The Verve Club (Covent Garden - London)

The Verve Club

Closer to Leicester Square station than actually near Covent Garden itself, The Verve plays along as a club but sits far more in the bar category. The main room consists of a number of tables with comfortable seating and a long bar with chandeliers overhead featured inside red tubes, which give it an [...]

Pj’s Bar and Grill

On the Fulham road is a bar restaurant combination called “Pj’s” which sounds like some kind of American diner where in fact it is a very old style restaurant with tall imposing bar facing out of some big shop-front windows. Inside a small crowd sits chatting noisily at the bar and around [...]

The Ackhorne Pub

A traditional pub in the middle of York yet set back into one of the quietest side roads that I have ever had to privilege to wander down of a Saturday night, as one swaggers away from the rumbling student crowds. Within the Ackhorne are local ales, served in the traditional manner and [...]

Bloomsbury Bowl

This is a crazy crazy venue, well hidden in the loopy streets behind Russell Square station. Quite literally a world of entertainments to suit all, but the bowling, i must add, needs to be booked in advance. So what else does this venue offer? Well after paying the entrance fee you make your way [...]

The Lowther Pub (York - Yorkshire)

The Lowther Pub

A student pub swamped in the educated and young broken up onto two floors, each with its own bar with more people arriving as if from nowhere throughout the evening. The doormen and bar persons are all friendly enough but the music inside descends into very light rock, indie and emo music with [...]

The Victoria (Mornington Crescent - London)

The Victoria

The Victoria is a particularly well sheltered pub from the rest of buzzing Camden nightlife and as such you would assume it was piping with old men, ale and flat-caps but instead it proves to be a cosy hideaway for a trendy selection of people and young professionals that want to turn down the volume on their evening [...]

The Banker

A traditional pub popular with guess which group of people? Yes that’s right, bankers and city folk relax in their over-priced suits, lining the sides of the veranda outside the front, into the small hall within and up on the first floor as the pub begins to wind around corners in an attempt to [...]

Goose at the Queens (Liverpool)

Goose at the Queens

A two floor pub, standing right in the middle of the pedestrianised centre in the heart of Liverpool. This pub feels fairly new although it tries to give off a flavour of the traditional with a quite upbeat, friendly barmaid and a good service. The bar is actually fairly well priced although there is not [...]
