Walkabout Bar

This bar is accessible from two entrances in Covent Garden and the place is made up for 3 different bars. The from bar is a long narrow room with a  dance-floor at the front which requires complex weaving through persons ready to start fights to get to the bar which serves up several tired yet friendly bar persons with a good selection of drinks. A pint of Cider costs £3.10 so we are looking at average London prices. At the back is a surprising quiet area where the noise and music does not really penetrate where one can sit down and actually have a conversation. There is also a bar downstairs which can be hired for private events and is once again not on the big side.

Overall they have managed to squeeze a not-too-bad version of this chain bar in a fairly small space in Covent garden and they succeed in created a varied atmosphere with scope- the crowd could be nicer but then this is not the fault of the venue but the chain..6/10 for the effort the staff put in to keep those that can keep their head front of mind even in a crowded environment as this.
