Mango Landing, Brixtonback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Good atmosphere. Very family freindly in the daytime. Food is great, particularly the BBQ food in the summer. It seemed expensive to me when I saw the menu, but when I saw the food I got more than my money's worth.
Go!

It's nicer than you'd think. Lovely mad landlady plus what everyone else here's saying.

Great place is a great venue for birthday parties-full of big-chin locals with small hands. I go there the whole time. ra

This place seems far more successful than its former incarnation, Babushka's. It would have survived on a busy street, but it was too timid to survive on the corner of a block of housing estates.
Mango Landin' however manages to balance nightlife and families quite well. It's packed out on the weekends, with varied DJs and I've witnessed Tango lessons on a weekdays in there. They have a veg stall on the weekend, and seems to be very family friendly (there's always kids tearing around on the weekend).
Overall a nice little pub, no attitude, no bouncers, no charge to get in, and little eccentricity.

i used to like babushka quite a lot - this place isn't too bad, cheap and nice garden, but there's a bit of a funny smell to it! (and i mean an actual smell, i'm not being metaphorical)

Mango Landing has squatted in the former resting place of Baboushka's, the dark red flavoured vodka Russian retreat. Now the lights have been turned up, and had given a ray of sunshine, and judging by some weekend nights a lot more life. They have regular DJs on the weekend, but it becomes more chilled in the day. The location's never ideal, but this is a good thing, people have to know it's here, it will filter out those tourists from Cla'am.
