set into the side of the Trocadero this 5 storey bar/club is a great place to spend an evening. A good cocktail menu with fast serving times and the bar and nice toilets. A little on the pricey side but its to be expected from this area of town. The crowd is quite upmarket [...]

Situated beside East Finchley station, this rather large pub is shadowed by a large bridge that makes it way over head and darkens the outside of the building. Inside is a spacious airy environment with quiet music with the building split into two areas. The left side of the front door is more [...]

Bucks Head
The bucks head is one of those pubs you walk past on the high street but never venture inside.

Bar @ UGC Cinema
Yes, who would have believed that there was a bar in this cinema? And a good thing it is too for theres nothing worse than having to wait in a cinema for the movie to begin snacking on your popcorn only to discover it gone even before the film has started. The [...]

The Slug and Lettuce
Located next to the london eye this high street pub is clearly looking for the businessmens wallet and I was a businessman last time i entered its abode. The glass front doors tempt you into a world of hard varnished floors and similarly other polished customers who seem to glint with the [...]
