The Cambridge Pub

Wandering around Soho in search of some a little different, my friends and I stumble upon the Cambridge pub On Cambridge circus. As you may or may not be aware this is an area overpopulated with pubs, all of whom seem to pull in the punters so I’m eager to see what makes [...]

V Vodka Bar

A dirty rip off of vodka revolution with a cumbersome bunch of weird shots which frankly taste vile.with names like helter skelter and seesaw it was very difficult to identify their contents without one of the precious shots guides. Lovely a shot of grenadine, vodka and gin for a pound, it almost feels like [...]

Cambridge Theatre Dress Circle Bar

The Cambridge theatre was playing the stage production of Chicago on my last visit and with tickets to seating in the dress circle we took it upon ourselves to head up to the theatre a few minutes early and wait for the doors to open. On arrival we were shown up [...]

Bar at Imax Cinema Waterloo

The Imax cinema in Waterloo is a centre-piece for the area and large and dominating as it is, some of its features leave a somewhat bad taste in the mouth. First off finding the entrance to Imax from above ground is impossible and I will shamefully admit I walked round the structure [...]

Travellodge Bar Cafe

Very quiet in the day with an almost bare bar and a few sad looking tables next to the reception so you can’t be too loud. So for a town famous for its stag does this is not really even the sort of venue you want to start off having a drink in [...]

Beach Boy’s Club

Never in my life have I walked into such an obvious attempt to pull in the cream of the underage crowd and bare-faced provide some of the poorest entertainment in Spain. The beach boys club is clearly the work of a few north England alcoholics opening a bar to stage a farce of [...]

Maggy and Wolfgang’s Pub

Maggy and Wolfgang’s is a bar set into the cobbled street of Marbella’s old town and is a little bigger than shed. Its selection behind the bar is a shadow of what can be purchased in any other bar in this world. From the looks of things there was one tap for traditional [...]
