ale you can try before you buy and even ask to have your favourite put on at the bar!
