We had attended a funeral for our cousin and this was the venue for afterwards. The food was excellent and the staff were very efficient.

Went for food and drink only. Prices were reasonable and food was great

Friendly club with a good course. Only downside is the walkers crossing the fairways.

Rating: 5 / 5

Amazing value at just £20. Greens are some of the best I’ve played on in the area. Certainly the best I’ve played on at a public course!! It’s a classic golf course that will penalise bad shots. Members are among the friendliest I’ve come across.

Such a fun time. Unique course worth playing for a good time. Shared with walkers, dogs and horses so need to give yourself 4-5 hrs for 18. Bring snacks and drinks for the course. Great greens, hooked balls are lost forever, played a scramble. Glad we came! No motor carts. Club and pull along carts available. Try their red top beer!

I just love this place. The team is incredible. They are kind, great at what they do and uber professional. I joined the Academy a few months ago and am enjoying every moment of the experience. The only downside is that we have to share the course with the public but the positives well make up for the negatives!

A golf course with a tale of two halves - The first half is a short but tight track with no real stand out holes apart from maybe the 2nd which has a tight and blind tee shot. From home 9 onwards the track really comes into it's own. The fairways and greens were in great condition with only a few dry patches around some areas. I played during a twighlight time and the course was relatively quiet. Would play again.

Visited as a guest at a wedding reception. What a fantastic venue! Great facilities, attentive staff and situated in an idyllic setting with great views over Epping Forest. Highly recommended.

The Club on the top of the hill, has a good view, I like it! Fairways good , greens a little fast.

Rating: 5 / 5

Great course, not too long and not too narrow, but still a decent challenge, especially if you don't get your drive away or if you don't know your yardages with your irons. Greens in decent shape given that we played towards the end of October after a week of rain. Good little hut serving bacon/sausage baps and hot/cold drinks. Great views of the ever growing London skyline from the holes at the highest point of the course (and the club house). Also saw a giant mushroom! 😀

My husband and I had our Indian Pre Wedding event here, and we have nothing but positive feedback for the Hendon Golf Club team. To start, our requirements were met with ease, Malachy and his entire team were beyond accommodating and nothing was too much for them. Our guests were blown away with the event, and I truly believe that this is down to the venue. The views of the golf course from the decking area, which we used for our food service, allowed for guests to relax and enjoy their meal with great views. To the entire team at HGC, we thank you so much. Our event was everything we could've wished for, and more. We'd highly recommend booking the space for any events!

Course is in great condition now and greens are at their usual best. You may even get a glimpse of the baby deer running around the 12th green. Bunkers are back to being nice and sandy

Excellent golf club. Course is very well kept, well done the groundsmen! Fairways are lovely, been well watered so a joy to play even in the hight summer. Greens are very fast and challenging. The club house is very nice with a lovely view of the course. Staff are all very friendly and there is a very good choice of beers and spirits at the bar. Nice changing rooms clean and even a sauna. Really picturesque course couldn't find a fault definitely will be coming here again soon.

Very well maintained place. Lots of greenery. Huge golf course. Falls in North London. Falls in London Borough of Barnet. Closest Tube station is Mill Hill East on the Northern Line. Lots of Golf tournaments, contests conducted here. The 1st floor venue is given on rent for Weddings, parties, anniversary gatherings, wake, reception, Farewell parties, etc. Kids friendly place. Family friendly place also. Toilet facilities are provided on the first floor which are very clean.

I love this place. Easy access, a turn off the A12 dual carriageway. Free parking, snacks available on site. You can book online in minutes and enjoy playing golf. Around 20 holes on the course. Lots of different types of tests to get your competitive juices flowing. Great fun for kids and adults. You will have a great time here. Lovely setting. Salim Patel

Great decorative fun mini golf. Could do with modifying a few of the more simple holes to make it a bit more challenging but overall decent course. Bathrooms were very dirty.

Rating: 5 / 5

Had a really nice time with the family, took just over an hour to complete the course, it provided some light-hearted competition, lots of laughs and a couple of arguments too! Everything you expect from a family outing. My 8 year old said it was like going abroad on holiday with all the palm trees 🌴 luckily for us it was a sunny afternoon 😎 only downside was it is a bit expensive at £40 for 2 adults and 2 children 😀

Very interesting and challenging course. A stone’s throw from Eltham Palace. Pro shop manager was very friendly and accommodating. Clubhouse was beautiful, and had a fascinating history. I even got a private tour by the facilities director, which included an incredible golf memorabilia museum! I ate in the bar area and enjoyed delicious food and friendly service. Pick up the book on the history of the club, one of the oldest in England.

A golf course with a royal status. Wasn't the longest or the most challenging course that I played so far, but it very well maintained. Has a classic club house that server fantastic food. Probably give higher recommend to the restaurant than the course.😅 It's a been there done that course, as it's not easily accessible. (Private course)

It's nice to treat yourself to the elegant and stately surroundings for Sunday Lunch. I did feel, however, that it wasn't as good the first time round. The actual roast beef lunch seemed if was of the pre prepared variety that most pub restaurants do. The beef was passable but may have been not freshly carved. The accompanying vegetables were nothing of note. I hope I'm wrong as it's a good venue to eat, albeit a tad on the pricey side, but that's to be expected.

Rating: 4 / 5

Lovely public run course and well priced. The greens are kept in great condition by the staff. Friendly staff and well stocked golf shop. Good food on offer and bar facilities are available to use. Driving range well priced compared to some other local ranges. Played there several times and it’s a good place to test your skills.

Even in mid autumn this course delivers! Amazing greens and reasonably dry fairways ensure a great round every time! Green fees are very reasonable and the bar prices are spot on!

Rating: 5 / 5

The Stables restaurant has a great menu and breakfast options and good coffee. I will definitely be back to try more of the menu. Nice change from the High Street, definitely worth a try.

Rating: 5 / 5

I have been here a few times to play, and the course is enjoyable to play with very good greens and fairways. I found it really easy to get to and the central line train is a short walk away for people like me who do not have a vehicle. I can also highly recommend the food in the clubhouse, I loved the chicken wrap I got for lunch!

Review of Sunday Lunch at Wanstead Golf Club I recently had the pleasure of enjoying a Sunday lunch at Wanstead Golf Club. The roast dinner featured a generous portion of meat, which was beautifully presented. While the accompanying vegetables offered a fresh touch. It was evident that they use quality ingredients. For dessert, I chose the apple crumble. It had a lovely appearance; the flavours were rich and satisfying. I appreciated the effort in presentation, and it was a nice way to end the meal. The service was friendly and accommodating. The staff made an effort to ensure we were comfortable and attended to, which added a welcoming atmosphere to our visit. Overall, my Sunday lunch at Wanstead Golf Club was a pleasant experience.

Friendly staff, course in decent condition considering the rain we’ve had. Full English breakfast was the best I’ve ever had. Staff very friendly.

Rating: 4 / 5

Nice club in very posh surroundings especially the great number of homes that back onto the course which means many a stray shot can be found in someone's garden! The course is will kept and has a fair variety of holes many of which require good tee shots to prevent being blocked out. Recommended. Only issue was the temporary green for which no yardage was given.

Rating: 4 / 5

Friendly welcome as a visitor. Worth getting there early as the breakfast items are excellent. Course in good conditions all round, on the day we played I felt some mowing was overdue but the excellent greens rolled very true, got out of all bunkers first time so either them or me are very good. Sadly no towels on the Monday we played. Clubhouse modern, light and airy. Halfway houses super ( lovely Jess served us brilliantly). Recommend a visit.

Great club house, bar and restaurant facilities. Friendly, helpful and polite staff. Large open car park.

Rating: 4 / 5

Very friendly staff. I was playing solo that afternoon and one staff member walked me out after I’d said it was my first time there. Course was in good condition considering the time of year and the recent downpours. Some tricky holes and blind shots into some greens. I’ll play it again in summer! £25 for thé round which was okay value for money.

Rating: 5 / 5

Some of the holes are little tricky but really enjoyable. Not so crowded, players are very friendly. Hole#10→11, #17→18 is hard to find. #10→11 These starting points are next to each other. #17→18 After returning to the bridge that you crossed in the middle of # 2, go straight along the road and you will find a short hole that's #18!

Good course that is well maintained. The course is split up by a stream will fairly steep bank on either side. This creates a few interesting holes requiring the ball to clear the wide gap. There are a varieties of old and young trees that are pleasing to the eye. The greens are kept very well and pretty quick. To get to the course you need to cross the north circular road by a footbridge, so there is traffic noise but isn't too bad. There's good practice area including putting green, chipping area and practice nets. The green fee is normally around £20 so is pretty good for the standard of the course.
