Went with two mates, £40 per round for three drinks, extraordinary. Stayed for three rounds though, wasn't going to let them get away with it. Pleasent bar but ridiculously expensive.

1 x single G & T, 2 x single rum & cokes, 1 x daiquiri = £29. When asked why the drinks were so expensive, we were told - there's free music. Well then, it's clearly not free. We were also told it was a singles bar and later saw a fifty something hitting on two twenty somethings. Urghh... Plastic glasses - tacky. A bar festooned with cartoon images of the owner made the whole thing seemed like one massive vanity project that punters were paying for. It is intimate, and the music was fine, but the extortionate bar prices mean I won't be going back again.

Janet's Bar is much more than a pub! Good selection of bottled beers, whiskeys,spirits, wines and terrific cocktails. Great staff, live music and enthusiastic clientele. Very friendly, everyone talks to each other. And Janet is a riot!My new local.

Wonderful late night option. Excusing the pricey drinks the service is always good. Live music on most nights

Absolutely fabulous. I have been coming here for a good 5 years and I love it. It's open late which is always a plus as some of us work until stupid o'clock and Janet is the hostess fantastique. The beer is rrrrrrrrreally pricey but by the time I usually go there I'm over that and often you get some munchables and a little bit of live music in the end corner thown in aswell. It is small but very friendly. Unfortunately, as in many watering holes the urge for some punters to turn into pricks after a few drinks is all too tempting - but pray you're in there when they do and watch Janet in action - it's like watching Steve Irwin wrestle a rhino. Brilliant.
I am one of the endangered species you call Londoner and I too feel at home in this trendy but laid back haunt.
