I've recently started working at an architects firm nearby and everyone goes there for lunch at least a couple of times a week. The food is good quality sandwiches, burgers, nachos, etc. hand cut chips to die for...and for �4.95 including a soft drink....its a bargain....there's a happy hour every day but apart from that it's not so expensive. I bought my colleague a pint of Theakston for �2.90...that's not too bad in the City (is it...?) My wine was �4.30 for a very large glass. Our company likes this place...it just got new lights and paintwork this week too xxx PaulaRose - 17 May 2010 12:11 |
Found ourselves standing outside this place watching the Smithfield Nocturne Bicycle Race on Saturday, and ventured inside for refreshments. I agree with last post, great location, good outside pavement vibe, but when I have to resort to drinking overpriced Guiness instead of draught bitter, it always gets the thumbs down. goldenglory - 9 Jun 2008 11:46 |
I can't comment on what it's like at night, but when I visited for a lunchtime drink recently it was incredibly depressing. Maybe it looks better in darkness, but the daylight showed up tatty furniture, chipped paint and a lot of dust. Thank god for the tables outside! It's a weird wedge-shaped building in a great location - it doesn't make sense to let it get in such a state. anonymous - 6 Jun 2008 02:38 |
Charterhouse used to be a nice, quiet little bar a few years ago. However, it has veered strongly into the �trendy� territory in the last couple of years, I guess to rub shoulders with similar neighbouring �trendy� venues like Fluid or and Fabric. I found the service has got sloppy, the bland beer and lot more expensive and the bar became rammed and loud � which isn�t good for such a small venue. Still, if you enjoy this kind of thing, and know the finite differences between trip hop, acid-jazz, funk soul and the like, then you could do worse. AleKing - 28 Jun 2006 17:00 |
Looks like people either love, or loathe this place. I sit firmly in the 'love' camp. Always a good crowd, nice single girls aplenty, reasonable drinks, good DJs upstairs on Thurs/Fri/Sat nights, open til 2am..... can't ask for much more really. Never fails to disappoint (me, in any case). anonymous - 8 Feb 2006 12:58 |
