Jetlag Bar (Fitzrovia - London)

January 26th, 2012 · No Comments

Jetlag Bar

Jetlag was billed as a slightly upmarket sports bar – cocktails and “street food” rather than beer and burgers. In the event it sold both, and was a pretty good venue to watch a game. The screen was huge, and there was plenty of comfortable seating to settle into. The food was pretty good [...]

The Cricketters Pub

This is easily the nicest pub in Enfield, hidden down a quiet country lane just down the road from Enfield Chase and the Enfield canal and park, the exterior has comic cues about the world of Cricket and inside the theme continues. Giant wickets and cricket balls, bats and uniforms with pictures of [...]

Philly Steak Bar (Las Vegas Strip - Vegas)

February 5th, 2011 · No Comments

Philly Steak Bar

Incredibly even in an oasis like Las Vegas where bars clubs and casinos are in their plenty, there are still bars that are more decrepit and backward than those that choose to shoot into the Hollywood wedding chapel over the road and get hitched. Emerging from the stratosphere casino I begin walking down [...]

Fox Sports Bar and Grill (Seattle - USA)

Fox Sports Bar and Grill

There are plenty of places to eat and drink in downtown Seattle and Fox’s bar and grill was perhaps a hasty choice for some hungry diners. The initial entrance is a small room with some stairs leading down to a large basement area with swarms of (mostly) men watching sports across [...]

Air Bar Stratosphere Tower

To date this is the most elevated bar I have ever had the pleasure to drink in. Perched an enormous 109 storeys above the las Vegas strip on the top floor of the Stratosphere tower, air bar has been equipped to just take those grabbing a passing of the immense view, the [...]

Rockhouse Bar (Imperial Palace - Vegas Strip)

December 11th, 2010 · No Comments

Rockhouse Bar

The rock house is smaller than it would appear from the main strip. It sits out the front of the imperial Palace- seemingly blocking the view of this casino. Out front, bar persons scream and shout at the passing crowd to bring them inside, offering novelty plastic guitars full of frozen cocktail. Inside “beer [...]

Urban Golf Bar

Soho has more to offer than meets the eye, take for instance the Urban Golf venue, a basement affair with virtual golf on large screens to be swung at by real golf enthusiasts - bring you own clubs or borrow their’s. The lessons or open golf is a pretty good price and alongside [...]

Sweeney’s Bar (Ruislip - London)

Sweeney’s Bar

A bit of a rough old pub. We just so happen to enter this venue in the middle of a football match and it seems all eyes are fixed on the many screens around the room. In fact I am not sure I have seen a room so crowded in the middle of the [...]

Ruislip Rugby Club (South Ruislip - London)

September 3rd, 2009 · 1 Comment

Ruislip Rugby Club

A rather rowdy yet friendly bar coupled with a mess hall and gardens scattered with tired picnic benches sat before a Rugby field. Saturday afternoon can see some 60 odd lads fill this venue - large in stature, often with blood on the face and unspoilt smiles by a days game. Surprisingly football [...]

Bar 38 (Gun Wharf - Portsmouth)

May 2nd, 2009 · No Comments

Bar 38

From the beautiful views of the portsmouth harbour and gunners wharf is a stark contrast of drunken readjints groups of men who tear down the prominade along the canal and settle at the chrome tables outside Bar 38. This rather common, rough chain bar feels very much like a yates but without the signatory [...]
