The Headingley Taps

By my assumption this was a Wetherspoons that looks like a castle but in fact though it is a chain it is not chained to the largest bar brand in the UK. So from afar the place seems much to behold,a castle indeed. So you can imagine the disappointment when half of the [...]

The Hyde Park Bar

When a bar a long way a way from London takes a name as well known as Hyde park it is difficult not to be curious as to what it might be like. Well on the positive side it is popular with an indie rock persona. The interior is modern, the crowd [...]

Cafe Del Mondo

This cafe gets probably 100 per cent of its business from the enormous Olympia conference hall over the road. The cafe is pretty much a single file queue down to the stumpy till with a small swarm of tiny chairs with accompanying tables at the back. The place is run very much like [...]

The Red Lion Pub

Trudging through the back street of piccadilly is a peaceful mission in the dark but a difficult one if you have a destination in mind, as close to Piccadilly Station as the Red Lion is, it is quite difficult to find if you are at the tail end of the Monopoly pub Crawl. [...]

Dream Time Arena Bar

Sitting to the left of the main stage and making it that little bit further away from the arena entrance, the dream time bar doesn’t seem to get as crowded as its counterparts. The setup is exactly the same as its sibling temporary bars as a very long hatch served by a [...]

Walkabout Bar

This walkabout is fairly large. On a Saturday night the street fills with the under aged as try tart themselves up to get inside. Within is a sea of young drunken students, very male dominated with women dotted around like buoys in the open sea. Some of then men masquerade around in masks, dancing [...]
