Nordic Bakery and Bar

A rather strange scandinavian venue sits on golden square in london sandwiched between the trendiness of soho and the toft qualities of the piccadilly. Behind the thick wooden door is a cafe, wine and beer bar,meeting point or whatever you want to call it. Essentially a large centre table surrounded by smaller wooden [...]

Bbar Bar and Restaurant

Sitting on what can only be described as a nightmare junction for pedestrians is Bbar. From outside Bbar looks like a small but comfortable and cosy dining room. However it is secretly a very nice bar to behold. Head inside and you will be led down some steps into a darker but [...]

The Glass House Stores Pub

From outside this Samuel Smith’s pub looks very much like a 300 year old shop front, frosted glass and aged oak. Within is a very narrow passageway which quite unaccessibley runs past the bar. Down at the back of the pub is seating of which there is rarely any available. After [...]

The Tottenham Pub

The first thing to note about the tottenham is its location. Just outside tottenham court road station the place lives it life like a rock in a river, among the ebb and flow of theatre goers.
