Luckily we found some stool seating by the front and were able to enjoy some beers and take in the ambiance. There's an upstairs that is accessible by a very very narrow staircase which even has handles for support, all part of the fun lol!! Beer: We tried out the Guinness (great pouring process!), peroni, and a local ale which the bartender allowed me to sample. He was very helpful and walked me through the different ciders they had in stock and even how you could add fruit syrups to sweeten the flavor. What makes this place even more memorable was the helpfulness of the young guy bartending. He helped us plan how to get to Gatwick airport extremely early the next morning and we owe him a big one!

Very busy, but thankfully they have a second floor. We had a reservation and seated upstairs. Love the look and the vibe. I of course went with fish and chips and was thrilled at how good it was. My wife had garlic chicken and loved it. They have a full line up of beer, but because of the surprise heat wave went with water. There are lots of pubs to choose from, but The Red Lion has political history and even surprise visitors that come by.

The pub is downstairs and the restaurant is upstairs. It's cozy with nice views. We had the shared pies, which was a great way to sample four different pies at one sitting. It was a great option for us. I wasn't in love with two of them. Our cocktails were tasty.

A complete waste of my time…read more Came in for St. Patrick's Day, looking for both dinner and drinks. Asked the server if I needed to wait to be seated. She said there was open seating. I take a seat and wait for server to come by and take my order. Fifteen minutes or so pass, and several servers walk past me. No one stopped to bring me a menu, or even acknowledge that I was waiting. Finally, I saw the same server and asked her was anybody going to come by to take my order. She told me that orders are to be placed at the bar. I asked her if the kitchen was still open, and she said that they also don't serve food. Jesus.... If patrons have to order their own cocktails, why are their servers present at all? Moreover, why isn't there any signage indicating to patrons that this establishment is both self-seating as well as self-service (well, placing your own order at the bar)?

Waterloo Tap has a fine selection of beers and a few choice ciders, of which we sampled some really tasty options. I'm sure, like many places, it was a rotating list, so my picks would probably not be the same as yours, but that's part of the mystery of going out, yes? Sitting under a bridge while enjoying a beer and crushing a delicious burger and chips? Had both a calming and exciting vibe. Like being in an exclusive club carved out of the bridge. If only every day could be as delicious. And a final shout out to the bartenders. Extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Exceptional service.

LAST WEEK!! Get down here!…read more It's the pop up that popped up in May, then why and how have I only just visited? I wish I had gone earlier so it couldn't been my summer haunt. This is an elaborate venue. All the fun of the fair with a circus/freakshow feel about it with olde posters donning every wall. Candy floss, sweets. fair ground rides, actual freak show, theatre and lots and lots of bars. There's ample outside and covered seating. Subtly lit in the darkness you could see couples making out in some of the outside booths and friends perching together in stationary bumper cars. The atmosphere was chilled and upbeat. On a date night with the mrs, we booked ourselves in for Fasinating Aida. I would highly recommend you all do the same. Book yourself in for this topical musical comedy and enjoy the quirky atmosphere before it disappears at the end of the month.

I only had one - the Bocal (Grey Goose La Poire Vodka, fresh pomegranate seeds and lemon juice, sugar, St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur). It was served in an impressive tall glass and tasted fantastic. Great mix of flavours. They supply little nibbles of wasabi nuts, rice cakes, nuts and olives on each table and replenish them regularly. We really appreciated this as we were hungry! Service was good and would definitely go back if in the area.
