The Railway Bell, located on East Barnet Road close to the junction with Victoria Road, was built shortly after New Barnet station opened in August 1850. It became part of the J. D. Wetherspoon pub chain in August 1990. The Railway Bell was extensively refurbished in 2013. The vast majority of Wetherspoons outlets are based in converted shops, banks, post offices and other former retail premises so The Railway Bell is highly unusual in that it is situated in a building which was originally constructed as a public house.
