Possibly the best beer garden in London, includes a two floor converted barn with sofas out the back
This place is deservedly busy everyday of the week - great food, great drinks and free wi-fi. The butterscotch and banana cake is particularly good
Walk up to the expansive rooftop to find deckchairs, wrought-iron furniture and and benches filled with a sun-seeking crowd from the Shoreditch brigade. Leer más.
Quite a find in this part of town. Classy cocktail joint. Get there before 11pm to avoid paying on the door. You don't always need a reservation.
Even great in the winter with the fireplace and plenty of seating. Escape the cold with a Wandle!
The pub itself is tiny, but if you go there on a sunny day then head out to the beer garden. With heaters in winter, these guys and their beers will look after you all year round Leer más.
The Prohibition-era premise of serving cocktails in teacups is the first surprise you’ll encounter once you find the bar’s entrance. The address may say Rathbone Place, but the door is on Charlotte. Leer más.
Cabaret venue in an old gentleman's toilet. Amazing, yet pricey, cocktails including an absolutely gorgeous espresso cocktail that comes in a tea cup. Head down on Tuesday for open mic
You absolutely *have* to book in advance - and don't wear a suit. Fantastic inventive cocktails & hip atmosphere.
Kooky little bar - feels like your stepping into someone's living room, except the dainty tea pots are full of cocktails. Utterly splendid.
Tucked away in a quiet place on southbank. Nice during day - music can get a bit loud at night, especially on weekends. Worth a visit!
awesome little boozer off the beaten track and away from the trendies. But trendy in itself. food looked good. Friendly staff. pingpong table and outside drinking :)
Excellent jazz on Sundays. Make sure to get there early to grab a good spot! Usually starts at 10.
Yoga on Mondays, swing dancing on Wednesdays (don’t worry if you’re without a date, these guys switch partners – true swingers), open mic on Thursdays and people kitchen on Sundays. Leer más.
Best kept secret on the Southbank. Grab a jug of Pimms, park yourself on the grass and you'll feel a million miles away from the tourist commotion going on downstairs.
While perhaps not as traditional and cosy as other leading clubs, the Vortex is a light and friendly performance space which offers a great platform for some of the world’s leading jazz players. Leer más.
Cracking old school cafe with no pretence and good homestyle food. No tourists either, they're all in the steakhouses...
Great place to get away from the hoards of theatre goers, cocktails, wine and naughty bartenders Leer más.
Great place to hang out for an afternoon with a coffee and a sandwich/cake. Free wifi and Jazz (sometimes live) too.
"This old fashioned pub spreads over two floors. The ground floor is a large pub that serves casual food, in a light and airy room. Upstairs is a more formal dining room." Leer más.
From the basement bar to a secretive roof garden under the stars, this is a good alternative to Koya, Barrafina or Polpo. Metro gave it 3 out of 5 stars Leer más.

Superb view of the London skyline. Tower Bridge and the Tower of London lit up at night.
one of the best rooftops I have been in London - the fireplace just tops them alls!
Go down the stairs and you will feel like you have been transported into an old hacienda in the heart of Mexico. Best drinks and best crowd, busy even on a Monday night!
Reminiscent of a Twin Peaks cabin with moose heads, mirror balls, and retro wallpaper, this hidden basement bar is delightfully quirky. Leer más.
Great place for drinks after work. Has an awesome roof terrace over looking Regent Street and West London
One of my favourite Soho pubs, if only because it's large and there's live Jazz downstairs. Very helpful staff, good draught selection. Just mind your bags for pickpockets!
Calling this place 'a gastropub' is not very accurate. It's a proper, grown up cocktail bar with an individual and smart cocktail list, good service and superior bar snacks. It's very good.
I love this place... and its nice caipirinhas! Don't miss the 2 for 1 drinks before 8pm!
Crazy golf in a bunker under the gherkin. Great fun. Couple of great little places to grab food and drinks too
