Guidebook for London
Drinks & Nightlife
Although not much to look at from the outside this is simply one of my favourite places in London. The owners are the best. They will shake your had when you walk in, make you feel right at home and pour you a nice glass of water whilst placing drinks menus down in front of you. They have a small but perfectly formed selection of drinks (alcoholic and non-). Live music too!! Be sure to drop my name as they like to welcome my guests.

This gastropub has a really nice vibe. A more typical pub towards the front with a restaurant at the rear. If the sun pops out then their beer garden is lovely and gets sun until late. They do a pub quiz on a Wednesday.

My favourite coffee shop. The Cuban themed food is simply incredible. For lunch, be hungry when you arrive so you can tempt yourself with the baked eggs!
