About The Good Home Howick

A pub with a long history in Howick Village, on the corner of Picton Street and Uxbridge Road, that has been redesigned as Good Home Howick. It was the Prospect of Howick before, and the building started life as the Marine Hotel in 1906. The room is set up as several spaces: a den area, a library with a quiet nook, a private dining room for up to six people that the website says families like, and a sun-drenched leafy courtyard. The bar has more than ten beers and ciders on tap, a curated wine list, and non-alcoholic drinks. The kitchen cooks classic home-style food with a modern twist, and the menu changes with the seasons, with daily specials to ask about. The upstairs rooms were renovated in 2019 and there are 12 of them.

Live music runs on Friday nights, with afternoon music on summer Sundays. The pub hosts an annual Point to Pub fun run and a Blue Ribbon breakfast, and it runs buses to concerts. For a long lunch or an after-work drink in Howick Village, the courtyard and the library nook give two different ways to stay.
