The Glassworks(Lloyd’s No.1 Bar)

The Glassworks is a Lloyd’s bar (of the Wetherspoons chain) hidden in the new N1 complex in Angel. Its a simple trek up some stairs and along the walkway and you’re facing a bar with a totally glass front. Inside the path leads directly to the bar with table separated on either side- i assume its non smoking and smoking. The bar is very long with a massive number of drinks on display and some very friendly bar staff serving everyone very quickly. I think this Lloyd’s bar is a little cheaper than others I have been to but i opted for “Thatcher’s Perry” a 750ml of 7% pear cider for £3 , total bargain. We found a table and enjoyed the drinks finding the crowd a little loud and in fact realised the place has too few tables to accommodate the growing crowd.

Overall 7/10. Its one of the best deals near upper street for the price but I’d get in early, the doormen was counting people in at just 6pm on a Friday night!!

    This place is a joke. Devoid of atmosphere, overcrowded, characterless: It feels exactly how you’d imagine a bar in a shopping centre would. Ouch.

    Go when you are tipsy/drunk and you will have a wicked time! Music is banging and the dancefloor has NO posers!
