The Metro Restaurant and Bar, Clapham

I really like this place. It is cramped and a bit camp and always playing billy holiday and tom jones, but it's alright. It's quite dark, with twinkly lights and small tables. The french cafe look. It's somewhere to go with a close friend, boyfriend...your mum etc. Food is nice and simple, bistro, gastropub, no pasta...�9.95-15.95 for dinner and a good wine list. Sometimes they have a good roast on a sunday and sometimes they run out. The waiting staff are sometimes pushed, so the service isn't fast after you first sit down. But the kitchen is quick. The only downer is the discretionary service charge. 12.5 % It can't be doing enough business expense dinners to sneak that in and most of your bill is wine anyway ...oh well.
