If you really want to be abused and rub shoulders with London's top 100 young offenders then this is your place! On the outside it seems to be a nice lively place to have a drink with friends until one wannabe hip hop star decides he has something to prove and starts terrorising the only decent people inside. While my partner was sitting at the table enjoying a glass of wine one of these yobs violently smashed a pint glass on the table and threatened to kill her!! Why? We still wish we knew! No thanks to the so called security and management as they even refused to call the police and managed to let these people leave calmly while stopping us from calling the police ourselves. It seemed as if they knew these people and wanted to protect them and seems to be an underground place for these kinds to hang out... One quote from the manager was "don't worry this happens all the time, thankfully no-one got hurt this time " We will definitely wont be back and advise people not to unless this is your kind of establishment. chrism30 - 22 Jan 2012 15:07 |
Visited this place for its outside tables - first pleasant day of the year so was nice to enjoy an outdoor pint. Unfortunately the place is pricey and only imported lagers were available on draught - not really my sort of place so probably wouldn't go back sussexboy - 20 Mar 2011 21:33 |
Truly awful. Loud, pretentious, over-crowded, badly designed, useless barstaff, populated by people who are too ignorant and self-absorbed to know any better. There are a dozen places within a ten minute walk that are far superior so I've no idea why you'd go here. ChapmanBaxter - 21 Mar 2008 21:01 |
Another modern trendy bar... Not too bad as far as they go but typically expensive and rammed at weekends, although the downstairs bar provides a little more breathing space and booth seating. Nothing special. shindigger - 22 Nov 2006 10:41 |
This place was packed outside last Wednesday, with after office workers & once I got past all the letches (agree with the meat market comment previously) I met my friends downstairs in one of the booths. Not too packed but filled up really quick.. Service was quick & food was really good, music was a funky mix all night & made the atmosphere feel like a Saturday night... Way too hot in there later so we ended up sitting outside for the rest of the evening. I was expecting worse reading the past reviews but was pleasantly surprised! Not sure I'd brave it on a weekend night though. NWLondon_Girl - 30 Sep 2006 20:55 |
