San Pino Bar and Restaurant

A big part of me wishes this restaurant bar combo didn’t serve alcohol at all. After a thirsty day I was eager to sink my teeth into a cold soft drink and landed on a cider by mistake. The restaurant itself does seem to serve up some culinary oddities which perhaps [...]

The Gate Clock Bar

On a stag do the last drink in Dublin needs to happen in the nearest pub to the runway. The Gate Clock bar is situated in Dublin airport in departures and is surprisingly well kept. There is a huge Copper beer-brewing vat-case suspended over the bar, where a courteous bar maid takes [...]

Anheuser Busch Brewhouse

Located in Terminal C this bar has been casually thrown to the side of the walkway for punters that cannot face another travelator without a pint. And to be fair there’s little else on offer here- 4 small taps, a fridge full of Budweiser and the odd bottle of wine but the [...]

Sports Bar

The Sports bar in the South Terminal of Gatwick Airport displays various signs of indication that its location is in some point in elevation above the rest of the departure lounge and indeed it is positioned in the crows nest of the airport. One must climb a sharp set of metal stairs in order [...]
