The Gate in Northwood has long been established as more than just a local landmark; it is a premier destination for the biking community in Middlesex and beyond. Situated on the Rickmansworth Road (A404), London, this Ember Inns pub successfully balances the charm of a traditional British local with a deep-rooted passion for petrol-head culture, making The Gate an essential waypoint for any rider navigating the leafy corridors between London and the Chilterns.
For those on two wheels, the suitability of a venue often comes down to the practicalities. The Gate excels here, offering features that cater specifically to the needs of the modern motorcyclist:
Generous Hard-Standing Parking: Forget the anxiety of sinking a side-stand into soft grass or loose gravel. The Gate provides ample, level, and solid parking areas, ensuring bikes remain secure and stable while owners relax inside.
The Ultimate “Biker” Garden: The pub boasts an expansive outdoor area. This is a massive draw for riders who prefer to keep their pride and joy within sight. The large communal tables are perfect for groups to de-gear and spread out their helmets and jackets without feeling cramped.
A Warm Welcome for Leathers: There is no “suits-only” atmosphere here. The staff at The Gate are famously welcoming to the biking fraternity, maintaining a relaxed environment where a set of leathers is just as common as a Sunday roast.
The reputation of The Gate is truly cemented during its regular bike nights. These events transform the car park into a shimmering gallery of engineering, featuring everything from vintage British classics and custom chops to the latest Italian superbikes.
These meets aren’t just about the machines; they are about the people. The pub acts as a social hub where riders swap technical advice, plan weekend tours, and enjoy high-quality pub “scran”—from stacked burgers to sharing platters. By consistently hosting these inclusive events, it has earned its place as the spiritual home of motorcycling in Northwood.
