Welcome to The Bountiful Cow

Holborn's hidden gem, The Bountiful Cow is an independent, family-run bar with a delicious steak oriented lunch & dinner menu.

We opened doors in 2005 and, since then, The Bountiful Cow has been firmly established as favourite amongst the locals. We love our neighbours and for the last fifteen years we have sourced all our beef from our local butchers at Smithfield Market (they still celebrate their annual Christmas Party with us today!)

We are one of the 24 AA-recommended pubs in London chosen for their atmosphere, good beer and great food.

Tuesday to Friday: 12pm - 11pm

Saturday: 5pm - 11pm

Sunday and Monday: closed

Kitchen open until 9.30pm

“Really tasty, good quality meat ... A gem tucked away from the bright lights”

“I have been eating here for a number of years now. The food is excellent, you will not often get a better steak anywhere else. The location is great. Relaxed atmosphere and very good service. Can’t fault it”

— Nick F, Trip Advisor

“Small intimate pub type venue. Very friendly and welcoming. Even offered me some glasses to read the menu as I’d forgotten mine. Steak was as good as I’ve had anywhere and probably better than most! Would visit again!”
