| can't make my mind up about the place.. i think i like it but i can't work out why. Its absurdly average in every sense and offers nothing to attract me other than being on the way home from the station. Not sure what its lacking, maybe a strong cocktail list but everything here is o-k. thomasgx1 - 4 Aug 2008 16:04 |
| utter rubbish. this is the sort of place that is killing good bars and pubs. rediculously small and badly laid out standard alchol range at slightly inflated price tried the food once and it was poor and overpriced. it is doing well at the moment but one suspects this is due to the KH being closed for refurb. as i have said before about the smoke bar which is looking for similar clients if this is the sort of place you want to go to then go up the road to clapham where they do it so much better. its a shame as i live almost next door but i'd rather walk to Balham or down to the KH/Frog westyw9 - 15 Apr 2008 13:43 |
| I did hear a rumour that it was opened by a guy who owns a load of rental properties in the area and wanted to attract a more professional crowd to the area and so could charge more rent. I don't know if it's true but I think it's certainly a possibility. I've been in there a few times since moving to the area. Not much to say really the place is ok the drinks are ok not a great deal of choice if you don't like lager but ok. I did find the soft drinks horrendously overpriced though. I've never seen the Wii in use even when I went in for the Wii tennis competition they advertised. Also the price I saw was £5 for half an hour which seems like an almighty rip off considering how little they actually cost. Overall though the decor is ok, the staff are very good, it's never been a problem to get a seat or get served so it's alright. The crowd are ok your never get any trouble out of them but I doubt you'll get much of a conversation from them either and the atmosphere is more subdued calm tham vibrancy. I'd say if your a local it's alright for a couple of drinks during the week when you don't want to go too far or to start the night of with and as a meeting point but I wouldn't plan a night around it or make a trek to get here but then i don't think they aimed for that when they opened it. theoneandonlyjoe - 7 Apr 2008 14:07 |
| Been here a couple of times now and enjoyed it, refreshing to find somewhere nice in Bec. Definitely a young person's bar, but from what I've seen the clientele don't seem too poncy. £5 rents you a Nintendo Wii for an hour downstairs on Sundays and Mondays, haven't tried the offer but it sounds like it could be a good laugh. irv - 14 Mar 2008 16:46 |
